I’m Tatyana Kano, I go by Tanya and I'm the creative visionary behind Lunu Photography. I love being able to witness the raw emotions and intense love I see between parent and child.

My love affair with timeless photography ignited when I stumbled upon a treasure trove of family photos. Imagine my grandma, a vision of 1970s glam looking like a runway model, and my great-grandma's enchanting studio portrait from the 1940s, a glamorous memento from Austria Germany before they were forced to leave. These photos were like portals to bygone eras, leaving me spellbound.

Now, let's talk style. My photography is a dance between vintage elegance and classic art deco charm. Think timeless poses that exude sophistication and that old-school Hollywood glamor that whispers of the past.

In high school, my mom and I had a delightful little ritual. We'd sip coffee and leaf through fashion magazines, idolizing models and immersing ourselves in their effortless style. I even had a phase where I yearned to be a model. Today, I use those model-worthy vibes to help the families I work with to feel like they just stepped out of the pages of Vogue or GQ.


hello. I'm Tanya!

Welcome

Tanya

I’m a Rock climber, hiker, kayaker and I love to travel!!

On the weekend you can often find me wine tasting. 

I love shopping, or treasure hunting as I call it, at Nordstrom or Neiman Marcus. I can always come away with fun finds. I love the trends, but my skirts tend to lean more classic than trendy. How about you? 

My story

I attended Law school for several years and began my career in a Law office. When my first child was born I decided to be a stay at home mom and left my legal profession; it was just not for me and I was glad to be done with that chapter in my life.  

As a new mom I began to hire professional photographers for our family's milestones. During an Easter session I found myself posing my entire family and directing the shoot. After a while I was hired as a contract photographer for a local Wedding & Events company as a lead photographer and that is when I fell in love with Wedding & Portrait Photography. In 2021, Lunu Photography was formed and I opened a full- time photography business.  

I’M A FIRM BELIEVER THAT IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS, YOU WILL NOT BE LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE!
