Tanya has a passion for prettifying the grotesque, and that thrills me to my core. She seems to be able to grab hold of ‘preciousness’, blow it to pieces, and reconstruct it to make something darker, edgier and more beautiful than before.

When I’m shooting with Tanya I feel like I’m doing the shots I always dreamed of and before I know it I’m clambering onto roof tops, crawling through broken glass in a wasteland, or howling at the moon, while she balances up ladders or rolls on the ground, all the time with both hands clamped to her camera and a big smile on her face.

Her images, whether fragile or tender, gory or glamourous, always pulsate with a raw vitality and unique beauty that comes from the lady herself. She took the first photo of me that ever truly made my jaw drop. Since then our work together has lead to me receiving some of the biggest compliments of my life - the most notable of them came from one of my heroes, Dirty Martini, who fell in love with one particular set and called Tanya a ‘great photographer’.

She could probably make me do anything in the name of a great shot and doubtless she’ll test me on that. Simply put - she rocks.

- Leyla Rose, burlesque performer.

Tanya is possibly one of the most influential people I have ever met in my life.

Not only does she inspire, but she gives you the strength to try harder and to never give up, everyday. Tanya seems to find beauty in everything and isn’t afraid to portray it they way she loves not what is the norm. She has inspired me to pick up the camera and to not be afraid of what others may think.

I would highly recommend any models to work with Tanya. She was the first photographer I ever worked with. A shoot with Tanya is something you will never forget. Not only is it fun but you leave glowing!

Tanya is a one in a million and to quote Hunter.s.Thompson…‘one of gods on proto-types’. There is no other person in this world like Tanya.

- Bambi Graves, model.

Her vision of reality portrayed through the lens is how the world should really look. I’m a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge fan of RockstarVanity. Not only is she stunning in front of the camera but she’s a creative genius when she’s behind it. More more more - we demand it!.

- Waken The Dead Photography.

Tanya is a wonderful photographer. She has a unique eye for the unusual, vintage, sexy, macabre, surreal, and does such wonderful portraits. A complete all rounder, with a flare all of her own. Not only that, she is a completely wonderful person.

- Mary McNeil, customer.
