Carina Walker, Houston Wedding Photographer
Where It Began...
My first memory of falling in love with photography was at the age of 7 while living in my home country of Buenos Aires, Argentina. My aunt would always share her Polaroid camera with me during her family visits and taking pictures soon became a symbol of our eternal bond.
Those images developed into souvenirs that validated our memories and still fills us with joy and happiness. My mom and I would spend cherished afternoons organizing and grouping the photos into our photo albums as we watched the stories unfold.
My career began with a photograph of two close friends, the couple were so pleased that they sent the picture to all their friends and those copies circled the globe.
“You must do this as a profession!” the couple insisted. “You have a gift!”
Motivated by this encouragement, I proceeded to acquire certification at NYU for Wedding Photography. Then moved forward with becoming certified with Professional Photographers of America (PPA). Now I continue to enhance my creativity through mentor-ship with tutors from around the world including Italy, France and New York.
Each photograph I take is a piece of art and an expression of love. My lens captures the moment and creates a lasting memory in time. Vivid portraits reveal the unique essence, personality, love and tenderness developed through an array of circumstances. I strive to creatively portray each person in the most memorable & beautiful ways.
Like a caterpillar that turns into a beautiful butterfly, the art of photography continues to develop and is as unique as the individual and their situation.
Forever changing... Forever improving...
