ABOUT

Alanna Hale is a photographer and generally food-obsessed individual living in San Francisco with one very handsome man and a surprising number of very large plants. Motivated by the desire to consume allllll the good things–be it good food, good people, good conversation, new places–she views the camera as a means to connect and stay curious. With an unfussy approach and an eagerness to collaborate, Alanna maintains an easy-going, flexible attitude whether in studio or on location. What is the point, really, if you can't have some fun with the hard work along the way? When not photographing, traveling or eating, she can be found at the flea market, laughing too loudly with friends or sidled up to a counter with a whiskey in hand.
