Be Seen. Be Bold. Be Unapologetically You.

Portrait and lifestyle photography in Barbados for women, couples, families and entrepreneurs who are ready to show up exactly as they are.

Photography That Feels Like Freedom

You don’t need to be a model. You don’t need to know your angles. You don’t need to be camera-ready. You just need to show up, and I’ll take care of the rest.
My sessions are built around one simple idea: that everyone deserves to be captured at their most authentic, most confident, most unapologetically themselves.

Hi, I'm Korena Darnelle. Your Barbados PhotograpHER

I’m a female photographer based in Barbados with a passion for capturing people exactly as they are. Bold, soft, camera-shy, confident, or somewhere beautifully in between.

I know how it feels to stand in front of a lens not knowing what to do. That’s exactly why my sessions feel less like a photoshoot and more like a conversation with a friend who happens to have a camera.

What Clients Are Saying

It wasn’t just a photoshoot — it was an experience.

I did a professional portrait photoshoot with Korena, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The studio and space were well laid out and very comfortable. In addition to her photography skills, Korena was also good at making me feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, especially since I’m not accustomed to photoshoots. After a few tips and directions from Korena, it wasn’t very long at all before I was completely at ease and just relaxed into enjoying the session. Of course, I love my final images, and I can’t wait to book my next photoshoot with Korena. It wasn’t just a photoshoot; it was an experience.
