Hi, I’m Adrian Ling — the eye behind the lens at Ling Iconic.

First and for most, I’m Husband a Father and a Son. Family is important and my wife and daughter are the heart beat and inspiration.

I never set out to be a photographer. I just knew, even from my student days fifteen years ago, that I saw people a little differently. Not just in how they looked, but in how they carried themselves. In their snippets of life , I saw — confidence, vulnerability, connection — that come through in a single, honest frame.

That intuition became my calling.

Today, I photograph headshots for professionals who want to show up with purpose and authenticity. My clients include real estate agents, entrepreneurs and creatives — every session is about more than just getting “a nice photo.” It’s about helping you feel confident, seen, and ready to own your space.


But that’s only part of my story.

Beyond the studio, I create imagery of fine art child portraiture and family photography that speaks with heart. These sessions are deeply personal to me. I photograph children and families not to traditionally pose them, but to preserve real moments who they really are — their connection, play and love.

This balance between a professional polish and photographs that speaks with heart is what defines my style. It's what makes my work feel cohesive across genres, and what I believe keeps people coming back.

Why I Do what I Do

Maybe it’s because I grew up feeling like the quiet one in the room — the one who watched, listened, and saw the world in detail. Photography gave me a voice and, more importantly, a way to reflect back to people what’s crazy and beautiful about them.

So whether you're standing in front of my camera for a headshot that helps you book your next client, or for a portrait that freezes a moment that we never get to go back to — know this:


I see you. And I’ll help others see you, too.

Let’s create something crazy beautiful, something that reflects your family, and you, at your best — in every sense of the word.
