Lover of life and all things lifestyle photography…and yes, I love to laugh!

My passion is capturing the essence of who you are and the moments that matter most. Whether it’s a personal milestone, a cherished memory, or simply a celebration of you, my goal is to create authentic, heartfelt images that you’ll treasure for years to come.

Hi, I’m Carol…

I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in the darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.

Join the Waitlist – Express Headshot & Mini Branding Days

I don’t run these sessions often — just once a quarter — and they always book out quickly. My Express Headshot and Mini Branding days are the perfect way to update your photos without committing to a full session.

These sessions are short, simple, and designed to give you exactly what you need:

  • A fresh, professional headshot that feels like you

  • Or a handful of lifestyle branding images to keep your socials, website, and marketing looking current

Because I only release a limited number of spots each quarter, joining the waitlist means you’ll be the first to know when bookings open — before they’re announced publicly.

Add your name to the waitlist below and you’ll get early access to secure your spot.

  • I can't recommend Carol Bouwer Creative enough! From start to finish, Carol made the entire photoshoot such an enjoyable and relaxed experience – and that's saying a lot because I really don't like being in front of the camera.
