A PRIVILEGE and honor

Lainey Claire Photography is truly honored and grateful to receive this award. It is a privilege to be recognized, and I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported me along the way. This achievement would not have been possible without the encouragement, guidance, and inspiration from my mentors, and loved ones. Most importantly, I'd like to praise Jesus for making a way for me to live this dream of mine. I am deeply appreciative of this opportunity and look forward to continuing to grow.

Testimonials

Lainey made all of our wedding dreams come to life, and did so much more for our day than simply photograph the wedding! she helped behind the scenes when my dress clip busted, constantly made sure my mangled train was picture perfect hah, advocated for US, captured details and moments we weren't able to see, and so much more. looking through our gallery makes me feel like i am reliving the most wonderful dream - even the moments i wasn't present for. 10/10 would recommend <3

Taylor & Tripp

There was no question on who we would choose to capture the biggest celebration of our kids.  The entire process was truly seamless! Lainey's professionalism and phenomenal talent behind a lens made beautiful lifetime memories for our family.  Lainey makes every effort to make you feel comfortable and makes a point to include your ideas. We never worried on the wedding day because we knew Lainey would highlight every special moment, thank you Lainey for being there on our journey with us!

Lainey is the sweetest person ever and makes the photoshoot so much fun! Lainey has taken my prom and senior pictures and they came out amazing, I couldn’t recommend a better photographer than Lainey!

I will be using her as my photographer for every major event in my life 🤍.
