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 were sitting at a white-clothed table one evening last week, enjoying another dinner under the rafters at the Pursuit 31 conference, when my new friend Amanda startled me away from my crab cakes. “You know, you should start another blog. For photographers.” Amanda wasn’t the only person who said something like that to me […]

First impressions, you might have heard, are everything. Lucky for Molly and Oscar, they disproved that theory. It’s lucky for them because they’re having their destination wedding at Tavern and Chapel In the Garden in  less than three weeks. And yet when they met about five years ago as co-workers at Disney, Oscar thought Molly […]

This afternoon, I wanted to tackle the not-always-so-simple topic of what you should do first when you get engaged. Yes, I wanted to plan my entire wedding in those first few days and already be on my honeymoon by the time the weekend rolled around, so I know how it goes: You’re anxious to get […]

At weddings, the emotional moments aren’t just the ones at the altar or on the dance floor. The memories a bride and groom and their family hold dear aren’t only of the walk down the aisle or the grand exit through a sea of well wishers. The emotional moments, the powerful memories, often come in between […]

There is something about mountains that makes this Florida girl’s heart sing. I have miles and miles of beaches at my disposal. Ocean views galore. I can get my fill of sand between my toes and salt air in my lungs any time I want — and oftentimes, when I don’t, too. But my heart […]

It has never failed: When it rains on an afternoon when we’re supposed to shoot an engagement session, no matter how dark the clouds, no matter how ominous the thunder, we’ve always ended up with at least a peek at the sunshine behind those clouds. Today was beautifully true to form.~ Laura
