Capturing Dana Marks in my studio was an experience I won’t forget. Dana, a powerhouse of talent as an actress, teacher, director, singer, musician, and Pilates instructor, radiates ease and presence. Her embodiment of grace and strength shines through in every frame.

These images reflect the peace, confidence, and light she carries into every space she enters.
