Meet the
photographer
WELCOME!
My story as a photographer starts in the early 2000s when I was a little girl. I’ve always been a very sentimental and nostalgic person, and after bugging my parents incessantly to remind me what my friends looked like or what specific places looked like while at the dinner table, it became clear that I have something called aphantasia. This basically means I can’t visualize memories as pictures in my mind the way others can.
For me, photographs are more than just images… they’re windows into the emotions and stories I hold dear. I started carrying around a camera with me from the time I was young enough to count my age on my fingers, scared of not being able to look back at the faces and places I loved most. Over time, that instinct turned into something much deeper: a way of connecting with people, preserving feeling, and honoring the passing moments that make life beautiful. It’s this connection to the emotional essence of a moment that helps me create photos that resonate deeply, not just with the eye, but with the heart.
About Lana
My unique perspective has shaped the way I see and capture the world. When I’m behind the camera, I’m most drawn to the feeling of a moment: the light that hits your skin, the laughter that fills the room, the quiet warmth that comes from being surrounded by people who love you. I want your photos to be something you can feel years from now, even when the memories start to blur around the edges.
From the very beginning, I make sure your experience feels intentional and personal. I have lots of pre-shoot communication with every client - even for single sessions - to talk through your vision for the day, your comfort level with being photographed, and what kind of energy you want captured and preserved. I always arrive early to scout locations, study the light, and make sure everything feels seamless for my clients. My goal is for you to show up feeling completely at ease.
Every detail is already taken care of.
Photography is a celebration of life as it is - and I am so humbled and grateful to be trusted to document your story.

where imagery feels alive
To Be Seen
I’m often told that my photographs feel alive, and it’s the greatest compliment. What people really see is this: two humans feeling something so deeply that, for a moment, nothing else exists.
To Be Known
Your hand intertwined with your partner during your first dance. Your dad wiping a tear from his eye during your vows. The way your friends collapse into laughter. These are the moments that move me.
To Be Loved
Your wedding photos are more than beautiful images. They are a record of what it felt like to be there. To love this person. To belong to these people. To be this version of yourself, for this brief and unrepeatable moment in time.
a note to
PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS
My goal is to create a safe space for my clients. You are welcomed and respected by me, regardless of your race, gender identity, sexual orientation, immigration status, or disabilities. If you are bothered by that statement, I am probably not the photographer for you.

joy-filled imagery
Let's document that feeling- the one felt so deeply that for a moment, nothing else exists besides you caught up in love.
