Elizabeth Solaka

Elizabeth Solaka is an American photographer based in New York. She creates portraits and photographs weddings on medium format film using a Hasselblad. She photographs artists, authors, and executives seeking portraits with presence and character. Families have also entrusted her to photograph everyone from newborns to the oldest generation and their most cherished milestone events.

Her work draws on the portrait tradition of Irving Penn and the direct human observation of Diane Arbus. Working in natural environments, studios, and on the streets of New York, she creates film portraits for editorial, personal, and commissioned projects.
