Kara Santa Ana Photography

Kara Santa Ana Photography Hi! I'm Kara! A Vancouver, WA based wedding and portrait photographer. Over the past 10 years, I have developed a style that is simple, elegant and timeless.

Wether it's a wedding or portrait, I find this style shines through in all areas of my work.

I’ve photographed and ’s family year after year, and I think this fall session in their backyard might be my favorite! 🍂❤️ The boys are at that perfectly wild and playful age, where standing still for a photo is pretty much impossible, but the laughter, snuggles, leaf piles, and silly faces never stop. Chasing them around while they run, play, and love on their parents and grandparents are the best moments to capture! It’s real, a little messy, and absolutely beautiful. ❤️

I'm so obsessed with this family session! Everyone being together made everything so much more fun and playful, especially those sweet cousin photos. This is a reminder that large family photos don’t happen too often and are so important - we should definitely make them happen more often!! 🙌🏼😍

I was so excited to take family photos for and 😍 Their baby girl was seriously the sweetest, happiest baby ever! I love when I leave a session and my cheeks hurt from smiling so much…this was definitely one of those! And even though we got rained on…everything turned out just perfect! 😍

Their entire family joined for family photos…keep watch for the cutest cousin photos ever!

This gorgeous girl has been all over my screen for the last couple days and I’ve been loving it! 😍 I had to take a break and share a few of my favorites so far! I may have to share another set when I’m finished with the entire session! 🙌🏼

Ahh November is my absolute favorite month! All the colors are vibrant, the leaves are falling, the air is crisp, the days are shorter and cozier, it’s rainy and moody outside and the same time absolutely golden! 🙌🏼 No one can convince me any different!

It’s also time for all the fall family sessions right before the holidays! Super excited to share all the sweet families I’ve worked with this season! 🤗


What a dream to work with and capture some portraits for her. I’m just in awe of her beauty ❤️

All these looks just blew me away! This golden angel was absolutely stunning! And who knew you could look so glamorous being green?!

And I’m not sure “gorgeous” was the look we were going for being covered in black slime but my goodness I thought it was just beautiful 😍

Everyone absolutely killed these looks and I’m so excited for next Halloween to get to play around with some new concepts and ideas!

This shoot was SO fun! All things harvest! 🙌🏼

I’m so grateful for all the amazing people I’ve gotten the opportunity to meet and create art with. This was everything I needed in the middle of busy season, to just slow down and have the freedom to create.

Thank you and for putting this together! It was amazing! 🧡

Chris and Clare’s wedding at the Abernethy Center was an absolute dream! Their ceremony in the garden was seriously so magical, surrounded by flowers, tall trees, and their closest family and friends - ahh it was perfect!

Chris and Clare are such a kind and genuine couple, and it was an honor to be there for them!

Congratulations, Chris and Clare. I can’t wait to share more from your incredible day!

Brayden and Hayley’s June wedding at Skamania Lodge was an absolute dream! From the stunning views of the Gorge to the all the heartfelt moments, every part of the day was filled with so much love!
