My 
Story 

IMG_0472.jpg

Photography started as a creative outlet during one of the biggest transitions of my life...becoming a mom. As I slowed down and embraced motherhood, I found myself wanting to preserve the little moments that often pass by too quickly.hospital memories, the first milestones. Documenting me becoming a mom, What began as a hobby soon became a passion as I discovered the power of photography to tell stories, capture genuine emotion, and freeze memories in time. This is what excites me, and I love every moment of it. 

​

I noticed during photoshoots, my brain turned off. I didn't think about anything but the moment in front of me. As someone who typically struggles with being still that was a breath of fresh air. I was hooked! 

 

Over the years, that passion has grown into Destiny Schnell Photography, where I specialize in lifestyle portraits, branding sessions, couples, and special events. I love creating images that feel authentic, natural, and true to the people in front of my camera. Whether I’m documenting a couple’s love story, helping a business owner showcase their brand, or celebrating a milestone moment, my goal is always the same, to create photographs that feel natural,  meaningful and timeless.

 

For me, photography is about more than taking beautiful pictures. It’s about connection, storytelling, and preserving the moments that deserve to be remembered long after the day has passed.
