Carole Duebbert is an award-winning photographer with over 25 years experience in the field. Originally from Philadelphia, her studies took her to Germany, where she immersed herself in its art and culture. After returning to the United States, Carole landed in San Diego, where she still resides. When she took up photography, she enrolled in black-and-white photography classes at San Diego City College. Then her life changed forever when she looked through a macro lens. A whole new world of surprises and adventure opened up. Carole uses light and design to capture the essence of a subject. Each image tells a story, often of mystery and surprise, mood, and sensuality. Carole also loves color, which she expresses especially in her food and florals.
