About Karla
Karla Marie was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico; raised in Florida since the age of two months. From very early on, her love for the arts was clear. At the age of seven, she started playing piano, and she excelled in art, music and creative writing classes. In high school she took a creative photography class and later obtained her Bachelor's degree in Film Production.
Photography was always an interest, but she really started pursing her career after receiving her first Canon DSLR camera as a graduation present. Since 2012, she's been building her repertoire as a professional photographer and videographer. From 2012 to 2014, she worked as a photographer at the Walt Disney World theme parks. In 2015, she worked for ESPN as an associate content editor for ESPNU and the SEC Network. Since then, she’s been working freelance as a photographer, videographer and editor.
Her goal is always to show character, details and emotion. The laugh between friends, the way a groom looks at his new bride, the innocence and playfulness of children. You will often see her climbing whatever she needs to or laying on the ground to get the shot!
Karla currently resides in Orlando, FL and also works as a Licensed Massage Therapist. Her passion is people and she has worked extensively with those who have chronic illnesses and special needs. Whether she’s behind the camera, or in her scrubs providing touch therapy; her goal is always to make her clients feel the love of Christ, and cared for.
