My name is Vanessa. I’m 29 years old, married, mother of three with a fur baby, avid soccer player, and academically trained Photographer.

I started my photography journey with black and white film photography. I learned the importance of proper exposure, and learned the technique's needed to captivate my audience. My High-school photography teacher Mrs. Everett had taught us that photography was a lifelong skill. 10 years later I made the jump to pursing my passion and started SolMena Photography.
