About

Liana Marks

​

Hello! My name is Liana Marks, and I am a passionate photographer based in South Florida and New York City. Currently a second-year student at Columbia University, I’ve been capturing moments and creating visual stories for the past eight years. I specialize in fine art portraiture, professional headshots, and street photography, blending creativity and technical skill to produce images that are both authentic and visually striking.

During my time at Columbia, I’ve been fortunate to work with a range of vibrant campus organizations and clientele—including Sigma Delta Tau, Sigma Nu, Pi Lambda Sigma, Columbia Women in Law and Politics, Athena Pre-Law Society, and the Aventura Mall. Each project has allowed me to explore new perspectives and capture the authentic spirit of these communities.


Photography is more than a hobby for me; it’s a way to express myself, explore new perspectives, and bring my creative visions to life. Whether I’m crafting intimate, artistic portraits, creating polished and professional headshots, or capturing the raw energy of city streets, my work is all about telling compelling stories through my lens.


When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me exploring art galleries, traveling to discover new inspirations, or simply enjoying the beauty of nature. If you're interested in working together or just want to say hello, feel free to reach out—I’d love to hear from you!
