Photographer
Hi, I’m David Akana; a photographer based out of Puyallup, Washington. Working with people to capture moments and create imagery that looks professional & practical is what it’s all about. Photographs are visual reminders of our story through life's journey, but it can be challenging to express that story in a significant and special way. Well, I am here to help. Just contact me so we can get started. Thanks so much.

“I cannot say how thankful I am for these very overdue family pictures. We are actually not easy to photograph and our schedule is crazy but David was able to work around both and the outcome was wonderful. I was so pleased with the process, the location, the end results and most importantly the way he managed to capture a tiny time capsule of our happy little family. I would absolutely recommend him if you are thinking of getting photos done.”
About Me
I am a husband, father of three, grandfather, and follower of Christ. I grew up in North Carolina and now live in Washington State. While in college for commercial art and design, I took a photography course and discovered my passion for it. In fact, artistic expression has always been a passion of mine, and using that passion to help others is a true gift. When I am not working, you will find me serving at church with my wife, hanging with family and friends, watching cooking shows and movies, trying new restaurants, and cooking new recipes while listening to jazz.
