Hi, I’m Yana, a Los Angeles photographer with a background in journalism, television, dance, and visual storytelling.

Before moving to Los Angeles, I worked as a TV reporter in Moscow. After moving to LA, my youngest daughter inspired me to start photography, and since 2018 I have continued to study, practice, and grow as a photographer.

Today, I specialize in brand photography, maternity, family sessions, events, model portfolios, and dance photography. I am also completing my studies in the Photography Department at Santa Monica College.

My work is guided by storytelling, natural emotion, clean composition, and a comfortable client experience. Whether I photograph a family, a beauty brand, a dancer, or a business owner, my goal is to create images that feel polished, meaningful, and true to you.
