Even the most confident people may find themselves daunted by the prospect of posing for a professional photographer. Recognizing this, Annie dedicates her approach to a mix of gentle guidance and easy conversation to ensure her clients enjoy their experience while getting comfortable in front of the camera.
By seamlessly capturing both candid moments and beautifully posed portraits, Annie facilitates a way to organically photograph heart-led moments imbued with timelessness, depth, and intimacy.
Annie's philosophy is to create images that not only provide her clients with heirloom portraits, but to serve as joyful documentation of the present stage of their lives: photos that showcase romance and glee while being historical keepsakes that generations of loved ones can appreciate for years to come.
Aside from her photographic approach, you can find Annie helping to button wedding gowns, straightening boutonnieres, grabbing her couples a cocktail, and helping to run the show the day-of. Her servitude goes beyond taking photos in order to keep the day running smoothly.

HOW IT WORKS
01
Once you submit your inquiry under the "Contact" page, you can expect a response with a few days that will include the pricing guide.
02
Phone calls are encouraged once you've reviewed the welcome guide so Annie can answer any further questions you may have.
03
The most exciting step: you will secure your date and put down a deposit. From there, we can then schedule a date for the engagement session.
04
Annie will help you narrow down a few location ideas for your engagement session and can offer pointers regarding outfit selections.
05
Between the engagement session and wedding, Annie will be sure to communicate to see how your planning is coming along! A final questionnaire is sent out a month or two prior to the wedding to gather last minute details. Then...the big day!

do you provide sneak peeks?
Yes, I provide many sneak peeks 24-48 hours after your wedding that you can sure with your family and friends.
When will we get our gallery back?
2-3 weeks for engagement sessions, and 7-8 weeks for weddings.
Do you travel?
Yes! All locations 150 miles outside of downtown Cincinnati will incur a travel fee that may incorporate airfare, gas, and hotel accommodations.
Do you work with a second shooter?
Most packages include a second shooter. I work with second shooters who have ample experience as a skilled primary shooter and run their own photography businesses, too.
where should we get ready?
If your venue is tight and easy to appear cluttered, or dim, I highly recommend seeking a hotel or AirBnB that will allow for more natural light and space.
What do you require to book?
A 40% deposit, and the remainder can be paid 1 month out from the wedding.
can you provide vendor recommendations?
Since I am from Ohio, I am definitely able to provide them for this state. For other states, I can reach out to my network to find who may be suitable for your needs.
Are you lgbtqia+ friendly?
100%! I welcome friends from all backgrounds and orientations. I'd be elated in assisting you on your special day.
do you work with videographers?
I am happy to work alongside the videographer of your choice. It's important to be sure that we are similar in approach which, for me, is to be unobtrusive and let you shine.
