Hi im Tana

A portrait photographer / commercial photographer and canvas designer.

Photography is a passion for me as well as a job

My camera is how i express my Art and my photos are my paintings

I like old fashioned photography with a digital camera -yes its possible :-D

I like to use colour filters as well as a few tricks i have picked up with practice over time.

All my photographs are as untouched as possible

The colours i get are from using different filters and settings in the camera.

The only editing i do is mainly converting some photographs to black and white , apart from my pop art canvas and t shirt designs . with these i have played with the colour and white balance settings with iphoto.

My inspiration to take my love of photography to a professional level was when i became a mother myself

Its truly wonderful to capture the Innocence on a child's face and and have it forever in a portrait

I do local portrait work and can be contacted through flickr if you are interested in booking a portrait session or through email tana.cloud9studio@gmail.com
