W(O)W: Kennedy Meaux x Lu&J Photography
Kennedy Meaux is a self taught SWLA photographer who loves to travel. Through Lu&J Photography she showcases the timeless memories and creative ideas she’s brought to life.
Empathetic. Loving. Hardworking.
Kennedy thoroughly enjoys seeing people happy regardless of her connection to them, and she feels the pain of others as deeply as she feels their joy. She’s easy going and can most likely be found happy with a smile on her face. She thanks her Dad for teaching her the importance of hard work early in life. He taught her to work for what she wants, do things the right way, and never leave something unfinished.
Purpose. Kennedy admits that finding purpose in this world is not an easy task to accomplish in modern day. She acknowledges the impact that society has on purpose and how it can create a mold of what we think we should look like and be doing (#truth!!).
To find your purpose it is necessary to forget what society thinks and truly dive into what you love. Then, take that purpose and use it to help better the people around you.
As a photographer, she appreciates the opportunities to watch the growth of a family. She’s been able to capture the moments of a family from their engagement to the birth of their first child and everything in between. She is honored to be a part of important milestones in the lives of others. In addition to walking through life with her clients, she’s formed genuine relationships that have grown with her business. If Kennedy’s not capturing life’s precious moments, she’s probably hiking, traveling with her pups and camera or chilling on the couch watching Netflix.
Kennedy welcomes challenges that will help her grow. She’s go with the flow but also head strong, so she likes to evaluate her challenges. After doing this, she’ll make small achievable goals and build on those until she can reach her main goal.
She advises other entrepreneurs to BE GENUINE. From her experience she’s concluded that people like to know who they’re supporting and being authentic will attract those who will support you for you! She proudly acknowledges that who she is at her shoots will be the same way she is in public or other settings.
Hearing people talk about Lu&J is one of her proudest accomplishments because it reminds her of how her hobby turned into a business, which still leaves her in awe. The rapid growth of her business came unexpectedly and watching her hard work pay off is rewarding. Looking ahead, Kennedy’s ultimate goal is to freelance and make Lu&J her full time hustle while incorporating traveling and elopement photography!
