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.

There are a lot of reasons that I’m happy today: Danny and I are editing two beautiful weddings’ worth of pictures from the past two Saturdays, looking forward to a great engagement session this coming weekend — and today, our lovely couple Nikole and Arun took center stage on the fabulous Le Magnifique blog! Today […]

We held our collective breaths — and prayed nonstop — that the rain would pass in time for Amber and Daniel’s outdoor wedding and reception. We watched the rain fall that morning, moving the planned bridal brunch picnic inside, and we watching it rain again that afternoon, keeping some of our portraits under cover on […]

Sometimes when there’s too much going on or life feels a bit hectic and stressful, you really do need to just stop and smell the roses. Or photograph the azaleas. Whatever floats your boat.~ Laura

They spend so much time visiting St. Augustine for weekend getaways that their friends joke that Kristy and Nick must secretly own a condo in the nation’s oldest city. (They don’t.) They spend so much time there that it would make sense for Kristy and Nick to actually get married in St. Augustine. (They thought […]

It’s been five days since Bravissima died. That morning was peaceful — after some coaxing, she came outside to graze in front of the stable, enjoying the bright sunshine soaking into her black coat. We fed her until that always-hungry little mare seemed almost full: Her breakfast, a whole bag of carrots, three apples. Then […]

Kaci wasn’t sure she would be able to get through her vows without crying, but this morning she belted out her promise to love him for a lifetime as confidently as any soul-singing diva. Frank said the fact that they were getting married didn’t really hit him until their rehearsal last night, but today he […]
