Hi there! Thank you for your interest in my work and welcome! 

I'm Iya (pronounced as ee-yuh) and I'm currently based in sunny Virginia Beach, where I share my home with my hubby Mike and our adorable, slightly indulged Boston Terrier, Jackjack!

As your photographer, my goal has always been to deliver beautiful and meaningful images of your children and family. Images that capture your genuine stories and personalities. 

Feel free to explore my site and if my work speaks to you, I would love for you to contact me so we can discuss your own custom portrait experience!

Our family had a very good experience getting pictures taken by Iya. From start to finish she was very professional. She was very patient with the little ones and made them feel comfortable during the shoot. We got our photos super quick and absolutely love how they come out. 
Looking forward to our next session.

We have the most amazing images of my little one that we will treasure from Iya. She is an amazing artist and is very detail oriented. The sessions we've had have all been such unique experiences and she is great to work with from planning a session to getting back beautiful prints! We hope to work with her again!

We're incredibly fortunate to have crossed paths with Iya and utilize her services from Okinawa to the East Coast of the USA. Over the last 2.5 years, she's worked with my crew (young daughter and 3 dogs) to create some FABULOUS results. 

Highly recommend her for her precision, creative visions and the final products are absolutely breathtaking.

Our experience with Iya was amazing. The location was beautiful and the pictures are like something straight out of a magazine! She has the ability to capture children in their natural element just being themselves and turn it into a work of art. I would absolutely work with her again!

I highly recommend, you will not be disappointed. Her pictures are more than pictures they are artwork. Thank you Iya for sharing your talent with my family. Looking forward to our next session.
