About Me
Andréa Leigh Black
"She is a figure of strength, but her strength is rooted in her gentleness"
~ Imara Njeri
I am a mother, a daughter and a wife ... my passion is capturing the treasured moments of LIFE!
My very first job at the age of 16 was as a photo assistant for a wedding. I have loved photography ever since. In 2018, I started my dog centered business which has allowed me the time to study the composition of photos while taking pictures of adorable furry friends. I absolutely love getting to capture the essence and personality of these best friends.
One of my clients knew of my passion and hired me for a family wedding reception. The photos were beautiful, my heart was full and Lioness Photography was born!
"It only takes one person to believe in you, to open the door to life"
My daughter has called me 'Lioness' because of my mane of hair and a balance of compassion and ferocity. I aim to protect those around me. I strive to convey the strength and the vulnerability of those I photograph and interact with.
I adore the fun-loving moments of subjects when they release the anxiety and allow their truth to show through. Capturing those precious moments we celebrate with loved ones.
It is my desire to capture the light and the joy within every creature.
