Lana Howe
Profile
I am first and foremost, a mother of a two year old. I was raised in Kazakhstan, where I received my masters in Languages. In 1998 I immigrated to the United States, received my MBA and a first job as a Financial Advisor. My passion for photography started when I was a child. My aunt gave me her own and only camera as a gift, taught me how to take black and white pictures and develop them. I was in love with photography ever since. I have to say, I am still learning. And I feel it is a never ending process…
Now I get my inspiration from my son. I love to witness the excitement as a mom sees her child through new eyes, one that testifies to her that her child is a gift from God.
