Photographer portrait, Carol Denise Photography 
Hi friends! I’m Carol. The photog and life-seeker behind the lens. 
I love to be a part of life’s little (and big) adventures; collecting, preserving, and sharing stories along the way. 
Who am I? 
  • I moved to the area in 2017 (originally from AZ with a little stop over in TX) and brought my creative passion with me. 
  • Some of my favorite photos are those with big, eye squinting laughs or those with ooey-gooey, hopeless romantic kisses!
  • I own way too many purple things and tend to collect succulents and coffee cups.
  • And l love that I found my hubs and forever home right here in New Jersey!
It’s truly an honor when someone invites me in to be a part of life's adventures - whether it be a wedding day, an anniversary, a unique vacation or a new home. It's part of your story and that makes it priceless! 
Thanks for coming to visit me here today. I can't wait to get to know you too! Take a look at some samples below of services I offer. Don't see what you're looking for or already know what you need? Submit an inquiry and I'd love to customize a package for you!
