I am tasha vanasse (vuh - noss).

I have been taking real photos of real people for thirteen years.

I live in portland, oregon with my brilliant daughter and our rescue border collie, Jude.

I know that love isn’t easy, but it’s 100% worth it.

I’m a vegetarian, an environmentalist, a sensitive.

I believe in adventure, in lasting friendships. I believe in helping people. I believe that every second of life is worth living to its fullest. I believe tea makes things infinitely better. I believe in living a thoroughly examined life.
I believe in family, and above all
I believe in love.

Sixty years from now, if you sit down with your family and look back over your photos, and they make you remember that this love, this life together is absolutely worth every moment (even the not-so-shiny ones), then my job has been well done.
