Hi, I’m Karen.

Thanks for stopping by.

I love collaborating with my clients and getting to know them. I do whatever it takes to put my clients at ease by making photography fun, creative and enjoyable. I work closely with my clients to take their project from concept to completion. My photo projects have taken me across the street and around the globe. Working under pressure or in a fast-paced environment comes second nature to me.

Based in Little Rock, Arkansas, I have degree in journalism with a photojournalism emphasis. I began my professional photography career at the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette where I was a full-time staff photographer for more than 15 years. Overall, I have been a full time, professional photographer for nearly 30 years. I love what I do.

While on staff with Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, I was embedded with Arkansas' 39th Infantry Brigade as part of their peace keeping efforts to help rebuild the war-torn country after the second Gulf War invasion. After being on assignment for two months in Baghdad, Iraq, there's little that rattles me. When people shoot at you, literally, you have keep your cool. If I can handle Baghdad, I can handle your project.

When your next project needs commercial video production, I can help with that too. Along with my husband, we co-own BackFocus Productions, a full service video production company where I act as producer and as their on-staff photographer when the project needs still photos.

When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me in my garden, hiking something …. somewhere. You can also find me on my yoga mat deepening my own 26-year-long practice.

I’ve been married to my husband Mike McCall who is my biggest cheerleader and my worst critic. I’m a mom to three, four-legged fur babies: Tucks, Willow and Sully. I love to cook. I also make a crazy-good, roasted tomato & pineapple salsa.
