Turning Small Moments into Forever Memories
Get to Know Me...
My name is Aven Sanchez, and I’m a 19-year-old photographer from Eureka, Kansas. I live with my family and my two very precious kitties, who I happily spoil. I graduated high school in December 2024 and currently work as a waitress, while also exploring digital design on the side. Outside of photography, I love spending time with the people I care about and (not-so-secretly) enjoy a good shopping trip. If I had to describe myself in three words, they would be passionate, loving, and spirited.
Get to Know My Business...
 
My photography journey began in high school, where I took photography classes and was part of the yearbook team, eventually becoming the senior editor my final year. I officially started my photography business about 3–4 years ago during my sophomore year by taking photos of a few friends during sporting events. At the time, I didn’t have a name and definitely didn’t see it as a “business” yet — just something I loved doing.
As time went on, I continued photographing friends and slowly stepped into the role of photographer. I created Aven Sanchez Photography (I know, very creative) in September 2024. I expanded beyond sports photography into a variety of other categories. Today, I offer sports photography, portraits (including seniors, babies, solo, couples, and families), and events such as weddings, birthdays and baby showers, — and I’ve even had the opportunity to create wedding videos.
My personal goal is to grow Aven Sanchez Photography into a full-time career while continuing to learn, grow, and push my creativity. Above all, my mission is to provide an affordable, comfortable, and personalized experience for every client. Aven Sanchez Photography is built around making people feel happy and confident while capturing moments that may not last forever, but can be cherished for a lifetime through a single photograph.
