Portrait Photography

Welcome to Carle Photography, a full-service, fun and quirky Portrait photography studio. We specialize in personalized photographic solutions for you, your family and business.

Our Studio:

Our studio is a fully-stocked 1000 square feet of pure creativity, with stunning natural light for daytime shooting, and ample studio lighting as well. Our studio is climate controlled for your comfort. Plenty of free and easy street parking and private gated parking available. Studio hours are by call-ahead appointment only, hours are 9 am to 9 pm. Please call to make appointments or to ask any questions you might have.

We provide in-house photography, editing, proofing, and retouching of prints and files. We can even help frame your special images. We also do in-house same day proofing, and can create secure online web galleries for you to view, share with family, and purchase from. Our portrait printing services include anything from 8×10 Leather Photo Albums to small 5×7 prints to digital images. We also can provide some same-day services such as portraits, prints, and photo gifts. We  generally work in digital, but can work in medium format film on request.

Have an idea for a shoot, and need help creating it? We can work with several hair and makeup professionals, and can also provide props, backgrounds, and other artistic accoutrements to help you capture the image in your mind’s eye.

Our Approach:

Photography is more then just picture taking: Your portrait is a slice of your soul, a snapshot of your true self. Our artists spend the time to learn what your goals are, creating a very unique photographic experience. We can answer questions and help you through any concerns you have about your portrait session or photographs, from start to finish. If you want an elaborate portrait session filled with hundreds of daffodils, or a simple poster of you with your favorite pet, we will work with you to create a custom photography session just for you.
