Weddings
Everything in my wedding packages has been completely designed to help advocate for the day you truly want.
Your wedding day is not a performance, and your story is much more than just this one day. You deserve to be seen, celebrated, and witnessed in your entirety. It looks like you getting to sit, eat, indulge, adventure, and celebrate - whatever that looks like to you.
To say your wedding day is the best single day of your life does your journey a disservice; rather, a wedding is a celebration of all the days, up and down, that have led you here, together.
Weddings are traditionally pitched as ‘the best day of your life’, but to me, that just creates pressure and unrealistic expectations.
I’m here to help you reframe your day into ‘the best day for yourselves.’
I want a few posed pictures that are intentional, then just trust my photographer to get the heartfelt, in-the-moment pictures that really matter.
I need to get every photo on my photo list with every combo
Being intentional about who you invite so you have the ones you truly love around you, whether that's lots of people or just a handful.
Let’s see how many guests our budget will allow
An intentional timeline that leaves spaces for breathers, quiet moments together, or the fun activities you truly want
Creating a rigid timeline to try and get everything ‘you should have’ in
How do I want my day to feel; calm, adventurous, cosy? Where can I have my wedding that fits that.
What location is going to wow our friends?
What do I feel hot, sexy, or the most comfortable in?
What outfit will look the best and make the best statement?
What feels like me and what do I have the capacity to deal with
What flowers, backdrop, and decorations will be the best
Okay, this sounds like the right direction.. But what if….
"We're awkward! What do I do with my hands?"
"We don't want to be rushed around for photos all day."
"How do we navigate our family when eloping without them?"
That’s what makes working with me different: I’m protecting your vision for your day.
Ultimately, everything comes down to this. If you’re struggling to deal with parents or family members, want to create something but are not sure it can be done, need help sticking to what YOU want for your day or just feeling overwhelmed with vendor issues. This is where I come in. I’m ALL about protecting your peace and vision. Why? Well, to put it frankly, because you deserve it!!
I love my fellow human beings and believe in inclusivity down to my core, so when it comes to anything I love, I will fight tooth and nail for your day.
“I told her we wanted to capture the day in all its authenticity: nothing staged or overdone. Just let the moments be. And she did exactly that.“

More than just a package of hours and ‘x’ number of photos, this is the experience I want to create with you:
Everything in my wedding packages has been completely designed to give you the experience I pride myself on. It means custom planning helping for things like locations and timelines so that your day stays true to your vision. And you can be sure I'll be there to push it back on track if it ever slips of course.

Pricing & Packages
ofc, me! Rooting for you both to do things your way!
I’m a safe space for all and will fight tooth and nail for what you need. I’m here for anything you need, and you have access to all my tips and advice during the whole process.
Timeline assistance
It’s essential to plan your day around what really suits you both. Once you’ve established what you want to include, any quiet moments & fun activities, you walk away with a timeline to help keep the vision you have for your day, and not anyone else's.
film photography
It can be easy to have your photos live on a memory stick somewhere, post them to socials, and that's that. Film photography has such a beautiful, nostalgic quality, and honestly, your celebration deserved having something tangible you can hold and love.
No Travel Fees
You shouldn’t have to limit yourself to a setting within a certain distance if it doesn’t fit your vision for the day. That’s why you can take me anywhere within the US, and I’ll follow along. You should be able to celebrate wherever works for you both!
Images to cherish for a lifetime
I want you to have as many pictures to cherish for as long as you can, and for every moment to be captured. No having to choose between your favorites, it’s all there for you.
Vendor Guidance
Picking your vendors really does help you create a stress-free day. That’s why I love to include a list of my favorite non-performative, inclusive, and safe wedding vendors for friends who are going to protect your visions for your day just as much as me!
A second photographer
Your wedding day is a full celebration, and that means the action doesn’t stop and wait for the camera. To make sure you get the most out of your pictures, I bring an extra photography friend to capture angles I might miss.
Engagement Sessions
I want to make sure I get to know you and that you both feel comfortable. Engagement sessions not only deepen the story but also allow you to get any jitters in front of the camera out of the way, making your wedding day experience incredible.
Minimal waiting
After your wedding day, you are riding an all-time high, and there’s nothing you want more than to relive it and share it with friends. I include a preview within 48 hours so you can ride that high even longer.
From our first zoom call to our wedding day, Anna made sure all of our wants were met.
On our wedding day, I’d never felt more comfortable in front of a camera, and that’s mostly credited to Anna. We love our photos and have them all over our house! 20/10 would recommend Anna for any and all photography needs
She kept everything moving on time & she reassured me along the way that it was all going smoothly.
Anna is who you need! I can’t even express how amazing she is! Everything from before the day and planning and advice to the day of with her professionalism, humor, knowledge and teamwork.
Every wedding day is different and brings its own elements to the table. I work hard *not* to approach your wedding day in a cookie-cutter way.
We will talk in depth about the structure of your day and your timeline, your family dynamics, and how you want to approach any group images, and how you want me to show up during your couples portraits.
There are no wrong answers, and my hope is to walk the line of giving you all the information you need to make an informed decision, without putting you under any pressure to have your wedding in a certain way.

Well, weddings and elopements are frequently a rain or shine kind of event -- but I will absolutely work with you to come up with a rain plan that still accomplishes your vision while keeping everyone safe, dry, and comfortable. For other sessions, I'm happy to work with you to find a rain date that we can both accommodate within our schedules.
