Lena Di is an NYC portrait photographer creating commissioned portraits and headshots for individuals, couples, actors, creatives and professionals. Her portrait photography draws on the cinematic light and quiet, graphic compositions of her fine art work, in color and in classic black and white, so your portraits feel personal and timeless rather than posed.

Sessions take place in the studio at 25 Broad St, New York, NY 10004, in the Financial District, or on location around New York City, from a Manhattan street corner to your own home. Every session is styled, directed and edited by Lena, and you can keep it simple with one look in 30 minutes or plan a longer session with unlimited looks and a full set of retouched images.
