Let's create magic!
Working with Laynee was such an incredible experience, and I can't even begin to express how much I love my photos! In the beginning, I only had a vague idea of what I wanted to do with these photos-- but Laynee took what little inspiration I gave her and ran with it. In the end, the photos turned out even better than I ever could have imagined. In the actual photoshoots, it was clear that she had a game plan and truly made the most of our time together. She was my #1 hype-woman, which made me super excited to see the final results-- and I wasn't disappointed.
Laynee is incredibly talented, creative, and truly visionary. Not only that, but she's such a genuinely kind, happy, and wonderful person to work with. She took my vision and elevated it to something stunning. I won't hesitate to recommend Laynee in the future, and I sincerely hope I get the chance to work with her again!
Laynee is such a talented visual artist and photographer! Words cannot express not only how happy I was when I received my photos, but how affirming the whole experience was overall. I am not typically in front of a camera, and wanted photos for a self-love photoshoot with my horse, Classy. I was hoping for photos that would highlight a therapy/healing journey I have been on as a reminder to myself about my progress. Laynee made me feel safe and beautiful during the photoshoot, and came up with fun, creative poses in real time. I am in awe of the photos she captured and am so glad that I had the opportunity to work with her! These photos have helped me to see how far I have come. Thank you Laynee 💚✨💫✨💚
I've had the privilege of having creative portraits & personal branding photos captured by Sage Collective! As a plus size, African American woman, it is very important to me to work with photographers who are comfortable with shooting with my body type and editing my skin tone accurately! Laynee hits the mark EVERY time. She ensures my skin isn't washed out and that she captures very flattering angles. This is rare to come by with midwest photogs and I'm very grateful for the effort she puts into ensuring the photos are perfect! She also places a huge emphasis on being inclusive and it was refreshing to see photos from people who look like me!...
I recently collaborated with Sage Collective for our 2024 prom campaign, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. With 7 years of photography experience, Laynee’s expertise is evident in every shot.
Laynee has a remarkable ability to make the session feel natural and laid-back, ensuring a comfortable environment for everyone involved. What sets Laynee apart is the willingness to experiment creatively, adding a touch of uniqueness to the images. The mastery of using light, props, and any location as an advantage truly shines through in the final product.
Laynee has a gift of transforming ordinary moments into extraordinary images. If you're looking for a photographer who not only understands the technical aspects but also brings creativity and passion to the table, Sage Collective is the perfect choice. I highly recommend them for any photography needs, and I'm looking forward to future collaborations. Five stars without a doubt!
It's a breath of fresh air to have a photographer who's very creative and willing to get really weird with the photoshoot concepts. She goes above and beyond to bring the ideas for each shoot to life with her use of props, styling, etc. She's also great with understanding branding, whether it's personal or professional. I love that she pushes boundaries of traditional headshots and encapsulates the brand and the people behind it!
If you love all things colorful, creative, edgy, or weird; Laynee is your dream photographer! I genuinely believe her creativity and the amount of effort she puts into planning
and executing each
session, is
unmatched.
