Who We Are
A husband-and-wife photography & creative automation studio built around real life.
SaltySesh® is a creative studio built by Lawrence and Khayla — husband-and-wife team blending lifestyle photography, brand identity, and smart creative automation. What started as a love for capturing real moments evolved into a studio that helps creatives do more of what they love.
We design experiences that feel human, timeless, and effortless — powered by good light, clean workflows, and just the right amount of caffeine. Every project begins with a story. Ours started behind the lens… and grew into building tools that help other people tell theirs.
Why SaltySesh works
Real-life moments, captured with intention.
Calm direction. Human connection. Creative automation that keeps your photography experience organized from first message to final gallery.
Photography that feels human
No stiff poses or forced moments. We create a space where movement, personality, and real emotion can actually show up. It's natural, timeless, and built around who you are — not a shot list from Pinterest.
Clear, calm direction
Enough guidance to help you feel confident, enough freedom that you still look like yourselves. Every session finds that balance — it’s what makes the experience feel effortless and why so many families and founders return year after year.
Quiet automation supporting your experience
Behind the scenes, SeshBot handles reminders, prep, and day- of nudges. Our creative automation stack keeps timelines, questionnaires, and session details organized so you can simply show up and enjoy being photographed.

- Automatic confirmations, reschedule links, and day-of reminders.
- Outfit & vibe guidance tailored to your photography session.
- Simple, human language — creative automation that still feels like a real person.
Creative automation & photography
Questions we hear from families, founders, and creatives.
A quick overview of how SaltySesh combines photography and creative automation, what sessions look like, and how SeshBot fits into the experience.
What do you mean by “creative automation” for photography?
Creative automation is our way of describing the systems that support your session: booking flows, prep questionnaires, reminders, and delivery timelines. Tools like SeshBot® keep everything organized behind the scenes so you get a calm, intentional photography experience without chasing emails or wondering what happens next.
Where do you photograph sessions?
We’re based in Phoenix, AZ and regularly photograph sessions around Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, and the surrounding desert areas. If you have a location that feels like you — your home, a favorite neighborhood, or a landmark — we’ll build the session around that.
Who is SaltySesh a good fit for?
SaltySesh® is a great fit for families who want honest photos, founders and creatives who need branding imagery, and people who appreciate thoughtful systems. If you like the idea of showing up to a photography session that already feels organized and relaxed, we’ll get along.
Can other photographers use SeshBot and your automation?
Yes. SeshBot started as an internal tool for our own photography studio and is now being developed into a creative automation product for other photographers and studios. If you’re interested in using SeshBot or exploring automation for your own photography business, reach out and mention “SeshBot Pro” in your message.
