Salted Grace Photography was created by the merger of Carolyn Ramirez Photography and Bianca Lorraine Photography. Each operating our own photography businesses, we made the exciting move to form as one. Not only are we creative partners in helping to capture special moments for our clients, we are also a dynamic mother-daughter duo. We have been abundantly blessed with a solid foundation which includes faith, family, and love. Each of us has a story to tell, we'd be honored to help tell yours!
Carolyn - Photographer
In 2002, my husband and I moved to Kyle from a small town west Texas community. We chose this area because we felt it offered not only great opportunities due to its natural resources, location, and room for growth, but also its hometown values of strong families, community, and schools.
When I think of things I am passionate about, photography, along with faith, family and love for others, always comes to mind first. Each singular moment that is captured with the quick snap of the shutter has the ability of helping to preserve a lifetime of memoires. From the first polaroid gifted to me when I was 10, to now and everything in between...I have owned a camera for along as I can remember. The stories that I could tell from years' worth of photos are endless.
I have been fortunate and proud to have been an employee of Hays CISD for the past 18 years (2005-2023). It has been a blessing to connect personally with many students and their families, not only during the regular school workday hours, but also in many aspects of their lives…covering extracurricular activities, organizational banquets, dance and sporting events, concerts and end of year/season shows.
I hope to continue my connection to and with the Hays CISD schools and support the students and their families in documenting and capturing important life events “through my camera lens” as my daughter and I take a leap of faith in this next journey! ~ Carolyn
Bianca - Photographer
I have lived in Hays County my entire life, having witnessed the incredible transformation that this area has seen. My parents made the decision to move to central Texas in 2002 with a goal of providing my brother and I with endless opportunities, both socially and academically. I consider myself fortunate to be part of such an amazing community.
For as long as I can remember, my mom made sure to capture every part of our lives through photographs. I have assisted alongside her for many years as she would capture memories for others during photo sessions. In 2021, I acquired my first camera and began following my mom's footsteps.
I have a fur baby named Ziggy and, not only is he the most gentle and loving Boxer, he has been by my side since 2012. At the beginning of 2023, I received the greatest blessing of all when I found out that I would soon be expecting my first baby...a boy! From the very moment he was born, our lives forever changed! Our littlest blessing has become our greatest blessing! I am forever thankful that I was chosen to be his mommy and I look forward to the many incredible memories that we are sure to create together!
Our lives are filled with so many nexts...whether it is a new beginning or the end of one and everything in between. Every new door that opens creates an opportunity for a lifetime of memories. We hope to be able to capture some of those moments in time for you! ~ Bianca

"Carolyn has photographed both of my daughters and her work is exemplary. From personal sessions to high school events, she can do it all. Her attention to detail is captivating. She has an amazing ability to get the most out of every photograph. We have enjoyed working with her and she has become a great friend of ours. We were pleasantly surprised when she had her daughter Bianca photograph for us as well..."

"...Bianca is a "chip off the old block" and took the most beautiful photographs of my Senior last year. So it is a no brainer for this mother/daughter duo to now be in business together as Salted Grace. They will continue to capture memories for their clients that will last a lifetime. Kim S."

"Carolyn is great! I had a photo session for my college graduation and the photos were beautiful to say the least! The session alone was a great experience; from the positive feedback to finding different locations on campus that she thought would make for a perfect background, all while powering through the heat just a few hours before my graduation! Carolyn was able to capture my accomplishments of my time while at Angelo State University perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer!"

"Our daughter, A'niya, is a toddler and we all know that toddlers patience can be very short! Her sassiness definitely showed through, as Carolyn was able to capture her personality so well. It was a great experience! I highly recommend Carolyn & Bianca to anyone considering graduate photos, family photos, etc. These photos and memories are something that my family will cherish forever!"
