Get to know me
Oi, I'm Ana!
I'm a lifestyle photographer born and raised in Brazil, with an eye shaped by years of documenting stories across Italy, now based in Georgia, USA.
My work goes beyond simply capturing smiles. I’m drawn to honest connection, quiet emotion, and the subtle moments that often speak the loudest. Through a natural and intentional approach, I create images that preserve the feeling of a moment just as much as its beauty.
I bring with me a European sensibility touched by cinematic softness, inspired by the early morning light surrounding the Duomo di Milano and the still waters of Lake Como at dusk.
After documenting more than 300 stories across Italy, I’ve developed a trained eye for subtleties — fleeting gestures, quiet expressions, and the in between moments that reveal something real without needing direction.
Each session is designed to feel calm, effortless, and deeply personal. I want you to feel comfortable, present, and fully yourself, because that is where the most meaningful photographs begin.
If you are looking for more than a portrait, but for an experience that preserves what is honest and true, I would be honored to tell your story.

Ana is absolutely amazing to work with! She is so positive and makes you feel so comfortable. I sent her a Pinterest board with inspiration, and she was so receptive. It felt like we were collaborating on a creative project together! She provided the edited photos within 5 days, which is such a wonderful turnaround time considering we're usually very excited to see our vacation photos immediately!
