From Entertainment Industry Insider to Photography Studio Founder: Tanya Eivin's Journey Empowers Clients Through Portraiture

Tanya Eivin Photography, a premier boutique photography studio, highlights the journey of its founder, Tanya Eivin, who leveraged extensive entertainment industry experience to create a successful photography business. What began as a mother navigating the competitive entertainment world in New York with her actor daughter evolved into a bi-coastal studio serving both Austin, Texas, and Long Island, New York. Eivin's years working with agents, casting directors, and headshot photographers provided unique insider perspective on capturing compelling and authentic images.

After relocating to Austin, Eivin founded Tanya Eivin Photography with the initial goal of helping actors gain competitive edge through headshots that truly represented them. "I saw firsthand how crucial a great headshot is in the entertainment industry," says Tanya Eivin. "It's more than just a picture; it's a business card, a first impression, and a key to opening doors. I wanted to use my knowledge to help actors present themselves in the most authentic and captivating way possible." That passion for capturing a person's true essence grew, leading to realization that everyone deserves powerful and beautiful portraits.

The studio's services expanded to include corporate headshots, branding photography, fine art portraits, and boudoir sessions. Eivin's philosophy, "YOUR STORY. YOUR LEGACY," remains central to every photoshoot, with dedication to creating comfortable and empowering experiences that help clients rediscover self-esteem and celebrate unique stories. Among signature offerings are HER STORY™: AGELESS BEAUTY and HEY STRANGER™ portrait experiences. HER STORY™ celebrates women, reflecting not just physical beauty but also resilience, strength, and unique spirit. The HEY STRANGER™ experience facilitates rediscovery, helping clients reconnect with vibrant core and recognize internal spark.
