Bio: 
Zakeya is an Atlanta-based Newborn, Maternity, Milestone, and Family photographer. Her passion lies with newborns but loves seeing families come back time and time again to document the growth of their baby, updating family photos, or even capturing the expectant mother again.

She also loves providing her clients with timeless heirloom products that her clients can cherish forever. Seeing her clients react to viewing their images for the first time or seeing their images printed for the first time is a heartwarming experience.

Zakeya previously worked in the corporate world while balancing her growing business. With the help of Instagram, her business has blossomed into her full-time job. She recently received her Masters in Marketing and certificate in Customer and Brand Management.

She has been growing her business for almost three years and is proud of her achievements in this short period of time, such as speaking on podcasts and being a teacher in the 2021 Newborn Retreat by the Milky Way. She looks forward to what her business grows into next.
