accolades
- “It doesn’t matter how great a concept we have if we don’t execute. And that’s why we work with Carl again and again.”
—John Emmert and Gail Schoenbrunn at Boathouse
- “Carl is a talented shooter. He has an amazing eye, great instincts and always brings a unique perspective to any image. But Carl’s real talent lies with his people skills. He has a way of disarming his models and finds a way to get them to give natural uninhibited performances. More importantly he disarms the client, makes them comfortable with the process and always exceeds expectations.”
—Mark Bappe, Creative Director, Conover Tuttle Pace.
- “Carl’s work speaks for itself. But more importantly, he’s a pleasure to work with—that rare artist who helps you understand what it is you’re looking for, though you couldn’t quite put your finger on it yourself.....it’s a few words over. Sue me. I could write volumes about you.”
—Michael McClung, Art Director, Fidelity Investments, send.com
- “It’s rare to find a great photographer without a great big ego. Carl’s talent with a camera is obvious. Beyond that, he listens and is patient. When we work together, nothing gets in the way of good work. It is always a pleasure.”
—Rick Rawlins, Creative Director, Rick Rawlins/Work
- “Carl, is a top notch photographer with a great sensibility. A sensibility that engages with the people he shoots as more than just subjects, but as people - real people. By doing this, he allows their personalities, stories, and emotions shine through every photograph. I believe Carl’s calm demeanor and approachability, is a huge contributor to how he accomplishes this, but it also makes him a pleasure to work with.”
—Paul Yokota, Senior Art Director, PJA Advertising + Marketing
