I'm Imani Payne, a photographer and mother based in Austin, Texas, who believes in capturing the authentic moments that make life beautiful. My journey with photography began at age 10 and has been a constant companion through every chapter of my life—a tool for staying present and finding beauty in both the ordinary and extraordinary.

My sessions are guided by natural light, deep listening, and a belief in the beauty of the in-between. The result: luminous, lived-in images that feel timeless and deeply personal.
