About Us
Our journey began with a simple sketch—my first portrait, drawn during sixth grade. By the time I reached tenth grade, I was creating black-and-white photos using a wooden camera. That moment sparked a realization: photography was not just a hobby—it was my passion.
In our home country, civil war soon reached our doorstep. My family was forced to leave everything behind and immigrate to a second country. During those difficult times, I became the youngest family member and the sole supporter. Despite the odds, I stayed strong and resilient, driven by a vision.
With only basic tools and minimal knowledge,
I founded Ariana Photography Studio (APS). Over the years, our skills, services, and reputation steadily grew. People began to trust our work, and we evolved into a successful team providing a variety of services, including:
Event photography
Fashion and beauty shoots
Media content production
Indoor and outdoor sessions
We are deeply grateful to the friends, family, and supporters who helped us rise and continue moving forward.
After gaining 27 years of experience in our second country, we embarked on a new chapter—immigrating once again, this time to Canada. We found here a welcoming land rich in culture, nature, and opportunity.
Starting over wasn’t easy. I began with labor jobs—loading, unloading, cleaning—and worked six years in a furniture company. I also joined rideshare platforms. Through dedication and hard work, we rebuilt our business. Today, we proudly serve clients once more, meeting their photography needs with modern techniques and professional care.
Our Logo: Three Colors, Two Meanings
The colors represent the multicultural communities we are proud to serve.
They symbolize the primary colors in classic photography—the foundation of all visual creativity.
Now, with years of experience and the latest photography technology at our fingertips, we are here to capture your stories—beautifully and professionally.
Warm regards,
