In this episode, I sat down with Layni Becker—one of the most visually distinct photographers I know. Her work is moody, nostalgic, and wildly cinematic in the best way. We talked about how her love of movies shaped her eye for storytelling, how music drives her creative vision, and why doing free work helped her find her signature style. Laney also shared all the details on Camp Cinematic, the retreat she is co-hosting this fall in Mendocino, CA.

 

Meet Layni:

Layni is a Colorado based photographer, but always traveling. She's been obsessed with taking photos since she was five years old. She started her business in 2019 and has been capturing life through her lens ever since. Inspired by movies, bold colors, and everyday life, Layni’s style is vibrant, emotional, and full of story. She loves Jesus, color, her community, and living life like a movie.
