About SaltySesh®
Husband-and-wife team, building a calm way to do photos.
We’re Lawrence and Khayla — a husband-and-wife duo based in the Phoenix area. SaltySesh® started as a way to slow sessions down, make people feel seen, and bring a little bit of intentional tech into the process so everything feels less chaotic.
From family milestones and lifestyle sessions to clean branding work, the goal is always the same: real moments, relaxed direction, and a workflow that feels organized instead of overwhelming.
The story
From “let’s just try this” to a studio with its own bot.
SaltySesh® started as a side project: a camera, a few friends willing to step in front of it, and a lot of experimenting with light, color, and how to make people feel comfortable. Over time, that grew into full lifestyle sessions, family milestones, and branding shoots across the Valley.
Along the way, we realized the parts nobody sees — the planning, reminders, “what do I wear?” texts — matter just as much as the photos. That’s where SeshBot® came in: an AI assistant built in-house to help keep sessions calm, on time, and prepped without a million back-and-forth messages.
Today, SaltySesh® is the overlap of all of that: a small studio that cares about the people in front of the lens and the systems running quietly in the background.
Philosophy
A calm experience, on purpose.
The tech, the prep, the tools — they’re there so you can breathe a little easier. Your job is to show up as you are. Ours is to carry the rest.
Quietly technical
From camera choice and editing to SeshBot® automations, we obsess over the technical side so the experience feels simple on your side.
Seasons, not moments
We think in seasons — new babies, growing families, fresh brands. The work is meant to grow with you, not live in a single frame.
