I’m Luisa, a portrait photographer based in Charlotte, NC, specializing in studio portraits with a simple, classic, and timeless approach.
My journey into photography began in 2019 through self-portraiture. Testing lighting setups, exploring camera techniques, and experimenting with composition became a personal form of self-expression. Over time, I developed a deep love for the art of storytelling through images, often using myself as the subject. Self-portraits taught me the nuances of light, perspective, and connection—skills that I now bring to every session.
Today, I create both self-portraits and studio portraits, maintaining a minimalist style infused with creativity and wonder. My approach combines artistic vision with a dedication to capturing meaningful, enduring moments for my clients.
Accomplishments:
- Awarded Sony Alpha Female Plus Grant for my Transformative Self-Portrait project.
- Finalist in the Microsoft Surface Original by Design Contest, recognized for innovation and creativity in visual storytelling.
- Earned a certification in lighting and posing under Sandra Coan, a leading expert in the photography industry.
