Blending Art Direction and Photography
Banana Nana Photography blends art direction and photography to create expressive, intentional images through a fun, collaborative creative process—designed to feel personal, playful, and always a little unexpected.

Photography
Our bread and butter. A small-full-service studio from brief to production to post. We create expressive, thumb-stopping images across portraits, still lifes, and conceptual sets.
BEHIND THE LENS
Meet Jess
Hey! Glad you made it all the way down here. You’re probably wondering who I am and what this whole thing is about. In short, I’m a graphic designer turned visual designer turned art director turned creative director—now fully living my life as a photographer.
I’ve slung big-corp jobs, survived tech start-ups, built thick skin in agency life, and eventually realized what I care about most: making visuals that feel alive with imagination and story—work that’s unapologetically creative.
I believe in imperfection. The human touch only real life can create (and mess up): a smear, a hair out of place, a wrinkle, a belly roll, spilled milk. You know, the human stuff that AI can’t predict. Yes, I’ll answer the brief and perfect the lighting—but the real magic lives in the moments we leave room for curiosity, play, and a shutter that follows wherever the mind wanders. That’s where we come alive to create unique visuals, that’s what Banana Nana is all about. 🍌

No request is too small, or silly. We’d love to collaborate on your next project.
