Photographing a Photographer | Iryna and Lance

There’s a special kind of honor in photographing a photographer. It’s a privilege to know they trust you with their vision and memories. Especially when you know they see the world through a creative lens themselves. This week, I had the pleasure of welcoming Iryna and her husband Lance to my Henry the Green Truck Sessions. Overall, it was an absolute joy.

Iryna is a talented photographer, and earlier this year, I had the chance to associate at a wedding for her. Working alongside her gave me a deeper appreciation for her skill, kindness, and professionalism. Over the course of the year, I’ve been fortunate to get to know her better, and meeting her husband, Lance, during this session was the cherry on top.

For their session, Henry the Green Truck provided the perfect nostalgic backdrop, blending its vintage charm with festive holiday details. The connection between Iryna and Lance shone beautifully through each frame—playful, loving, and full of genuine warmth. As someone who spends so much time behind the camera, Iryna radiated an effortless confidence in front of it, and Lance matched her energy perfectly.

Photographing a fellow creative always reminds me of how important it is to pause and capture your own story. Life moves fast, and even for those of us who make a living documenting milestones, it’s easy to forget to step into the frame ourselves.

I’m deeply grateful that Iryna and Lance entrusted me to document this moment for them. It’s a reminder of the connections and friendships that make this job so rewarding.

To all the photographers out there—let this be your gentle nudge to step in front of the camera. Whether it’s for a milestone or just a chance to freeze a moment in time, your story deserves to be captured too.

Thank you, Iryna and Lance, for choosing me and for the joy of working with you both. Here’s to more creative collaborations and cherished memories ahead!
