With Lily Chris Photography, Liliana has carved out a niche in brand marketing. She considers herself an “influential brand and portrait photographer.”
“My passion is to help business owners and highly motivated business professionals stand out in their marketing and online presence through compelling, creative, and confident images of themselves, their products, and their businesses,” Liliana explains. “I work a lot with REALTORS® and focus on them as a person, as well as their business.”
Liliana understands the importance of showcasing REALTORS® as individuals rather than simply highlighting the properties they sell. Her process begins with an initial consultation, during which she delves into her clients' brands and personalities, seeking to understand what sets them apart.
“I don’t like taking all my clients to big old million-dollar homes and taking photos. It can be included, but I also like to get pictures of them in their lives — capturing their personalities and having them be the focus of the pictures instead of just the houses they are selling. We are working on getting the community to know, like, and trust them as individuals,” she explains.
Liliana also focuses on authenticity over flashiness.
“It excites me during a photoshoot when people can see themselves and feel confident. I have a hair and makeup artist, Rachel Toops, as an additional service, and I aim to really enhance people’s beauty. But we don’t do anything over the top. We want people to look like themselves. People are beautiful the way they are,” Liliana says confidently. “At the end of the day, I want my clients to look like the best version of themselves.”
Outside of her business, Liliana cherishes her role as a single mom to her five children, Mitchell (14), Gideon (12), Canaan (11), RoseLynne (8), and Hazel (7). If she’s not running her kids to their various events like football, show choir, soccer, gymnastics, and other activities, you’ll find Liliana and her family going for walks with the dog, playing card and board games at home, or attending church, and leading worship.
Whether with her clients or her children, Liliana aims to make people feel loved, appreciated, seen, and confident. Through her photography, she strives to enhance her clients' self-worth and leave a lasting impact on their lives.
