“SEEN.”

Most people don’t walk into a session feeling confident.

They feel unsure, and not quite sure what to do.

That’s completely normal.

You don’t have to know how to pose.

I guide you through the entire experience so you can ease into it and feel comfortable being seen.

This isn’t about shrinking yourself to fit the frame.

It’s about allowing yourself to take up space within it.

Edit. Site secure, issue resolved.

Hi all!

I’m currently in the process of fixing my website’s SSL certificate; something that usually resolves quickly, but this time it’s taking a little longer than expected. (It might even be a sign that it’s time to return to my original hosting platform!)

In the meantime, I am absolutely still taking bookings for portrait sessions, branding shoots, and events.

If you’d like to inquire or book your session, please don’t hesitate to DM me on Instagram that’s always the best and fastest way to reach me. You can also email me directly at [email protected]

Thank you so much for your patience and continued support. I can’t wait to create something beautiful with you soon!

With love,

Rakiya

For AIYANA‘s birthday session, I converted the dining room into a set. During the planning process she mentioned incorporating fruits and other food items into her session. She chose figs, pomegranates.

From there, I made some suggestions and used what I had lying around to create this scene, including a couple of V flats.

The season of harvest and slowing down has arrived. A time to gather close and prepare for what’s ahead. Celebrating Sarah and Elijah’s growing family (with Milo, of course!) is a reminder to cozy up with our loved ones and cherish every moment. 🍂

At Rakiya Lynette Photography, I believe this to my core:
Your experience matters.

Every person who steps in front of my lens deserves to feel seen and celebrated. When you book with me, you’re not just signing up for a photo session—you’re stepping into an experience that honors who you are in that moment.

This spring, I’m offering Mini Portrait Sessions at Congress Park in Saratoga Springs—a beautiful outdoor setting perfect for portraits that feel ethereal and editorial.

These sessions include:
Gentle, guided posing and direction to make you feel confident in front of the camera

  A supportive space where I focus on what makes you feel confident —not what you’re self-conscious about.

  A portrait experience that feels easy and uplifting

I don’t just take your picture—I take care of you.
This is more than just a photo shoot. It’s a celebration of who you are!

Limited spots available.
