I am so glad you're here!
My name is Olivia, owner of Olivia Laurell Photography
I currently live in Putnam county and typically shoot in Charleston and surrounding areas! I specialize in families, seniors, and weddings but I just about do it all :) I have been taking pictures for almost 7 years and it brings me so much joy!
Before we tell your story... Here's mine!
I am 28 years old and work my day job as an OB/GYN sonographer. Yes, I get to look at babies all day- and yes, it is the coolest job ever. I actually started doing photography as a side gig to help pay for college and then loved it so much I didn't want to put the camera down. I am newly married to my sweet husband, John (he is the best) and I am also a proud auntie, my nieces are the joy of my life! I am a Christian and always strive to glorify God and love others- through photos and beyond. Some other things that make me happy are: diet Pepsi, shopping, and coffee, concerts, and animals :)
I am a little bit of a workaholic but that is because I am so passionate about both of my jobs. I mostly think I am passionate about making people feel comfortable, and loved, and beautiful. As your photographer, I promise to do just that. I am a bubbly, outgoing, ADHD-ridden fool who has no shame in making fart noises to make your kids laugh!!
Your photoshoot shouldn't be a painful experience.
I take so much pride in how I guide my clients through the session. I promise there will not an awkward moment of, "what should I do with my hands?" while also prompting you in ways that produce real, beautiful moments! I love getting the comment from husband's who hate having their pictures taken, "That wasn't bad at all," or your kiddos have so much fun at their session they didn't even notice/care they were at a photoshoot. My goal is to make your session feel like a date night or playtime with your kids.
