weddings don’t have to be complicated

After spending a decade photographing hundreds of big, beautiful weddings across the country, I realized what I love most are the quiet, intimate celebrations. The ones with fewer moving parts, where the day unfolds with ease, surrounded by your favorite people, in a way that feels like you.

This season of life has brought me back to simplicity. As a mom of two, and an artist at heart, I want to spend my energy creating meaningful work, not chasing perfection or running myself ragged. That’s why I specialize in intimate weddings: soulful gatherings with 25 guests or fewer, often in homes, backyards, gardens.

Because small doesn’t mean less. It means more room for meaning, more time for connection, more space for the parts of the day you’ll actually want to remember.

My heart is in documenting intimate weddings — the kind with no pressure to perform, no need to follow every tradition, just a steady, joyful presence to capture you and the people who matter most.

This isn’t about the perfect Pinterest wedding. It’s about a celebration that feels like you.

Hi, I’m Anna, and I’m a wedding and portrait photographer based in North Augusta, South Carolina.

For the past ten years, I’ve photographed hundreds of big, beautiful weddings across the country. I’m so grateful for the experience, the couples I’ve met, and the incredible stories I’ve been able to tell. But as life has shifted, especially as a mom to two little ones, I’ve found myself drawn to something different.

Now, I focus on intimate weddings: celebrations that are small in size but big in meaning. The kind of weddings that happen in living rooms, backyards, and gardens, surrounded by only your closest people.

I bring years of experience and an artist’s eye — but I want to work with couples who value simplicity, kindness, and presence over performance. If you believe meaning matters more than perfection, and that a stress-free day is the best kind of day, we’re probably a great fit.

For me, photography is more than pretty pictures. It’s about creating an atmosphere that feels calm and easy, and leaving you with images that look and feel like you. Photos that will still tell the truth of your love decades from now.

I’d love to hear your story and help you create a wedding day that feels just right for this season of your life.
