hey, I’m Janay
Born and raised in Mobile, Alabama, I’ve been calling Atlanta home since I was 13. Photography has always been a love of mine, but it wasn’t until 2020—when the world slowed down—that I truly leaned in. Somewhere between all the chaos, I found clarity, and I knew photography was more than just a hobby; it was my calling.
Now, fun fact—I hold dual degrees in Web Design and Media Design (Branding) from Full Sail University (yep, I’m a creative through and through), but photography? That’s where my heart sings. It’s my ultimate passion—my Selena to Justin, my Kenan to Kel!
Looking back on the past few years, I’m just overwhelmed with gratitude. I’ve had the chance to travel, meet incredible people, and freeze unforgettable moments in time. Every experience has felt divinely orchestrated, a reminder that I’m right where I’m supposed to be.
When it comes to my photography, I live for capturing real, raw, and soulful moments. Candid shots? They have my heart. There’s something so special about the unposed, the in-between, the genuine laughter, and the quiet confidence that shines through when people feel seen.
I’ve been lucky to work with some insanely talented artists like Jessica Jayh, Remey Williams, Joy Conaway, and Erika Janaé. And I’m constantly inspired by photographers like Marina Williams, Cassidy Lynn, and Jordan Viision, who push the boundaries of creativity.
If I had to sum up my photography style in three words? Fun. Organic. Soulful. Every click of my camera is about telling a story—your story—in the most authentic way possible.
Can’t wait to create cool stuff with you!
Cheers, Nay Nay

In 2023, this accomplishment stands out as the pinnacle for me, and I owe immense gratitude to Fifth Creative and Slate 32 events for entrusting me with my first major project alongside prominent figures: Fantasia and Ricco Barrino. It was a pivotal opportunity where I felt compelled to demonstrate my ability to capture remarkable images, regardless of the circumstances—and I delivered!
You know that rush when adrenaline takes over, and the work is almost a blur, yet you can close your eyes and know it was executed flawlessly? That's exactly how I felt—overwhelmingly proud and thankful! I eagerly anticipate more such experiences in the coming years and look forward to connecting with even more inspiring creatives in this field.
