LAURA YANG

I've
always been
storyteller.

But I never set out to be a photographer. I was (and still am!) going to be a writer. And then as I worked toward that writing goal, someone put a camera in my hand and asked me to try telling stories with something besides words. So with an English nerd's love for character and tone, a romantic's love for poignant beauty, and a realist's love for imperfection, I dove in.

I've
always been a
story-teller.

That was back in 2010.

Since that time, photography has changed much of my life. It's brought me some of my dearest friends. It's reshaped the way my husband Danny and I view serving others. It has even literally taken me around the world. One thing that hasn't changed: my soul-stirring desire to tell stories that feel so real you're sure you knew them before you heard them. Or saw them. It's my privilege to tell those stories for my clients, and for the generations of their families still to come.

With 2020 several weeks underway now, I’m just getting to reflect back on 2019, and just how much life changed. Danny and I became parents. And after years of photographing other people’s families, we finally started getting family portraits of our own. And making up for lost time, with four different photo shoots of our […]

It’s kind of becoming a recurring theme that I’ll blog a bunch of sessions . . . and then the blog will fall silent for weeks or even months at a time. A few years ago, daily blog posts were at the heart of my photography business. Now — things have changed! As our adoption process […]

One of my favorite parts of family photos at the beach is getting to see the way kids explore and enjoy being at the edge of the ocean. With this family, it was no different. We dug in the sand and twirled on our toes and turned cartwheels down the beach, all as the most […]

Two years ago, when this family came to town for a visit, we got together for a sunrise session so magical I didn’t know that we could ever match it. So when they came back into town last month, I was really, really hoping we would have another gorgeous sunrise, and that we could put […]

Beach portraits during vacation are some of my favorite things. Beach portraits with a high school senior with fond memories of the beaches in Ponce from all her visits to Florida to see her grandparents? Better and better! I met up with Lauren on a gorgeous evening, and she made Ponce look even better than […]

Each spring for the past six years, Danny and I have headed up to the Connect Marriage Retreat at WinShape Retreat in northwest Georgia. While there, we usually end up shooting some portraits for another couple or two. This year was no different . . . except that this year, Danny and I didn’t shoot […]
