Lana stands out among wedding photographers in all the best ways. She is direct, transparent, and communicative. She is also reasonable, flexible, and easy to work with. We are so happy with the photos themselves: the quality, the moments Lana captured, and the speed at which she delivered. Her calm, professional energy really helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, too. Thank you Lana for capturing the joy and beauty of our wedding!
Hi! I’m Lana, a mother of a 3-year-old and a wife living in La Pine, Oregon. I have 2 goats, 4 chickens, 4 dogs, and 2 cats! I’ve been a photographer for over 15 years and have traveled the world. I’ve been featured in Oprah Magazine and the Huffington Post, and I've worked with brands such as Harley-Davidson, Indian, Vans, and more.
When you work with me, you’re getting more than photography coverage. I help guide the process with a calm presence, thoughtful support, and an eye for the moments that matter most. From location ideas to natural direction in front of the camera, my goal is to help your elopement feel seamless, intentional, and genuinely enjoyable.

You two have your own history, chemistry, and reason you fit together. The small gestures you both make for each other. The silent commitments you make every day for one another and the reassurance that you’re not alone.
That's what I capture.
