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.

It seems as if, whenever I’m at a photo shoot, or whenever I set friends or acquaintances up for a quick portrait, I usually get comments about how fast and confidently I pose my subjects. Well, it’s kind of like brushing teeth. Brushing your teeth is a habit, right? Something you do pretty regularly, that feels instinctive to […]

Fall is fickle in Florida. We get crisp blue skies and plenty of crackling sycamore and magnolia leaves scattered on our lawns, but cool autumn air is hard to come by. On this fall afternoon, when the littler little man was exactly one month old and the bigger little man was spiffed up like a […]

A couple years ago, when I photographed her older sister, Kellie tagged along for Kaitlyn’s shoot. Kellie was interested in photography — creating it, not just being in it — and then this summer I heard from Kellie’s mom. She was going to be a senior this year, and it was time for her own set […]

Family portrait sessions with littles are always exciting. But how about a family portrait session at the beach with three little men — all under the age of one — and two excited pups? It was so much crazy fun! We met up for beach portraits on a gorgeous evening, and what unfolded was perfect. If […]

It’s so easy to get hung up on what is wrong, or simply imperfect. But not this month. This month I want to focus on the many, many blessings and gifts and reasons I have to be grateful; every time I start complaining to myself, I want to redirect my thoughts to things that make […]

Without fail, this is one of the highlights of my year. Four times, the Pursuit Conference has gathered on the hillside at WinShape, and four times I’ve come home amazed at how God works. If you’ve been following along on my personal Instagram page, you know what I’m talking about. And the truth is, I’m […]
