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.

We can’t keep it to ourselves — we have to share a peek into the styled shoot we did yesterday afternoon, with an absolute dream team of wedding professionals and two models you may just recognize. The theme, which Ashlee came up with, was “fruitful and abundant,” because that’s what we want our lives to be, […]

Last night we were happy to be invited to The Highland Manor for another great tasting for couples planning their weddings at Highland Manor, the Historic Dubsdread Ballroom, or at other venues catered by Dubsdread Catering. As always, it was a beautiful evening.I loved this understated feasting table under the chandeliers and the draping, which really […]

Chelsie emailed us this summer only a few days after Josh had popped the question, while their families vacationed together in the Keys, and we couldn’t have been more excited for them. We not only had previously met both Chelsie and Josh, thanks to Taylor and Jerry, but had photographed them both in 2012, before they were a couple: Chelsie […]

After an early birthday dinner at my parents’ house on Sunday, my brother told me there was something I needed to see. So we all trooped into the family room, where he turned on a VHS he’d found — an old home movie, first of his seventh birthday (highlight: as he listened to the musical candle on […]

It’s been almost five years since Danny and I celebrated our wedding. Almost five years since the butterflies and the beautiful flowers, the couldn’t-have-been-better weather and my too-tight corset. Heading into our wedding, I knew that not everything would turn out perfect (although I definitely didn’t anticipate getting locked out of the house and ending up […]

About a month before it took place, Adam began planning an elaborate proposal. It involved location scouting, a few white lies (as far as Mary knew, I was a friend of Adam’s from school and just wanted a couple to pose for my camera), love notes tucked inside seashells — which Mary collects — and the […]
