I’m Karl! Lover of travel, food, anything outdoors (especially gardening), and explorer of new experiences. I’ve called Naples, Florida home for over 16 years, and I’m proud to raise my two amazing boys here—alongside Bokeh, our sassy little Yorkie who definitely thinks she runs the house.
I love everything Southwest Florida has to offer—sun, surf, sunsets, and all the pizza I can get my hands on. (Yes, I’m still on the hunt for the best slice in town. Right now, it’s LowBrow in East Naples, but I’m open to being proven wrong.)
Photography isn’t just my job—it’s my passion. I’ve been shooting weddings and love stories across SWFL for years, and there’s nothing more rewarding than capturing those once-in-a-lifetime moments.
Also, yes—I will ask for sparkling water at dinner, and no, I’m not sorry. Bubbles make everything better.
Fine Art Creative Work
Welcome to my world, where photography meets personality! I'm Karl, a passionate boutique branding and headshot photographer. Amidst snapshots of life’s beautiful moments, I embrace the real, the candid, and the genuine.
My journey in photography is deeply personal, shaped by my love for storytelling and my desire to connect with people. Capturing the true essence of individuals and their brands is not just my job; it's my joy and inspiration.
As you explore the personal photos on this page, you'll get a glimpse into my life, my passions, and what fuels my creativity. Each picture tells a piece of my story, helping you get to know me both as your potential photographer and as a fellow storyteller at heart. Let's discover and create together!
I just love this photo. Maybe because I'm in love with the person in the photo with me

Lake Michigan. So cold the camera actually froze. I had to cuddle with it in my jacket to thaw it out. Anything for the shot right?
My signature dancing moves include (but are not limited to) : finger pointing, jumping and general bouncing. I take photos, I don't keep a rhythm.
