My happy place is behind the camera... where is yours?
Hi I am Caro, owner and photographer at Photos by Caro. I am happiest when I am behind my camera whether that is in my studio, the local park or beach or pretty much anywhere in the world.
I have loved photos as long as I can remember and have spend many hours pouring over books and magazines, studying portraits and other forms of photography. I remember my grandfather asking me what I would like to do with my life in my late 20s. I said a travel photographer! It took another 20 years to turn that into reality when I opened Photos by Caro.
When my two children (now 13 & 9) were babies I remember looking at the 1000's of photos I took, keeping the dozen or so that I thought were any good, even less that I was prepared to put in a frame or send around friends and families. The ones I did get right I would study, working out how I had got it just right! I challenged myself over the following years to study photography part time doing as many online and in person courses as I could.
The fact that I now get to photograph not only my own family, but amazing clients and friends is just such a privilege.
I know, that the portraits I take of parents with their children, grandparents with their grandchildren and the amazing people who come into my studio, will be treasured and looked at for years to come.
When I get to houour the love and beauty that is in all people how can this not be the best job in the world and my happy place!!!
