About
Welcome to Rena Anne Photography. My name is Rena and my middle name is Anne, with an "e" just like Anne of Green Gables. I have loved taking pictures since I first got a camera in middle school, as my sisters can attest to, having modeled for me many a time.
Capturing people's personality in a portrait is what I love most about photography, so my style tends to be up close and personal. I especially love children- they have a magic in their eyes that is difficult but amazing to capture. And for me, half the joy comes in chasing them around in search of the perfect shot.

Annie
Annie was the most vivacious 3-year old. She had me running around chasing her and we had lots of fun. I was impressed at her sense of humor and check out that curly hair.
