Andréanna Seymore captures slices of life of everyday people and illuminates them in ways that prompt the viewer to think about what is occurring beyond the four corners of the photograph. Often described as documentary in style, Andreanna’s work is actually well choreographed. Through specific direction she is able to create photographic moments that seem natural or in motion.

A seasoned photographer with over twenty years of professional experience, Andréanna has shot for numerous editorial publications and has been invited to participate in group shows throughout the United States. Her professional experience has included numerous publications in American and international publications including BlenderBloomberg BusinessweekDiscoverFortuneLifeMarie ClaireMother JonesNewsweekNew York MagazineThe New York Times MagazineTeen PeopleO: The Oprah Magazine, Rizzoli, U.S. News & World ReportWiredWorking Mother, among others.
