Hi, I'm Lilia
I am a destination wedding photographer and videographer fueled by the world around me. My friends call me Lil. And since you’re here, we just became one step closer to becoming friends – so you can call me Lil too.
I now call Charleston, SC my home, but if you know me, I’ve always had trouble staying in one place. So I like to call the road my home. Traveling is what keeps me alive. Want to elope in Italy? Let me come to you.
I want you to remember exactly how it felt…
…To be able to re-live every emotion
Joy, anticipation, love…
…And everything in-between
your story
It’s always been you,
For the past couple years, I’ve always tried to figure out “my why,” my purpose. Why do I love documenting people? I couldn’t articulate it. So I thought a little harder. And in an effort of trying to find it, I lost it and I felt as if I was just going through the motions—clicking a shutter and creating a picture, not a narrative.
Why do I do this? Because I’m good at it? Because it’s my calling? I wanted to dig deeper. I searched and searched until finally at 2 o’clock in the morning it hit me. You are “my why.” The connection I am able to make with you through a photographic medium is the reason I do what I do. It’s always been you. It’s the human connection.
It will always be you,
When I learn about what inspires you, it inspires me. It pushes me. With out you, I would have no purpose as an artist. I document you in order to make you feel — to help you remember. When I find out your story, I discover mine. We bring out the deepest of emotions in one another. You are why I’m here — it’s always been you.
