Hey, I'm Lilyan! The face behind LPV Photography!

I'm 25, a mama of two, a fiancée, and a full-time working woman who turned her love for storytelling into a growing photography business right here in Franklin County, Missouri.

My life is a beautiful mix of organized chaos, endless love, and a whole lot of laughter. I share it all with my hardworking fiancé, Tyler, our two sweet boys, Waylon and Kash, and our three crazy pups — Benelli, Dixie, and Bucklee.

When I'm not behind the camera or working my Monday–Friday, you'll probably find me making memories with my boys, spending time with family and friends, or finding any excuse to be outside. I'm a sucker for a good sunset, backroad drives, traveling somewhere new, star-filled skies, and country music turned up just a little too loud.

Photography has been a part of my life for years, and what started as a passion has grown into something I am incredibly proud of. But for me, it's never been about just taking pretty pictures.

It's about the people, the connections, and the stories worth remembering.

I'm drawn to the moments that aren't perfectly posed. The little hands reaching for yours, the belly laughs, the windblown hair, the quiet forehead kisses, and even the beautiful chaos that comes with real life.

Whether I'm documenting your wedding day, celebrating a new chapter, or capturing your family exactly as you are in this season of life, my goal is always the same — to give you photographs that don't just show you what life looked like, but remind you how it felt.

Because years from now, those little moments won't feel so little anymore.

So come as you are, bring your people, and let's tell your story.

“We had never had family photos done before, and went into it with some nerves! Lilyan made this such a carefree and fun experience, and we left happy and confident! These are photos I will cherish forever, and I’m so happy that she was able to capture our personalities in our shoot. 10/10 would recommend over and over!! So excited for our wedding photos in a year!!!”
