Where do I start...Carolyn was amazing! She is a brilliant artist who takes pride in delivering the most exquisite images possible. She captures every detail and special moment! I told Carolyn what we wanted and she surpassed any of my expectations. With a wedding party of 20 my wedding was not going to be an easy wedding to shoot. We were in the heat during a August day in Corona, Ca. Needless to say it was hot. But it never showed on Carolyn. She was focused and very professional as well as fun loving and creative. It just goes to show that no task if to great for Carolyn Troadec! My husband and I feel truly blessed that she was the one documenting the most important day of our lives. She has this ease about her that makes you feel so comfortable. She connected with us right away and you could tell she really loves what she does. And it show in her incredible work. She became a wonderful friend through the whole process and I look forward to working with her in the future for any other special pictures we will need taken. After working with someone as talented as her i couldn't imagine ever using anyone else. Thank you Carolyn for being such a wonderful person and artist and blessing us with such gorgeous wedding pictures!

Carolyn was an amazing photographer!! She really listened to me and what I wanted and gave me exactly what I was looking for. She is so incredibly artistic and creative and she was able to put a better spin on all of my ideas and had wonderful ideas of her own. I could not be happier with Carolyn and the wonderful job she did. She also was able to turn the pictures around quickly which I truly appreciatedÂ… the anxiety was killing me! I would recommend Carolyn to anyone I know who gets engaged, married or just wants great pictures taken of them.

Carolyn was an absolute pleasure to work with! She truly captured our most special day with breathtaking photos. Carolyn has an amazing eye and is extremely talented. Her perspective is one of a kind, she is truly an artist. Carolyn pays attention to details and has the ability to see things in a very creative light. I am typically shy and I instantly felt comfortable around her as she has a warm and endearing personality. I believe photos are truly one of the most important elements of a wedding as you have them forever to reflect on. Shooting with Carolyn was a fun and incredible experience. I am so happy that we had Carolyn to capture our special day and can't thank her enough for making it so spectacular!

Troadec Photography's style was exactly what we wanted; capturing the emotion and the feeling of the day while being classicly stylish. Troadec Photography was reasonably priced for the services we received. Carolyn was very professional, and prompt and helpful in communication (email and phone) before and after our wedding. And of course the photos---they are WONDERFUL. My husband and I are thrilled with our photos, our families love them and our friends are very impressed too (a few have said that they wish they would have used Troadec for their weddings!). The photographers took plenty of photos before, during and after the wedding, spending extra time with us at the park between church and the reception. We ended up with about 1200 photos!! The slide show she put together was lovely AND as an extra bonus, Carolyn made a calendar of our photos and gave it to us as a Christmas gift! Troadec Photography was one of the best vendors we had for our wedding.

Carolyn Troadec of Troadec Photography helped create our wedding to be better than ever imagined, with memories that will last forever!!! Carolyn was with us throughout every step of the way to help create a small family beach wedding into something fun and elegant with fabulous photos to keep forever. She understood our ideas and what we wanted and added onto them to make the wedding everything we ever dreamed of. She captured all the right angles and definitely has the eye of an artist. She included a slide show with our song to send to all our friends and family only a few days after the wedding. I still watch it over and over again. We have never got so many complements as we did on our photos. Carolyn represented our sunset wedding to it's fullest extent in such a professional artistic manner. To this day she is still giving us ideas and advice for photo prints. We would highly recommend Troadec Photography. We had the most professional, fun, friendly and memorable experience with Carolyn!

Carolyn shot our wedding on Aug. 2nd in Long Beach, CA. We were looking for a photographer who would take images in a photo journalistic style - we wanted to avoid those stale stereotypical wedding shots. Moreover, as a person who gets nervous in front of the camera I wanted some who was patient, friendly and calm - basically "chill." We wanted to incorporate some "funner" pieces of our day and Carolyn was wonderful to accommodate those requests. As a person who comes from the "industry" Carolyn encompassed all of those traits and MORE. She is talented and creative. She has a wonderful eye and compassionate approach. We never felt nervous around her and it shows in our photos. She brought out our best side - as a member of our bridal party said, "She's magical! She made all of us LOOK GOOD!" I cannot say enough about her - her work style, direction, sense of editing and creativity have made for some wonderful photos. THANK YOU CAROLYN for capturing our memories in such a beautiful, elegant and fun fashion. We highly recommend her for her to photograph your wedding or special occasion.

Carolyn was just amazing. She was able to capture all of the little moments of the day while still staying behind the scenes. She has an eye to capture the shot at just the right moment.
Oh, and while I know I looked my really great on my wedding day, Carolyn's photos made me look fantastic! She captured my with the right angle and lighting. Plus, her editing process is flawless. You can't tell that she has "clean up" your photos!
Besides being an amazing photographer (who, by the way, have my pictures ready in less than a month after the wedding), she is an amazing person. My husband and I both felt so comfortable around her and were so glad that she was apart of our special day.

Carolyn did such a wonderful job capturing the story and emotion of our day. I was honestly surprised to see the photos when she was done because I hardly remember her taking them. I know I looked good, but she made me look amazing. The photos were delivered to us within 4 weeks of the wedding. We've already ordered some prints to frame and have an album on order. If you want someone who is unobtrusive, sweet, calming, and proffesional, Carolyn Troadec is your girl!

If you want someone to capture every aspect of your wedding, especially the details you may never see, Carolyn is the photographer for you! She aims to capture every emotion, image, and element from every angle. She almost never has to ask you to pose because she has an eye for anticipation and gets the picture at the perfect moment. I think, however, the best quality about Carolyn is that she makes things personal. She makes it a point to get to know you and your wedding party so that she can create the memories that fit you and your style. I have had many people look at our wedding album and everyone is blown away by the creativity of the shots and the impeccable intricate details. Carolyn also had extremely reasonable prices for the amount of time she spent on the pictures, both at the wedding and with touchups at home. I would recommend her to anyone, not just for weddings, but for all your photography needs

I have known Carolyn since her time in modeling. When it came time for my wedding I chose her and I clearly made the right decision! She was present and conscientious without taking over the day. Her focus and patience made me feel calm and beautiful. The photos were terrific! I was particularly impressed with her detail shots and her ability to capture the candid moments. Her presentation is lyrical and admirable and I would recommend her to anyone who wants a beautiful presentation of their special day! She is a true professional and I suggest you book her right away because pretty soon she will be scheduled solid!

About Troadec Photography


Carolyn’s love of photography began 18 years ago from the other side of the camera – as a professional model and actress. The experience of working with some of the best photographers in the world was priceless. Armed with an old Canon T70, Carolyn started snapping pictures as she traveled through Africa and Europe on her modeling assignments. One important thing she noticed is that when she was on a shoot where the photographer made her feel comfortable and beautiful, the photographs turned out great. This concept is the backbone of Carolyn’s approach to her subjects. Many people are apprehensive about having their picture taken and Carolyn’s warm and genuine personality help them to be relaxed.

Carolyn and her husband Bruno originally lived in New York City. She felt the California landscape was the perfect backdrop to her fresh and colorful photography, so they relocated to Southern California 10 years ago. Besides the invaluable knowledge garnered from her modeling and acting careers, Carolyn has taken numerous photography classes and seminars, including studying at the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. She has won numerous awards in various art competitions and has been published in several national publications.

Carolyn especially enjoys photographing weddings because she knows the images will be cherished for generations, and she always feels honored when she is chosen to document such an important milestone. The images from her own wedding 11 years ago were disappointing and she strives to give her clients better images than they could have imagined.

Carolyn continues to do some modeling and acting, which helps her become a better photographer. "It gives me better insight into both sides of the equation," she says. "Certain elements of photography cannot be taught. Although passion is necessary, it is not enough," Carolyn says. She explains, "when I put my camera up to my eye, the world moves in slow motion and is somehow more colorful, more beautiful, more innocent."
