Behind the Lens with Lacie
Howdy, y'all!
I'm Lacie! Locally grown and raised in the Dayton area. I currently live in Kettering, Ohio with my sweet husband, our daughter, and our Great Dane Barkley. I do work a full time job, well actually 3! During the day I manage a transmission shop and towing business, on top of my photography!
When I was a teenager and I was asked what I wanted to be when I graduated high school, I always said I wanted to be a nurse. That was never in the cards for me as I had my daughter at 21. I ended up working for a blood bank for most of my young adult life and finally put that career to an end to pursue my dream and passion of photography. Since then, I have built a bigger clientele base and perfected my skill to provide great quality photos for a great rate!
I specialize in outdoor, natural light photography. However, I am not only limited to outdoor. My skills allow me to capture moments from engagements, weddings, maternity, birth, newborn, seniors, dance, families, events, birthdays, boudoir and more! I have sessions that fit every family, budget, and schedule. I have only ever shot sessions for clients in Dayton, Ohio and surrounding areas BUT I am more than willing to travel for ANY occasion!
I've been photographing couples, babies, and families since 2011. The birth of my daughter fueled my fire of wanting to share my gift of art with others. Sharing my gift has allowed me to give confidence and unlimited smiles to my clients through my lens. I have taught myself everything about behind the lens and behind the computer. Every image in a gallery is hand chosen and hand edited by yours truly!
What I strive to capture in each session is the love, laughter, humor, and every emotion of my clients and their family. Posed photos are always so beautiful, however the candid shots are my favorite. They speak your truth and, honestly, who really likes to hide who they really are! I love engaging with parents and their littles. I love being able to crack the shell and bring them out to explore and make the experience fun and light.
Thank you for investing your time into learning a little bit about me. I hope the stars align to where we make a connection and I can capture such special memories for you and your family
xoxo Lacie
