About

I’m Carmen, the photographer behind Carmen May Photography. I work best alongside thoughtful couples, planning teams, and families who value a calm, intentional approach and a well-paced experience. My style is natural and true-to-color, focused on preserving how moments genuinely felt, while remaining attentive to timelines, design elements, and the people who matter most. My husband, Chad, often joins me as a second photographer or videographer, allowing us to offer a seamless, cohesive way of documenting wedding days and the seasons of family life that follow. Together, we bring a steady, collaborative presence from planning through delivery, so our clients can trust that every detail and moment is handled with care.
