GET TO KNOW THE PERSON BEHIND THE CAMERA

meet skylar

your new third wheel

Now, as a wedding photographer in Birmingham, Alabama, serving clients worldwide, I have truly found love in documenting moments you can't quite put into words. Being trusted to capture these memories is a responsibility I don't take lightly, and I approach every wedding with the same passion, creativity, and care, no matter where in the world it takes me.

I'M SKYLAR (LIEN) POWERS.

For as long as I can remember, I have always had a passion for photography; there has always been a camera in my hand as I documented my entire life. After realizing I could take photography up as a profession, I bought my first professional camera at thirteen years old and haven't slowed down since. 

personally speaking,

I've been blessed to take my favorite hobby and turn it into my full-time job, so I love to find new things to do outside of "work." When I am not with my camera, catch me at the local antique malls, traveling the country, hiking with my dog, *slowly* renovating our 1950s home, lifting at the gym, or fishing with my husband.

My husband and I eloped in Grand Teton National Park in 2024, and loved every minute of it. As someone who documents weddings for a living + my husband and I both loathing attention, we made the decision to elope - just us 2 - out west. Once home, we had a reception with all our closest friends + fam, and it was the best party everrr. 

"One of the kindest individuals I have met."

She is one of kindest individuals I have met. Also have never met a photographer so good at helping me how to pose and feel comfortable in front of a camera. I am so happy I did my college grad photos with her. And if I was getting engaged soon I would definitely use her because she has the best ideas and I feel like my boyfriend and I would finally have amazing photos.

"Quite simply, amazing."

Skylar was, quite simply, amazing. She was kind, gracious, and attentive. She adapted to changes as needed immediately. She completely understood my vision for the wedding and gave us beautiful pictures we will treasure for years. I couldn’t be more grateful for how incredibly thoughtful she was.
