About Me...

           Photography has been a passion of mine for years, and since launching Laraya Cassandra Photography in July 2019, I've had the honor of capturing over 75 love stories across Missouri and Illinois. From the very beginning, my heart has been to serve each couple and family with genuine care, authenticity, and a relationship that goes beyond the photos.

           Life has only grown sweeter since then. I've been married to my wonderful husband, Kyle, for seven years, and in December 2024, we welcomed our precious baby boy, Titus. Becoming a mom has been the most incredible and joy-filled adventure of my life. Our home is also filled with laughter (and a bit of chaos) thanks to our two doodles, who keep us on our toes every day.

           My faith continues to be the foundation of my life. It shapes how I love, create, and serve the people I meet. Whether I'm behind the camera, out on a walk with my family, or simply soaking in the little moments, my goal is to live and work with purpose and gratitude. I hope that shines through in every image I deliver.
