Hey! My Name is Aliyah Hardesty
I am a photographer based out of Southern Maryland and a full-time student at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, so I bounce around quite often. On top of being a student, I am also a collegiate athlete on Liberty's IHSA Equestrian Team, so I stay busy with riding and competing as well!
My hobbies outside of school include riding, hiking, traveling, line dancing, and hanging out with friends! However, nothing makes me happier than being behind a camera! I started my journey with photography in 2019 and have been growing my business ever since! The art of manipulating light to capture the little things and the best of people is a privilege unlike anything else.
My favorite childhood memories include sitting down with my great-grandparents, grandparents, and even my parents to flip through old photo albums and hear the stories behind each captured memory. Now I aspire to create photographs that give you and your loved ones those same cherished memories so you can show your children, grandchildren, or even great-grandchildren one very special day!
Photography has made my life so enjoyable, and that joy has molded me into the photographer I am today! Below are some photos of important aspects of my life.
