The inception of K. Lyn Photography began twelve years ago when Kasey, working as a dietitian, was honing her photography skills in a night class in order to take better pictures for her nutrition blog. During this time, Kiley, Kasey’s sister, reached out to her talented sibling in need of a family Christmas photo. Kasey was more than happy to help. The sisters decided to make a fun day out of it using New Orleans Christmas scenes as the setting for the pictures. This event and the photos it produced would lead to a turning point in their future. As soon as Kiley sent out the adorable pictures on her Christmas cards, people began to ask her who her photographer was. In no time, a new career was afoot. Kasey explained the progression of this dream job for the two sisters, “Our business started as a side job for both of us and gradually expanded over the last twelve years to both of our full-time careers.” Today, this woman-owned, family business has studios located in Madisonville and Metaire. Kasey and Kiley love capturing children from the newborn phase to any and all important milestones through the years. Obviously, those shoots can be a bit challenging and unpredictable, but as Kasey explains it, the sisters can work their magic. “The clients refer to Kiley as the ‘baby whisperer,’ because she is gifted with the ability to soothe and pose newborns.”
The photographs created by these sisters reflect the love and genuine enthusiasm they have for their subjects and their profession. Kasey and Kiley make every photography session a special experience so that each image is as unique as the subject it reflects. Their timeless and unique style create memory treasures that will look beautiful in any home for decades.
CauseHOGS FOR A
Joseph and Megan Authement hosted their second annual Party for a Cause on Saturday, August 13, 2022. It was a lovely and well-attended event with one hundred percent of the profits benefiting Hogs for the Cause. This important, local non-profit contributes to pediatric brain cancer patients and their families by giving them help and support. Gavin Jobe, owner of Meribo Restaurant generously provided the food, as well as his staff for support. The Northshore Hogs for the Cause team, Hogwatch, was also in attendance to lend a hand wherever their help was needed. A live and silent auction was held in the early evening, followed by music around the pool as the guests mingled throughout the night. Becker Hall, founder of Hogs along with Zaindy Raniold, Hogs CFO spoke to guests on the impact each and every member of the community has by attending events such as this one. The Authement family-sponsored event had a wonderful turnout with three hundred plus guests in attendance, triple the size of the previous year. The result of the evening was a great success, as they raised nearly one hundred thousand dollars for the Cause. Be on the lookout for year three to be a smashing success, as well.
