Meet The Founders of Lumiere Collective
We believe that stunning, functional photography shouldn’t be reserved for a select few—it should be accessible to everyone. Founded by two dynamic visionaries, Sydney Everingham and Elly Mae, Lumiere Collective is on a mission to transform how people showcase their brands, businesses and stories.
