After over 350 weddings (and portrait sessions far beyond that), Tanya (she/they) brings a fresh passion to each new session and event. She understands that many people feel uncomfortable having their photo taken so she prides herself on working quickly and making the session as fun as possible. Even clients who hate having their photo taken say how much fun they had!

Tanya works with a natural style that is timeless, colorful, and happy. She loves when people include their pets, and she's not afraid to photograph zombies.

Tanya officially became a professional photographer in 2006 after graduating from the University of Lethbridge with a BFA (Multidisciplinary) with Great Distinction. She has since gone on to be published in Wedding Bells Magazine, Equally Wed, Rock N' Roll Bride, Bridge Magazine, Canadian Underwriter, and Air Canada's enRoute Magazine. Tanya has had the honour of winning the Sun Times Best of the Best multiple years as well as placing every year she's been in business. She has received the Consumer Choice Award, Quality Business Awards, and Community Votes best photographer in the Lethbridge region, and in 2019 she was awarded a Top 40 Under 40 by the Lethbridge Chamber of Commerce.

Photography by Tanya Plonka is based out of Lethbridge, Alberta but travels to any Canadian destination.
