Hi, I’m Ann. 🐸 And yes, that is a frog on my head.
He has been on almost every family session I have shot for years. I jump, I spin, I do whatever it takes to get him to fall off, and kids think it is the funniest thing they have ever seen. Some of the kids I photograph now have grown up knowing the frog and ask for him before we even start shooting.
A few other things you should probably know about me:
I am barefoot every chance I get.
Dragonflies are my thing.
Ice cream is non-negotiable.
I cook for friends & family like it is a sport.
I am a nerf war survivor.
I was not always a photographer. In 2007 I was on a pre-med track studying neurobiology when life made me take a hard turn. Two days into my first photography class I knew I was exactly where I was supposed to be. I may have taken 10 classes in my first semester.
What I love most is helping people see the beauty in themselves that the rest of the world already sees. Families who think they are not photogenic. Seniors who are nervous in front of the camera. Business owners who have been putting it off. That is exactly the person I want to work with.
I am based in Auburn and travel to the Palm Springs area several times a year.
If any of this resonates with you…the. hi, I am your photographer. 👋🏻
