About
Hello, my name is Carlos Kidd and I'm 29 years old. I'm a multi-talented individual who works as a Professional Photographer, Creative & Art Director, Director of Photography, Dancer, and Model. Currently, I reside in both New York and Los Angeles, and I'm open to traveling locally or anywhere in the world for work.

I'm passionate about all my creative pursuits, especially dance, which I've been doing since I was a child. I became a professional dancer in 2014 and have performed in various cities and countries, including Montreal, Barbados, and Jamaica. Additionally, I've taught dance in kids' studios across Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut. Two years ago, I started my photography journey and have gained valuable experience, growing my business independently.

During the pandemic, I shifted my focus to becoming a Film Director and Director of Photography, ultimately starting a production company with my partner, Emma. Specializing in Portrait, Product Placement, Lifestyle, and Fashion Editorial Photography, I prioritize efficiency and quality in all my projects. I value trust and communication in any collaboration I undertake.

If you're interested in contacting me or viewing my creative work, you can find me on social media at @carlos.and.emma, @x__carloskidd, and @lighthouse_visions.

Working with Carlos and Emma was an incredible experience. They were highly professional, attentive, and showed genuine care throughout the process. Their organizational skills were impeccable, and they did a superb job styling the team and curating our product photos. The entire production was flawlessly executed, and my team and I were able to simply show up with our models ready to shoot. CARMA Creative Productions exceeded our expectations and successfully captured our brand's essence. We were thrilled with the results, and the photos boosted our sales significantly. Carlos and Emma made our lives stress-free by effortlessly bringing our vision to life. We cannot thank them enough for their exceptional work.

When Lighthouse & CARMA Creative Productions were just starting, I had the pleasure of working with them. They are an incredibly kind group of individuals who possess a unique advantage of being familiar with both sides of the camera. Over time, I have observed their growth in the realm of photography and videography and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed! I highly recommend considering them for your next project.

I was a part of a campaign that was created by Lighthouse & CARMA creative productions, and my experience was fantastic. Carlos and Emma played a pivotal role in making it a success. They helped us with outfit selection by sharing lookbooks and accompanying us for shopping. During the shoot, they offered us valuable guidance, making the process smooth. The end result was stunning, and I highly recommend them.
