About me
My name is Kia Lola, I’m a Memphis based photographer and I’m also a University of Memphis Art major (sophomore) with a concentration on Photography and a minor in Cultural Anthropology.
I shoot both film and digital and I’m constantly looking for a variety of portraiture work with fashion, alternative, pinup, avant-garde, commercial, bands, couples and lots of concepts!! I’m always looking for a new face to photograph whether they are experienced or new to the field, clean cut or edgy, petite or curvy! My current project for myself is to really start applying themes to my shoots and to work with more local MUAs and hairstylists, so feel free to throw any idea my way!
I am not currently available for studio work until further notice.
My prices are flexible and quite reasonable. Also, I am running a discount of $45 shoots from $75. I will negotiate if you ask, but please keep in mind that this is my income!!
If I do happen to accept a TFCD shoot, please take that as a compliment, but keep in mind that this is my only income. In those situations it would be appropriate to assume that I am working for tips.
Starting August 29th, I will only be able to shoot on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday since I start my Sophomore year at University of Memphis.

Okay, we might have to hook up. Because I've had a thought for a shoot, it's simple but grundge. However, I do need some editorial too, I'm a Full-Figured, and I want to have fun. No rush, just wanted to see what you think.

I'm not quite sure what the theme would be. I guess it's the beauty of Hawai'i, perhaps?
Thanks for your comment! :)

I stopped by to further check out the work of a photographer who made a brilliant image of my model friend. What I saw was a portfolio full of vibrantly alive pictures all blazing with emotion.
Fantastic work you have here.

You're welcome! I'm glad. : )
It's easy to spot photographers who understand the basic concepts of photography like composition & exposure. It's amazing how many don't. Some eventually learn it and some never do. You on the other hand, definitely have the eye! So no worries there.... ; )
Tiffany & I are working together next month. I'm looking forward to our shoot!
All the best,
-Kevin
