Discover Warren, Photographer
My photography style at Carol Wild Photography is somewhere between lifestyle and documentary. I capture genuine moments in an artistic way. Photo shoots are unscripted, but I will help you out by providing you with some direction. I know that a lot of people feel awkward being photographed (trust me, I get it – I feel awkward, too!) so my top priority is making everyone feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera.
