about alana
Capturing the essence of love and connection between people is what I strive for in every photo session. It's not just about taking pictures, it's about creating a comfortable and relaxed environment where you can be yourself and feel the love and joy of the moment.
Originally from Brazil, I learned English from scratch when I moved to the US in 2016. As a people person, I love connecting with others, and I believe that's why photography is my true passion.
When I’m not taking photos, I’m usually cuddling with my cat or hanging out with my husband, Juan. We’re always thinking about our next adventure, whether it’s a weekend trip or something longer. I also enjoy relaxing with music, writing in my journal, or getting lost in a good book.
Why my logo features a Duck
As a child, my father used to draw ducks for me. Those drawings became a treasured reminder of the love and connection we shared. When I moved to the US, his note with a duck drawing was the only thing I brought with me, and it became even more precious after he passed away.
That note was a reminder of my father's influence on my life and my passion for capturing the love and connection between families. It led me to pursue my dream of becoming a family photographer, so I could help others capture the memories and moments that matter most.
The duck in my logo is a symbol of love and connection, and the importance of cherishing the special moments we have with our loved ones.
