Oh Hey!
I am the owner and lead photographer at Araya White Photography. I live in Freestone County, Texas in the same small town I grew up in. I am currently engaged to the best fiancé a girl could ask for. He supports me in everything I do, especially photography. In addition to photography, I am also a full-time college student at Sam Houston State University majoring in Education B.S. However, even once I graduate, I will continue on with my photography business.
I have loved photography since I was a young girl. My parents encouraged my photography dreams and even bought my first camera for me. From there, I have expanded my knowledge about cameras and editing. I currently have two cameras I use for sessions, a Canon R6 and a Canon Rebel T6I.
I want to give all of my clients more than just a new Facebook Profile picture; I want to show the importance of all the little moments. Maybe you're engaged and looking to find a photographer to capture your big day or in the diaper changing stage and you want to document your beautiful family. No matter where you are in life, I can help you remember all of those precious details you'll want to remember forever.
If I sound like your type of girl, head on over to my contact form so we can chat some more!
xo, Araya
What makes me different?
What separates me from other photographers, aren't they all the same?
The answer is no, not all photographers are the same. This is such an important question that you, as a customer need to ask.
My answer is Passion vs Money - I have seen that many people jump into photography for some quick cash, but aren't actually passionate about it. I want to give you that perfect picture, I want to make sure your edits look amazing, and I want you to be happy with what you are receiving. I am passionate about my work, and I want it to look good for not only you but myself as well.
