Welcome to Le’Anna Lee Photography! I'm Christina — Your Wichita-Based Senior & Lifestyle Portrait Photographer
Hey there, friend! (Maybe a future or current client) I’m so glad you’re here! I’m Christina — your fun-loving, coffee-obsessed, goofy-but-professional photographer based in Wichita, Kansas. For the past 6 years, I’ve specialized in senior and lifestyle portraits, and I can’t wait to capture moments that feel like you — bold, genuine, and full of personality.
You could read my bio (you should!), but this? This is the heart of who I am — someone who creates a space where clients can be completely themselves. Whether you’re a high school senior ready to mark your final year or someone celebrating your life exactly as it is, I’m here to help you feel confident, seen, and celebrated every step of the way.
Who Is Christina?
Let’s start with this: I believe in making people feel welcome — all people. Le’Anna Lee Photography is an inclusive, affirming space where everyone belongs, regardless of gender identity, sexuality, or background. I will celebrate you because we all deserve to be seen!
I came out at 25, and it was one of the hardest and most freeing experiences of my life. I know what it feels like to lose people for being your authentic self — and I also know what it feels like to find your people and thrive. So here, with me, you get to be exactly who you are. No judgment, no expectations — just joy, expression, and photos that reflect your story.
Wanderlust & Big Apple Dreams
Travel has my heart — there’s just something about exploring new places, meeting new people, and soaking up the energy of a city. But one place has truly captured my soul: New York City. I’ve been four times, and each visit leaves me more in awe than the last. The pace, the people, the style — nowhere else compares to the inspiration I feel when I’m there.
It’s more than a favorite destination… it’s part of a dream. One day, I hope to work with clients in NYC’s fashion scene — capturing bold, editorial-style portraits in the heart of the city that never sleeps. Think rooftop shoots, city streets, subway vibes, and creative energy that never runs out. Whether it’s for a model portfolio, fashion brand, or content creator — that’s the kind of magic I want to be part of.
A Wichita Story with Creative Roots
I’m originally from Brownsburg, Indiana (just outside of Indianapolis!) and was adopted at age 7 by my incredible mom — a single parent and a Methodist minister, which meant we moved a lot. I eventually graduated high school in Terre Haute and g1ave college a try, but the traditional classroom life never quite fit. The need and desire to have a fulfilling life being creative became more important to me than a degree and I am doing just that!
What did fit? Creativity. Connection. Photography. Building my business has been a journey of self-discovery, hard work, and following my passion — and I’ve never looked back.
Now based in Wichita, I love bringing my midwestern warmth and quirky energy into every session. From golden Kansas fields to downtown murals, this city is filled with beautiful backdrops — and even more beautiful stories.
Books, Coffee & Cozy Corners — My Happy Place
When I’m not behind the camera or editing a stunning gallery, you’ll probably find me in my favorite spot at home — my personal library (yes, I turned a whole room into one!). It's cozy, it’s full of character, and it even has a giant 8-foot bean bag made for getting lost in a good book. I’m a total book lover, and collecting first editions of classics? Yep, that’s my jam.
But my other obsession? Coffee. Like, really good coffee.
One of my current favorite spots in Wichita is GROW Coffee and Plant bar— and let me tell you, if you haven’t tried their Strawberry Matcha or Pistachio Latte, you're seriously missing out. It's one of those places that feels like a little escape — the kind of vibe that makes you want to sit down with a journal, a good friend, or maybe even schedule your next photo session. (Yes, I’m 100% down for lifestyle sessions at your favorite coffee shop — how dreamy is that?)
Books, coffee, cozy vibes, and creativity — that’s my version of self-care. And chances are, if we work together, we’ll bond over at least one of those thing
Photography isn’t just what I do — it’s who I am.
The Photography Life
Photography isn’t just what I do — it’s who I am. I’m a full-time business owner and photographer, and that means no two days are ever the same. Some days I’m editing galleries, some days I’m writing (hello, blog!), and other days I’m creating content for my community on Instagram, Facebook and Tik Tok.
Through it all, the goal remains the same: to create a meaningful experience for my clients and to deliver photos that make you feel something. Whether we’re documenting your senior year, a personal milestone, or just who you are right now — I promise it’ll be real, relaxed, and fun.
Ready to Make Some Magic?
If you’ve made it this far, you officially deserve a gold star and maybe a pistachio latte. Whether you’re a high school senior, a creative soul, or just someone who loves a good photo and a cozy vibe — I’m so glad you’re here.
Now let’s make this thing official!
I’d love to work with you to create photos that feel like you — authentic, bold, joyful, and maybe a little goofy (just like me!). From dreamy golden hour senior sessions to lifestyle portraits that tell your story, I’m all in.
