Welcome to the black and white beach photography world through the lens of me, photographer, Jana Newman. My roots are deeply embedded in the sun-kissed shores of Southern California, where I grew up. From my early days playing in the sand, I have always loved the beach and capturing my days there. I would come home and draw in pencil, a depiction of my day - not easy for most to decipher, but I knew what it was! I also have a passion for capturing moments in time with my camera and the ocean has been a continual muse for me. I am drawn to black and white because I feel like there is a timeless look and a calm feeling specific to the beach. Each photo is an exploration of monochromatic light and shadows where I love to use the power of photography to connect people with places and emotions. I am so grateful you have stopped by to check out my gallery and potentially purchase a print for your home or workspace. If there is a print you'd like signed, a different size or you have seen a photo in Instagram that is not for sale here; please reach out either through the contact page, DM me on Instagram and/or email me personally at jananewmanphoto@gmail.com. If you'd like to just say hello, please do - I really like all inquiries.
