Hello,
I'm Tanja
family Photographer
About Me
Welcome to Photography by Tanja! I’m a mom to three boys, a lover of genuine moments, and a photographer who believes the best photos happen when you’re simply having fun and being yourself.
My love for photography started at home, taking pictures of my boys — constantly. Somewhere along the way, those everyday snapshots turned into a passion for capturing the little moments, big personalities, and memories that make life so special. That passion eventually grew into Photography by Tanja.
As a mom, I know just how quickly kids grow and how quickly seasons of life change. That’s why I feel so lucky to freeze these moments in time for other families. My hope is that when you look back at your photos years from now, you won’t just see a picture — you’ll remember the feeling, the laughter, and who you were in that moment.
So come as you are, have some fun, and let’s make some memories together!
— Tanja

My approach
 
I specialize in family and senior photography, and my goal is to make every session feel relaxed, natural, and fun. I know having your picture taken can sometimes feel awkward, so I’m not about forcing stiff poses or expecting everyone to know exactly what to do. Instead, I want you to laugh, move, interact, and enjoy your time together. I’ll guide you when needed while leaving plenty of room for the moments that happen naturally.
I love the beautiful, planned portraits just as much as the candid moments in between — the unexpected laughs, the silly faces, the little interactions, and the genuine connections. Those are often the images that end up meaning the most.
