HELLO, I'M LEIADA KRÖZJHEN, A CAR, PORTRAIT, AND COMMUNITY EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA.

CAR PHOTOGRAPHY

I enjoy photographing and highlighting the sleek contours, crisp rims, and stunning paint jobs of folks' well-loved vehicles with cinematic photo edits.

I work with car owners, auto detailers, and auto body painters who want to show off their work in the best light possible.

PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY

Walking up to strangers asking for their photo, I usually got one of three responses: "No, thank you.", "Sure!", or "I don't take great pictures...". The first two answers are pretty straightforward, but I'm always particularly excited when folks give the third response.

I specialize in photographing people who don't think they look that great in photos, aiming to help you get comfortable with me and the camera before I ever take that first shot.

EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY

After photographing events such as UNC Charlotte's 2025 Earth Day Festival and the first annual conference by Gemma's Hope in October 2024, I discovered a love for watching people, well...people.

Watching people take the time to enjoy the little things in life with food and festivities, and find their tribe they finally click with, is a privilege that I enjoy capturing.

Ranging from family-friendly festivals to community conferences on more mature topics, I work with event organizers in southwestern North Carolina who'd like to record history as it's being made.

Paydreanne did a photo shoot for Market 138 that exceeded all of our expectations! She captured our products, team, and the general atmosphere of the event and spent the time to really understand our company and our mission. We hope to collaborate with her again in the future! Thanks again for the great work.

From the moment we had an initial phone call to when our final photos were delivered and everything in between, Paydreanne was unbelievably professional, prompt, and courteous. We were extremely happy with the photos taken, the editing, and especially the turnaround time. Gemma's Hope and our team will definitely use Paydreanne in the future!
