Anh Point Photography NYC + NC graduation photographer helping grads who want to feel elegant and elevated in their milestone moment.

Based in New York City, returning to North Carolina each spring to photograph UNC and Duke grads. I strive to photograph sessions that show people who feel comfortable, confident, and full of joy. The bright, vivid, and timeless style helps to bring out those emotions and feelings.

One of the most common questions I get is: “when is the best month and time of day to take photos?”

The answer depends on a few things, so here’s how I usually think it through with my clients:

First: The Season
What kind of vibe do you like?

🌸 Spring → fresh and blooming (also the most popular)
☀️ Summer → lush greens and longer days
🍂 Fall → colorful leaves and warm tones
❄️ Winter → quieter campuses and clean, minimal backdrops

Each season creates a different feeling in your photos, so it’s worth thinking about what you want your photos to evoke.

—

Second: The Location
Is one of your locations a tourist hotspot or a place that gets crowded?
(think Washington Square Park or Central Park)

🌅 Yes → morning sessions tend to be best. Fewer people around means cleaner backgrounds and more space to photograph.
🌇 No → morning or evening can both work well.

—

Third: The Light
What kind of lighting do you gravitate towards?

☀️ Brighter, crisp light → morning
🌇 Softer, glowy light → evening

Both are beautiful—it just depends on the feeling you want your photos to have.

The good news is you don’t have to figure all of this out on your own. When we plan your session, I help you think through locations, timing, and lighting so everything fits exactly how you envision it.

Thanksgiving 2024. I had planned to post a graduation session with a client who wore a kebaya wisuda—traditional Indonesian clothing.

Right before I shared it, I received an inquiry from Ara.

When we hopped on our consult call, she told me she wanted to wear traditional Indonesian clothing for her graduation photos too.

Sometimes the timing of things feels a little uncanny. Like the universe quietly lining things up.

During our call, we talked about how important it felt for her to incorporate her culture into her grad session. Not just wearing something beautiful, but honoring where she comes from.

Grad photos aren’t just about celebrating the milestone. They’re about everything that helped you get there and shaped you as a person. Meaningful locations. Cultural pieces. The people who supported you along the way.

These photos are as personal as you make them. That’s what makes them matter.

How will you make yours truly you?

A little refresh post to celebrate one year of living in NYC and my first spring here.

I’m Anh, a graduation photographer based in NYC who also travels to North Carolina each spring for UNC and Duke grads.

Something you may not know about me is that my full-time job is as a UX designer. I care deeply about creating thoughtful experiences, and I bring that same mindset into how I work with every grad I photograph.

I shared more about what that looks like when you work with me. Swipe to read more ➡️

Spring books are open:
- NC: March 18–April 13
- NYC: starting April 17

Random facts about me that have nothing to do with being a photographer but probably tell you everything you need to know about my personality:
- I love getting piercings. I may cap out after two more though...there’s only so much ear space left!
- I am a nail girlie, so you can expect monthly nail polls before I book my next appointment (shout out to my NYC nail tech )
- Current workout vibe: and hot yoga. If you ever want to join for either, let me know!
- I love fruit boba. Specifically mango butterfly fresca from and any coconut mango sago drink.

What’s a random fact about you?

You don’t realize it’s the last time until it is.

The last spring here.
The last walk past the Old Well.
The last time this exact version of you exists.

That’s what makes this moment worth documenting.

During your session, you’re simply living in it. And later, your photos become a way to return to who you were here.

I’d love to photograph this version of you. I’ll be in Chapel Hill and Durham March 18–April 13, and NYC dates start April 17. Inquire about availability in the link in bio.

For the grads with big dreams beyond this chapter.

The ones who trusted themselves enough to keep going.

This is where everything begins. You deserve to document this season before stepping into everything that’s next.

If this feels like you, you’re exactly who these sessions are for. Your photos should reflect not just how this moment looked—but what it meant to you.

There’s no one “right” way to celebrate this chapter of your life.

Maybe it’s staying out all night with your friends and watching the sunrise together, huddled under a blanket.

Maybe it’s traveling somewhere that feels meaningful to you and exploring new spots and trying new foods.

Or maybe it’s taking photos on campus or around the city to remember this exact version of yourself.

Whatever you choose, what matters most is that it feels true to you.

If photos are part of how you want to remember this season, I’d love to hear what you’re envisioning.

UNC & Duke: March 18–April 13
NYC: beginning April 17

There’s that collective sigh of relief when you finally change into your scrubs...that “I feel more like myself” moment, and it’s one of my favorite things to witness.

For so many nursing grads, scrubs are more than an outfit. They’re a part of your identity and a reflection of who you’ve become after years of hard work, long shifts, and showing up for others. That’s why I love group sessions like this: they’re a chance to celebrate not just your achievement, but the people who walked this chapter with you.

Whether your session includes solo portraits with your school’s well-renowned architecture like Duke’s gothic architecture, photos with your friends in front of a meaningful campus spot like the Chapel, or celebratory champagne moments on Chapel Drive, group sessions are such a beautiful way to play off each other’s energy and honor your shared journey.

I take on a limited number of group sessions each spring so I can give each one the care and attention it deserves. If you and your friends have been thinking about photos, now is a great time to reach out to start planning.

Waiting to have everything figured out before you reach out to a photographer?

Don’t.

Part of my job is helping you clarify your vision. We’ll talk through locations, vibe, and what you want your photos to communicate—whether that’s for new headshots or your grad photos. We’ll figure it out together.

If this sounds like you, I’d love to connect. You can get started through the contact form in my bio.
