Meet Lani :)
Hi, I’m Lani Lee… long time photographer and first time mom.
My photography is for those who want polished authentic moments, with a little curation through preparation.
Together as a team we consider thoughtful locations, styling, lighting, props, and who your business or family is at the core during this season of life.
Whatever we make we create together.
Welcome to my website!
Xx LL
Unfiltered, unforgettable, and anything but ordinary.

“As a new mama, I found so much solace in meeting Lani Lee—and especially in being captured by her lens. Postpartum is such a tender, transformative time, when maiden becomes mother, and Lani gets it! She has a gift for holding that transition with deep care and making it beautiful. She doesn’t just take photos—she helps you see yourself again, in all your evolving beauty. 🥹
I love having these time capsules as a mama with my baby— I’m already nostalgic for this time and now I have forever images.
Lani is a girl’s girl in the best way—she knows how to make you feel good, how to bring out your light, and how to take a truly flattering photo. I felt seen inside and out.
Did I mention she’s also so witty and funny? Her warmth and presence made me feel so at ease—it was like being held by a friend who just happens to be an insanely talented artist.
She’s hilarious, she’s thoughtful, she’s cool and I’m so grateful to know her—not just as a photographer, but as a woman, a mama, and a creative force.”
Intimate, candid, moments turned into editorial magic. Think cozy chaos meets creative direction—with your family’s or small business’s real-life energy at the center.
NEVER REGRET
THE PHOTOS YOU DIDN’T TAKE!!
