ABOUT
Vanessa Lenz is an award-winning photographer and artist, who has been producing captivating and diverse images for over 20 years. Vanessa began her career as an on-set photographer for Martha Stewart’s television show as well as staff photographer for MSL magazine. From there she started Vanessa Lenz Photography/ VLP and has since taken on a wide range of clients including in the fashion sector (Sydney Garber, Kaval Inc., YOOX, Vera Neumann Vintage), celebrities (Sheryl Crow, Iris Apfel, Common, Rihanna), corporate/financial businesses (First Republic Bank, Echoing Green, AOL), publications and small businesses. No matter the size of the project, she always strives to find inventive and fun ways to bring images to life.
