Carmen Walden is a graduate of the Southeast Center for Photographic Studies in Daytona Beach, Florida. She is a wife and a proud mother of four. Growing in a large extended family she learned to appreciate the value of recording memories of the ever changing facets and stages of family life.

-"The driving force that inspires me to ask people to let me create images of them... to truly let me see them through my camera lenses, is that I am fascinated by the alluring prospect of sharing with my customers the nervous laughter and the butterflies induced by the process of having your portrait made... It's a unique experience for me as an observer and a privilege I am always grateful for... I believe my images express my passion for the art of painting with light."
