THE CLIENT EXPERIENCE
Step into your powerful story with a tailored photoshoot experience that celebrates everything about you!
PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO, COLUMBUS GA.
THE STUDIO
Calderón Foto is more than a studio. It is an experience.
A collaboration where the art photography becomes rooted in connection, creativity, and intention.
Whether we meet in the studio, on location, or in the comfort of your home, I craft portraits that reflect who you truly are. Raw, honest, and deeply personal.
I don’t just take pictures. I create imagery that moves beyond the expected. I'm influenced by dance, fine art, and textures, my work explores movement, emotion, and form to capture the essence of each individual.
This work is not confined by four walls. It is defined by presence and purpose. Whether you are elevating your brand or transforming your space with personal art, each session is an invitation to reconnect with yourself. It is a chance to see your story reflected through stunning, intentional portraiture.
BEHIND THE LENS
MY JOURNEY WITH PHOTOGRAPHY
Hi, I'm Tania!
Photography has always been a part of me. Maybe it started with my grandfather, whose love for the craft I was lucky to inherit. But it wasn’t until my late twenties that I made the decision to go back to school, earn my degree, and fully embrace photography as my life’s work.
Over the years, I’ve moved away from traditional labels like boudoir or branding photography. Instead, I focus on something deeper, photographing the human form and spirit in a way that is raw, artful, and timeless. Whether my subject is clothed or unclothed, in a studio or on location, every portrait is an exploration of movement, presence, and emotion.
"Every portrait is rooted in the stories lived, the beauty witnessed, and the belief that photography is more than an image. You don’t have to fit into a category. You just have to show up as yourself." -Tania
My approach is minimal and intentional, centering on who you are, not just how you look. At my core, it’s about capturing something real, something personal.
A Portrait Experience That Feels Like You
More than just photographs, I create commissioned artwork for people who want a deeply personal and meaningful reflection of themselves. Whether you need portraits for your brand, a fine art piece for your home, or an intimate session to celebrate yourself, my focus is on creating images that feel honest and true to you. If that speaks to you, let’s create something together.
