Hi, I'm Carina, an Australian living in France since 2001. Before France, the Canary Islands were home, and before that, a sunny seaside resort in southern Portugal. I wasn't a person who gushed about living in France, actually I was quite the opposite, I dragged my feet through the black volcanic sand on the beaches in Tenerife and cried my heart out about moving to a new land. I loved Spain ... but I never knew how much I would enjoy France. Life has changed a lot since those early days when I first arrived in this Gallic land, and like anywhere in the world, there are challenges. But once France embeds in your skin, you know there is no other place you want to be. 

I love that I live in a world filled with crunchy warm baguettes and salted butter and feel everyone should make a trip to the City of Light to people watch from a Parisian café at least one in their lifetime.

Living near Paris, I spend my days taking photographs. Images are sold worldwide through multiple outlets including but not limited to; IKEA, Freedom Australia, PrintsandFineArt, Art.com, Wayfair, Artbol, Amazon, Walmart, Target, Joss & Main. I have private clients in Europe and my work has appeared on The Paris Apartment, Broadsheet Australia, Global Traveller Magazine, Condé Naste, Société Perrier, Bonjour Paris, and the award winning Aer Lingus inflight magazine, Cara.

Prior to Europe, I had a previous life in newspapers and magazines. Marie Claire Australia, MODE (now Harper's Bazaar), along with other wonderful titles that haven't survived the world of new media.

When I'm not capturing the allure, charm, beauty and magic that is France, you will find me hiking toward mountain tops, or seeking out a decent cup of coffee in a quaint corner of Paris.

I hope you'll enjoy seeing parts of the world through my lens.
