They say "Do what you Love and you will never work a day in your life!" .... and I do just that! My name is Tatiana and as your main point of contact with Love Photo & Art, you can inquire and chat with me via email, text or phone about any portrait session, event photography, personalized artwork or portrait restoration. Meeting with you or chatting with you beforehand will give me an idea of what you are looking for.
It is hard to say what part of my job I love the most. As the main studio portrait photographer, image stylist, digital artist, and post-production specialist I oversee most projects from their conception through production and delivery, adding any editing, retouching or adding artistic touch to portraits and albums. I love it when a client gives me the artistic freedom or suggests an idea to create something truly unique! Photography and creating various art started as my hobbies many years ago, but eventually, back in 1999 they turned into business. You can see, and purchase some of my works of art right from this web site, choose "ART by Tatiana" tab.
My husband Derek started his career in photography at his father's studio at the very young age of 17. He established our Westlake Love Photography studio with custom framing in 1996. A few years back he moved on to pursue other interests and a different career path. Occasionally he will step in to help out by a special request. One of our freelance photographers with over 10 years of experience can also be called on to help when needed.
Everyone here at Love Photo is well trained, experienced and passionate about their work! We are capable of capturing candid, photo-journalistic, formal and traditional images during any session or event with professional lighting and posing. We offer all that to you with personalized service and high quality products.
