MEET ALANA
The light, it made her curious.
Hi, I’m Alana!
For the most part of my life, I’ve had a fascination with photography, and documenting the mundane tasks and events of every day life. Armed with my 35mm point and shoot film camera, I spent my younger years photographing everything and anything I could.
My love for photography has only grown, and my passion for photographing people, telling stories and capturing the magic in the every day mundane has to!
I am a down to earth, almond-latte loving, adventure seeking girl, who loves to make people laugh. I’m like that old friend you haven’t seen for years, who can strike up a conversation over anything.
The role I take when documenting anything is that of a relaxed, yet hilariously funny observer. I will document your day or your family exactly how it unfolds. I will be there capturing the pure joy and emotion and I really thrive on the stories that are behind the images.
I always feel so privileged to be asked to document any part of someone's life. From the request to share a couples special day with them, or to document the day to day life of a family or to capture the love that they share with their soul mate. It is so humbling knowing that people enjoy my art as much as I enjoy making it.
So if you connect with my work and would love for me to document your day or family, please get in touch. I would LOVE to hear from you!
