ORLANDO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

the process

Coffee/tea dates with my couples is something I love.  Its a great way to get to know each other and for me to answer your questions.

I am able to walk you through the entire wedding day-- from the moment I arrive to your hotel room to the sparkler exit.  

Its also a time where you get to spill all the special wedding details you've got planned. (PS I LOVE getting sneak peeks of your wedding dress eekkk) 

02.

coffee date

Once we've decided that we are the right match, I'll send over all the legal stuff-- contracts and deposit info.  This will allow me to block off your date and decline any further inquiries for that day.

03.

save the date

Engagement sessions are SO much fun. Its the time to celebrate your love and freeze this short, season forever.

I also love it because it helps build our relationship and make you more comfortable in front of the camera.

Another major plus is that you have photos to share for Save-The-Dates, engagement parties, and rehearsal dinners.

An engagement session will, also, show you how I work. From the way that I pose you, to the terms that I use, its a great way to see how we interact. It also ensures that we’re the perfect fit for each other.

04.

engagement session

Approximately 2 weeks prior to your wedding, I'll Facetime you to go over your final details: timelines, special requests, etc.

I'll also send you a questionnaire that allows me to serve you to the fullest on your wedding day. 

I want to make the day as stress free as possible and the way to do so is for me to be 110% prepared.

The day is finally here! Time for you to relax and let me capture your day!

The reviews

I have never felt so beautiful. As a mom, it’s easy to put ourselves last. Easy to concentrate more on our families needs than our own. When Lanh mentioned doing a solo session, I was a bit hesitant . But I am so glad I did. I felt so pampered and so pretty.

Being pregnant isn’t always sunshine and roses. My body has changed so much and sometimes that’s hard to accept. When I look at the images Lanh created, I see myself differently. Although my body has changed, it is amazing and it is growing another beautiful daughter.

Thank you so much, Lanh, for allowing me to see the beauty in my pregnant body and for making me feel so gorgeous!

Where do I begin? This is my first pregnancy and it has been a little rough, to say the least, dealing with all the COVID.  I was so lucky to find Lanh. I sent her an email and she emailed me right back. She fit me in that weekend at 38 weeks pregnant!!

I had been feeling so self conscious of my changing body and she made me feel beautiful which, honestly, is priceless. I was completely pampered from the moment I walked in, got my hair and make up done, and got to wear her fabulous dresses. She made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera and took the most gorgeous pictures!

I cannot wait to come back for a Mommy and me shoot! If I could give her a 10 out of 5 I would. Thank you so much for reminding me of the beauty in pregnancy and capturing these memories that I will cherish forever!

jailee + kevin

My maternity session was one of the best moment of my pregnancy. This was my first pregnancy so everything was new to me and I had hard time accepting my new body. Gaining 30LB in such a short period of time was very hard on me physically and mentally, however Lanh helped me celebrate my body, my journey of becoming a mother and also capturing the love between my husband and I.

We had to cancel wedding due to covid back in 2020, and we decided to start our family instead. It was always my dream to wear beautiful dress and take pictures. Lanh made sure I got that and I cannot thank her enough for this.

I am so happy that I got these amazing photos to remember and share with my son one day!

If you are not sure about maternity photos, I truly recommend booking a session with her not just to get beautiful photos but also to treat yourself and prepare for labor❤️ Celebrate your body’s amazing work is so important, I am so happy to find such a great photographer who taught me this and I cannot wait for next maternity or family photos we can take!

I’m not sure if I have enough words to describe how wonderful my experience was with working with Lanh.

From the introductory call, Lanh made my husband and I feel so comfortable.

She made us feel like we’ve known her our entire lives and were the bestest of friends. She welcomed us with opened arms and paid attention to everything we said we wanted…

Shoot day came and I was a little nervous but showing up there she immediately put me at ease.

Both my husband and I never felt like we were being photographed by an amazing professional photographer but rather a really close friend.

But truly, I do not have enough words to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation to Lanh.

She is one of the most understanding, easy- to-work with, and  genuine person I’ve ever had the pleasure to be around.

Lanh was incredible to work with and very personable. She not only captured these beautiful photos but she made the whole shoot a fun experience. Most of my pregnancy I had struggled with my body changing but Lanh helped me embrace the changes. I swear I have never felt more beautiful than I did on that day! This was truly an experience I will never forget and now I have these gorgeous photos to cherish forever.

sarah + robb

Lanh was incredible. My husband and I are very awkward camera people but her wardrobe skills, coaching, encouragement, and the entire vibe of her studio were so impeccable it put us at ease immediately. Her turnaround times on proofs and final images were also above and beyond what we expected, and having everything included  made the stress level of getting everything taken care of nonexistent.

Lanh was also super responsive over phone/text and email. I cannot recommend her enough — or Mel, the hair & makeup artist!  (Be warned: However many photos you think you're going to buy, it's going to be more, lol. They're that good.)

jen + josh

I was very skeptical at first to take maternity pics because of pricing and just being super picky in general. 

Lanh has been such a wonderful photographer and person to work with! I regret NOTHING! She made me feel so beautiful and made the session fun! I am so glad I was able to meet her and have her capture a beautiful time in my life !!!! The hair and make-up was divine and she nailed the look I wanted. These photos are an investment but so so so worth it!!!! All moms should have these types of memories in their homes! Thank you Lanh <3

Kristina

OH EM GEEE!!!

From the initial conversation to the final delivery of photos, Lanh was nothing but EXCEPTIONAL!

Hair and make up alone made be feel like a movie star. Then stepping in front of the photography backgrounds and having her assistant toss my dress train into the air, I felt like an absolute model.

Prior to the photoshoot my husband wasn’t really sure why we needed maternity photos, let alone why he needed to be involved. During and after the shoot, he totally got it.

Lanh captured our love for each other, the love for our growing baby, and the excitement for what’s to come in this new chapter of our lives.

I’ll be forever grateful for the artwork and memories she created for us.

Lanh, one thousand times, “thank you”!

Suzanne & Jeff

Everything about my experience with Lanh was nothing short of fabulous. When I was looking for a maternity photographer, I knew I wanted someone who offered a client closet. While there are a few photographers who offer that, none of their websites were as detailed and thorough as Lanh's. She was very helpful as I tried on dress after dress in her studio as we worked to find the perfect ones to make me feel amazing.

As the day of the shoot drew near, she kept me updated with email reminders and again was always very timely with her responses.

Lanh thinks of everything and will have you covered from head to toe. Hair and makeup was flawless and will make you feel like a goddess.

For the actual shoot, she brings a pop-up tent so you can change into your various outfits and made us feel so at ease. I know most people will say they aren't naturals in front of the camera or know how to pose but again, Lanh will guide you the entire way.

Gallery delivery was super fast as was her turnaround for the final images that we selected. And lastly, the photos are beautiful. You will not regret working with Lanh!

I don't think I've ever felt more beautiful. 

These pictures made this entire pregnancy feel like what I always thought being pregnant should feel like. With the COVID virus we couldn't do anything. But I wouldn't trade these pictures for all the baby showers in the world. I think thanking you is such an understatement. You are so wonderful and made me feel so confident!

katie

Lanh was amazing and went above and beyond during our maternity photoshoot. Her photos are breath taking and look like they came out of a fairytale. She truly captures your family in a beautiful way and really listens to what your vision is.

This was our first professional photoshoot and we wanted to capture photos that were memorable for our family and son. She made sure everything was perfect during the session. I loved the gowns she lets you try on-it made me feel so beautiful for the day! She knew how to capture the best photos and took different shots with the lighting. She is amazing and an expert at professional photos.

I can’t say enough good things about her. Our photos came out so beautiful. She also made us a professional photo album and 2 beautiful canvases that are now hanging in our living room. I’m in love with our photo albums and look at it constantly!!!I’ve had so many compliments from friends and family. Book her, she is worth every penny!

samantha + chris

AMAZING! 10 STARS!

Lanh's gown closet was extensive and I got to CHOOSE MULTIPLE LOOKS FOR MY SHOOT! Her photos were stunning and while I was worried about the price tag a bit, if you consider the cost of the dresses you would purchase plus consider cost for hair and make up it's a deal.

Day of the shoot she brings a portable tent for you to change into your different gowns. She sets your shoot at what she calls "the Golden hour." This seemed silly at first. But, trust the professional!! The lighting was perfect!! She was patient and directed me and my family.

The icing on the cake of an already amazing experience... the actual photos ( which is what matters, am I right). Ugh ...they were stunning! I was in love with all of them! You pay for what you get! I promise you won't be disappointed! Worth every single penny I spent! I cannot thank you enough, Lanh! Truly, your so gifted at what you do!! Still so in love with my photos!

judith

Where do I begin? Lanh was such an amazing photographer to work with. She was not only professional, she was super kind and patient as well. You can tell this is her passion because she puts her entire heart and soul into her work.

She was able to work with my crazy schedule and had everything set up from hair and makeup to finalizing photos and making sure all the details were just right.

I felt so comfortable around her and I think that is very important. I couldn’t be happier to have found her and my pictures are so absolutely perfect.

I am beyond happy with the final product. Thank you again Lanh for everything and I hope to work with you again one day!

ashley

The experience I had with Lanh was exceptional.

Lanh is such a patient photographer and the whole process went so smoothly for me. And that’s saying a lot bc I have an incredibly moody 2 yr old son who was definitely not willing to be cooperative. But Lanh was so patient with us and did not pressure us at all with him.

I told her I had very realistic expectations when it came to photos that included my toddler but she definitely worked her magic and we ended up with pictures I didn’t even think would be possible.

She’s such a calming presence and my husband and I felt so comfortable the entire time. Not to mention, the amount of absolutely beautiful dresses she has in her client closet is incredible!

Christine & richard

I had the most amazing maternity experience with Lanh. She does such amazing work and makes you feel so beautiful. I’m no model but she sure made me feel like one! She helped me pose and made sure each detail was right.

From the makeup to the dresses to her studio, it was a dream day. My pictures turned out even better then a ever imagined. I am seriously so happy I found her and booked with her. You won’t regret it!  

jillian

Booking my maternity session with Lanh was everything I could have ever dreamed of! I knew I wanted her to photograph my last maternity session even before I was pregnant.

The whole process was so easy and I didn’t have to worry about hair and make-up or what to wear! She has a whole wardrobe closet that clients can choose from. What’s even more impressive is that she did our summer session while pregnant herself! We were only a few weeks apart and she made sure that we were both hydrated and had rest in between shots.

Don’t even hesitate, if her gallery alone isn’t enough to convince you, her professionalism and just wonderful personality should! She is worth the investment!

micaela

Lanh is such a kind & talented artist who made me feel so incredibly beautiful during such a special moment in my life. Her maternity photoshoot package included such an amazing wardrobe to choose from. 

Overall the day of the photoshoot went very smoothly. My husband and I felt incredibly comfortable around Lanh. I think this was so important as it is such an intimate and special moment that’s being captured.

I am so blessed to have such beautiful photos that capture this season in my life. I will cherish them forever and I hope my daughter will too. Overall I am so happy I made the investment in an artist who had an all inclusive package with outfits and hair and makeup. It took the stress away from shopping for maternity gowns that I will never wear again. The convenience and low stress made every penny worth it and resulted in some beautiful photos.

brittany + corey

From the session with Lanh,  I able to have beautiful pictures of my daughter.  Also, I honestly have to admit, it rekindled a flame with my husband! Being first time parents was definitely an experience and finding the balance for one another was an obstacle. But having these pictures, I’m reminded of the amazing man that he is. I can’t stop looking at the pictures of him and our daughter together! I can feel my heart beating faster and I can’t stop smiling!

For me, it was stressful trying to plan a family photography session and coordinating outfits, but Lanh was patient with us and guided us through it all. She was amazing with our daughter! She got her to smile and that in itself made the experience all so worth it! I mean come on, what parent wouldn’t melt at the sight of their baby’s laughter and smile?!🥰 Lanh, thank you. Truly, thankful for your genuine passion with photography. Only a great photographer is able to capture what love would look like.

linda + khanh

I can not say enough how much we loved having Lanh as our wedding photographer! She was helpful every step of the way sharing her professional insight which not only made our photos amazing but helped relief some stress the day of the wedding.

Ladies we all know we only want to look our very best in our wedding photos after all these are photos you want to look back fondly and instantly take you back to that day. Lanh made me feel comfortable and even gave direction on how to angle my face arm etc to make sure I would love how I looked in the photos.

She was quick and percise we could not believe how good the photos looked when we got the gallery!

She offers a premium album as well which we have and we love to show it off the quality is amazing and we love having memories that are tangible not on a usb or dvd, something that we can share quickly with family members and friends. If you are in search for a photographer for your special day I HIGHLY recommend her!

janice + richard

I found Lanh and was so excited that she offered not only beautiful couture gowns but on-site hair and makeup. It was a one stop shop and I was only going to have to worry about showing up for our photoshoot.

The day of was super simple. I showed up, got pampered with hair and makeup, and Lanh was so attentive and helpful getting dressed. My experience could not have been better and our photos were amazing.

So amazing that we recently took some updated family pictures - some which included a 4 generations photo. The process was just as simple and easy as the first time despite having my mom, grandma, and baby joining the pictures this time.

Lanh displayed such care and patience when photographing the baby, taking breaks when needed if the baby was being fussy, and overall top tier professionalism.
