From documentary family portraits to full-scale brand projects, Ana’s work is all about connection, aesthetic, and capturing people in their best light (not sorry, she loves a pun).

Ana lives in Sag Harbor with her husband and three children and accepts commissions all over the world. When not on assignment, she can be found in her cut-flower garden, watching comedians on tik tok, chatting about how AI is actually here to save us creatives, or posted up at the beach with an epic bag of snacks.
