Brand strategist and photographer, former middle school science teacher, iced coffee enthusiast, and proud homebody who’s always down for a pool day. I’m a wife, a mom, and a dog mom to the most mischievous beagle, Bagel (who keeps me on my toes daily). Oh, and if you ever need a book recommendation? I’m your girl. 📚
I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a kid, dreaming up elaborate fashion shoots and trying to convince my friends to model for me. But photography didn’t become my career right away. First, I spent years teaching middle school (and later, high school) science—learning how to plan strategically, make learning fun, and keep a room full of teens engaged (a skill that, surprisingly, comes in handy when helping adults feel comfortable in front of the camera).
I started out in wedding photography, capturing love stories in all their chaotic, beautiful glory. But when I began working with business owners, I saw something different:
✨ They weren’t just looking for pretty photos—they needed images with purpose.
✨ They felt awkward putting themselves out there (I get it, so do I).
✨ They weren’t sure how to plan a session that actually worked for their brand.
And that’s when it all clicked. My background in teaching had prepared me for this in ways I never expected. Lesson planning? Now, it’s brand session strategy. Creating a fun, engaging environment? Yep, that translates perfectly. And at the heart of it all—helping people feel seen, confident, and capable? That’s what I love most.
So whether you're rebranding, launching something new, or finally ready to stop relying on that same headshot from five years ago—I'm here to make the process easy, strategic, and actually fun.
Because showing up in your business should feel exciting, not awkward.

At ALP, inclusivity isn't just a buzzword – it's the cornerstone of everything I do. I believe in creating a space where every individual, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, or background, feels seen, heard, and valued. My inclusive approach to storytelling celebrates the beauty of differences and strives to ensure that everyone feels welcome and represented. I truly believe in fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance for all.
Collaboration is at the heart of the creative process at Angela Lucht Photography. The best results are achieved when we work together, pooling our talents, ideas, and expertise to bring your visions to life. Whether it's brainstorming concepts, coordinating logistics, or fine-tuning the final details, I thrive on the energy and synergy that comes from collaborating with clients, colleagues, and community partners. Together, we're not just creating images – we're crafting stories, building relationships, and creating legacies.
Authenticity is the heart of my approach to wedding and personal branding photography. I understand that every moment tells a story – whether it's the whispered vows exchanged between newlyweds or the subtle nuances that define a brand's identity. That's why I'm committed to capturing the genuine emotions, connections, and narratives that make each wedding and branding session unique. My passion for storytelling goes beyond the surface, delving deep into the heart of each story to create images that are not just visually stunning, but emotionally resonant. In a world saturated with staged perfection, I celebrate the beauty of imperfection, embracing the raw, unfiltered moments that make each story truly unforgettable.
Passion is always at the top of descriptors when asked to describe myself. If I'm not passionate about what I'm doing, it's not worth doing. I'm not just a passionate photographer – I'm a storyteller, strategist, and advocate. I thrive on lifting others and helping them find joy in their lives. I approach every project with enthusiasm, creativity, and a relentless pursuit of excellence, infusing my work with the energy and excitement that comes from doing what I love.
