From Dream to reality
My journey to brand photography
After years of teaching English in different countries I learned how unique we all are and how powerful photographs can be, so I fell in love with it! Since I’m a big fan of live music, I started photographing concerts as a hobby and learned tons in the process.
When I moved to sunny San Diego in 2015 I started photographing more people off stage using the beautiful natural light and amazing backgrounds the city provides. My images became brighter and more vibrant and lifestyle photography became much more attractive.
Since making Carina Fleckner Photography official, I have worked with families, couples, weddings, live music and events!
However, for a long time I hid behind the photos I took and my business wasn’t really growing. I didn’t even know the concept of having a personal brand. I thought people only wanted to see my portfolio and who I was didn’t matter as long as the images were the way they wanted them to be.
I couldn’t have been more wrong!
When I was building my website, I had no good photos of me to use. Selfies don’t really work for me and cellphone photos are just not an option when you’re creating something that you poured your heart & soul into.
I met a personal branding photographer who did my photoshoot and later became my mentor.
When I started using my photos and showing up more, my business started to thrive.
I went from hiding behind my camera to hiring photographers to help me build my brand and online presence.
Now I design my life around the freedom of being who I am, surrounded by positivity and creativity, and I want to inspire and empower other people to do the same and live the life they envision! My mission is to lift up other entrepreneurs that struggle with the same thing I went through.
I had a dream and now I’m making it come true. Through my photos I’m helping entrepreneurs step into their power and bring their vision to life.
Join me on this journey, fellow dreamers!
More than just pretty, on-brand photos
What makes me passionate about what I do is the transformation. I had a front row seat and I watched those images change how I saw myself and how the world saw me. I was able to step confidently into my brilliance and now I empower other talented business owners to do the same!
