Vision Behind the Lens
Whether they're chasing golden light on a secluded beach or styling the perfect look for a campaign, Bárbara and Carson always show up with a shared vision. "Yes! Carson and I always come with a vision before every shoot," Bárbara shares. "We talk about locations and what vibe we want, and go from there." That synergy is what makes their work stand out—raw, real, and full of life.

Life, Slowed Down 
Juggling modeling, influencing, travel, and motherhood might sound like a lot—but for Bárbara, it's a blessing. "I love it so much! This new season of having a baby made me slow down and embrace every moment. We used to do quick trips and rush through places, but now we stay longer and really soak it in—with our baby boy and still making time to shoot." Motherhood has added a deeper layer to her life and work. “Being a mom is the best thing that ever happened to me.”

Favorite Places to Create
Ask Bárbara where her favorite places are to shoot, and her eyes light up: "Impossible to say just one! Brazil (my home!), anywhere coastal in Europe, and Hawaii!" For Carson, the sentiment is similar—chasing beauty where land meets sea, always with a camera in hand.
