Hey - I'm Carina!
I'm an independent East Coast photographer, entertainer, and creative visionary based in Atlanta, GA.
Originally from Asbury Park, NJ, I've spent the past decade immersing myself in the deep rock and soul roots of its independent music, film, and live entertainment scenes. I'm passionate about supporting others in their creative development and self-expression, and I get endlessly inspired by talking to people and hearing their stories. My mission (and hope) is to form introductions and provide a connection between the incredible creatives, visionaries, and storytellers I meet along my journey.
At the start of my career, I sang in bands and acted in dramas on different stages in New Jersey, and instantly fell in love with the vulnerable process of finding my true voice and giving life to new characters.
As I evolved in my journey, I transitioned onto film sets and became fully immersed in the world behind the scenes (with some on-screen cameos here and there!) Being a part of a cast and crew validated my need for community, and has become a focal point and pillar in all my work.
Being a curious person by nature (also, a Virgo), I became obsessed with logistics and wanted to better understand the moving parts of the production world and how they fuse together. This led me to further explore production coordinating, wardrobe and styling, BTS/unit photography, the art department, and more creative grassroots marketing. This opened doors for me to work professionally and collaborate on music videos, independent films, network television shows, live events, and so much more.
