Zaana, the artist behind Ann Drake Photography, is a newcomer, but has quickly made her mark on the Chicago photography scene. With a focus in glamour, fetish and boudoir photography, she enjoys finding ways to bring out the beauty and sexiness within each model that steps in front of her camera. Zaana has been both active and a leader in the BDSM community for 2 years, creating and running the Lakeview Munch and working with many models and kinksters to produce erotic, gorgeous art. Having just started working within the Chicago sex toy industry, Zaana hopes to continue learning more to further sex-positivity and body-positivity, and to continue understanding exactly what it is that makes people feel sexy and beautiful; in front of her lens and elsewhere. Her home base is in the city of Chicago.
