Hi there!
I'm Carie, the visionary and lead photographer of ALIYA Photography. Since I was younger, I leaned towards the artistic side. It was well into my adulthood that I better understood my need to create. What was once considered a hobby and form of expression in taking photos, became a career pursuit rooted in authenticity and purpose.
ALIYA Photography was birthed in faith with the love for photos and the genuine desire to value others. I'm grateful to God to be in this professional space where we get to come alongside others to capture their stories with both heart and strategy.
Over here, photos are more than just images. They're visual storytelling of key moments in one's journey. Moments that hold meaning, express emotion, and convey a message. So when we say that your story is worth telling, it's because we truly believe that.
Thank you for stopping by to visit and learn a bit more about what we do and our artistry! If you have any questions or want to discuss a session or project you have in mind, please reach out and we will get back to you promptly :)
peace, love & butterflies till next time <3
Meaning of ALIYA
ALIYA is a beautiful cultural name that
we've used to create an acronym with.
Standing for authentically living in your art,
we believe that art can be used as another
word for purpose or calling which in
essence is at the center of one's own story.
