FAQ


A few of the most asked questions about Tana.

What is your style?

I love capturing life and laughter. The real stuff. Not the 'let's all lean against this wall and look perfect' stuff. I prefer the natural, the real, the authentic, and if you do too, you're in the right place!

I want my sessions to be fun and effortless, while capturing the true essence of who you are. Each session is tailored with your personalities in mind, to create images that are sure to capture the realness of who you are.

I want you to look back at these pictures 5, 10, or even 25 years from now, and think, that was exactly how we were. Not perfect, just authentically, us.




What is your favorite type of session?

I wouldn't say it's a type of session, but what is within the session that's my favorite. I love capturing the moments before and after a pose. I love capturing love and laughter. People in their element. I love to document, not just pose.


You're a full-service photographer, what does that mean?

In a nut shell: each session is a personalized and customized experience. I'm with you every step of the way. From the consultation, to helping you select a wardrobe, to selecting a location that suits your personality and taste, to selecting photos for your home. I want you to have quality artwork that you are proud to hang in your home. 



How did you get into photography?

This whole love for photography started many years ago, and actually fell into my lap. My parents both have a knack for photography, so I was "exposed" to it my entire life. In 2013, I launched Tana Mathews Photography. I have had then honor and privilege of photographing hundreds of families, watching their kids grow up, get married, and have children of their own! Photography has taken me to several countries and across the states (even Hawaii), over the last 10+ years!
