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 was over a year ago, in the hall at Oceanside Country Club as Kristy restyled her hair before her reception, when Kelly and I first crossed paths. I said I loved her dress. She said she loved my photography. And that she would be sending me an email when she got engaged. That email arrived just […]

After nearly three years of talking about it, I finally acted on it. I finally booked a ticket and boarded a plane and flew across the country to visit one of my very best friends and her precious baby girl. I finally did what I said I should, what I said was important for years. And I am […]

I’m going to go on the record as saying that spring should always look and feel this way! This past week, every morning when I’ve gone outside, I’ve marveled at the cool, crisp, fresh air. Usually by this time of the year, it’s sticky-hot — so hot that you feel like your skin might melt […]

Not every bride has asked my advice when it comes to her engagement session wardrobe. But somewhere along the way, I realized I really ought to share my advice with every bride as we plan the engagement session. I knew that my job entails a lot more than showing up with a camera, and one of […]

We were expecting to witness God doing Big Things at CONNECT. After all, these were some of the same people who had made the Pursuit 31 Conference such a life-altering event, and there were 42 couples traveling from around the continent to spend several days honing their marriages and seeking God’s will for their businesses.
