Two things go beyond the wedding day: marriage and memories. Photography is one of the most powerful ways to cherish those timeless moments that encompass the special day. It is a delight and honor to bring visual artistry to the narrative of a wedding.
And oh my how I love stories and the emotion they evoke. I cater my creativity to each individual couple and their natural chemistry. My style is founded on an intentional balance between lifestyle and journalism as well as classic and formal— all with an overarching theme of timeless elegance. It is my aim and success to create images that you will admire and relive for years to come.
I am currently based in Sioux Falls and serve surrounding areas such as Rapid City and the Black Hills area. I regularly travel to my business stomping grounds in Chicagoland as well! I'm always up for travel so don't hesitate to ask wherever you are! I'm only a plane ride away.

Aanna
Owner
When I was seven years old, my parents gifted me with a tape recorder. It became my aim to document life in my home—an ongoing narration. Fast forward a few years and I brought my journalism to a new level when I spent my hard earned money on a camera. For as long as I can remember, I have been observing and responding to the stories and visuals around me—and it has only become more exciting!
A few things you should know about me: I'm obsessed with the outdoors, I take my coffee with half n' half, and I legitimately cry when I see miniature everyday objects.

Where do I begin to speak highly about Aanna.... words cannot describe just how AMAZING and FUN of a person she is, and how STUNNING her talent is for photography. To start, Aanna is extremely kind, personable, and someone you just want to be around. The day after our wedding, my husband and I both looked at each other with sad faces and said "I'm really sad Aanna won't be following us around all day today, I already miss her!" One of my worries during this whole process of engagement and wedding photography was being uncomfortable around a camera and having it show in photos- this worry QUICKLY went away as soon as I met Aanna for the first time at our engagement session. She is so bubbly with a warm personality that always makes you feel comfortable, accepted and welcome. While snapping away, she always knows the right thing to say to make you feel comfortable, and boost your confidence to let you know you are doing great! After our engagement session, I couldn't wait for our wedding day to come to be able to work with Aanna again. She really takes the time prior to the big day to fully understand what you as a bride want out of your wedding photos- which groups of people, what setting, what time of day, etc. I honestly COULD NOT BE HAPPIER with choosing Aanna as our wedding photographer. I cannot RAVE ENOUGH about how both our engagement and wedding photos turned out. They are simply stunning, everything I could've asked for and more. I already have had friends and family comment saying they want my photographer for whenever their wedding day comes. Overall, Aanna felt like family on our wedding day- she fit right in with that big smile of hers, and her sweet personality. She was truly a dream to work with, and her photography is by far the best I've seen. My husband and I are already struggling on which photos are our favorite, because they are all just PERFECTION! Do not hesitate to book her, you will not be disappointed!

I absolutely loved working with Aanna!! She made both our engagement shoot and wedding day so much fun! She has the most bubbly personality, and get's to know her couple, what they like, what they don't like and honestly just about everything you could know about a couple. I recommend her to all my friends getting married, and honestly just about everyone I know!! Hopefully soon we can work with her again for other shoots!! Thank you again so much Aanna!!!

Aanna is an excellent photographer who made our couple photoshoot a wonderful experience.

Aanna was the most amazing photographer for both our engagement and wedding pictures, and we couldn’t have been more pleased! When it came to picture taking, she was wonderful in helping us to feel relaxed and to just have fun with it. She was on top of all communication and any other questions we would reach out with throughout our whole engagement process. On our day, even in a little more stressful times, she was a champ with organizing groups efficiently and effectively to keep things going on track with our timeline. The way she captures moments and makes you feel like the most loved couple in the world is such a gift. Overall we are so thankful to Aanna for the beautiful work that she did for us, and will continue to recommend her work!

Aanna was truly a joy to work with! She shot both our engagment photos and our wedding day and she kept us smiling and laughing the entire time. She kept us on time the day of and helped keep me calm during transition times when things could have gotten hectic. Aanna was great with communication during the entire process and was open and receptive to my ideas and feedback to make sure that we got the photos I was envisioning. The thing that drew me to her initially was her ability to truly capture the emotion of both the couple and the guests and we saw that come through so well in our final pictures. I can't wait to continue to work with Aanna in the future for family photos!

Working with Aanna was an absolute dream for our wedding! She is truly a one woman show and spent 8+ hours with us and never missed a shot. She was incredibly helpful in making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture us beautifully in both candid and curated shots. There was excellent communication that helped our day run smoothly and stress free. We have received some teaser photographs back and are absolutely stunned with her artistic ability!

When Aanna arrived on our wedding day, I felt a huge wave of relief. I was so happy to see a familiar face (she did an amazing job on our engagement photos) on a morning of much to do and meeting some vendors for the first time. Once Aanna was there, I knew she would capture everything and my husband and I could be present and celebrate together in the day as it happened. We would choose her a hundred times over for that feeling of trust and friendship. And ridiculously perfect photos to boot.

Aanna was easily one of the best decisions we’ve made together during the wedding planning process, and trust me you’ll be making a lot! She was able to successfully wrangle our massive family and matched our energy throughout the entire day. In fact, she kept spirits high even when we were feeling overwhelmed with family formals. Aanna was super responsive and helpful anytime we had any questions before the big day. Most importantly, the pictures turned out amazing! They truly captured the spirit of our wedding. Each individual photo is clear and timeless and the album as a whole is even better. We can’t wait to have the opportunity to work with her again one day!

Having Aanna Chase take our engagement photos and wedding photos was a dream! Her balance of professionalism and personal connection is impeccable! Communication leading up to the wedding was so helpful and put our minds at ease as to what was our responsibility and what she takes care of. We really value upfront communication and Aanna brings it! Then! During the event, everything flowed so smoothly that we were able to focus on the day while she found and captured the most important moments of the day along with the more hidden moments that are oh-so- special! Anyone we know who is looking for a photographer, we point them to Aanna!

When planning such a special day, one of the best things my fiancé did was book Aanna to capture the memory forever. I had no idea she was there, yet the images she captured were incredible. After she revealed herself things got even better.
As a couple, we never take pictures together. Aanna gave great direction to get the most flattering images that still felt natural and truly captured us. The worst part was having to decide which pictures we loved the most!
We have, and will continue to recommend Aanna to everyone looking for a photo shoot experience that’s actually enjoyable; even for those that are photo adverse.

Just say YES to Aanna!! We had the absolute best experience with Aanna for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. She is truly an expert and was able to put me at ease every step of the way - it was like having another member of my family helping me through all the ups and downs of the wedding process. She was so knowledgeable, answered every one of my questions and was ultimately so kind and thoughtful to my needs during a very stressful time. Our photos turned out STUNNING and as two people who are self described as not photogenic she made us look really really good getting our best angels. In addition her packages and pricing are really well structured and include a wedding album! I can't say enough about Aanna as a person or as a photographer. If you want professionalism, beautiful photos, and a stress free day Aanna is for you!!

Aanna was simply the best ever. We booked her for engagement pictures and wedding pictures (highly recommend the combo, it really builds a relationship).
Throughout our entire process, Aanna was calm, patient, open minded but also immensely confident and forward when it came to making decisions.
Getting your picture taken for hours on end can sound stressful, but her warmth and charm made it a truly fun experience.
Aanna is able to take a regular photo and make it unlike any other you’ve seen; her combination of great personality and insane talent made all of our pictures so wonderful! Our family and friends can’t stop complimenting them!
Aanna is one of a kind and you can tell she loves being a part of your wedding!

Aanna was absolutely amazing to work with! We started working with her over a year before our wedding date. She was quick to respond and provided many references to help us choose the right package and understand her style of photography before we committed. She was also extremely transparent about the process every step of the way.
Aanna provides a complimentary engagement photoshoot which is pretty rare from the research I did beforehand. This photoshoot allows you to get comfortable with Aanna beforehand. The turnout of our engagement photos met what we envisioned and we used them in so many parts leading up to and at the actual wedding.
On the day of our wedding, Aanna was highly engaged, detail oriented, and did an awesome job directing our entire wedding party and family to get the best shots and angles. I had multiple family members and friends come up to me after the wedding complimenting our photographer. Our highlight photos came back less than a week after our wedding which allowed us and our family/friends to relive the day. The shots were also beyond our expectations.
Thank you SO MUCH Aanna. It has truly been a pleasure working with you and I know we'll be in touch. :)

As the Mother-of-the-Bride, I didn't have a hand in determining a photographer for our daughter's wedding, but I couldn't have chosen a more perfect person to document our daughter's big day than Aanna Chase. My daughter and her now-husband both live in Oregon and none of us had the pleasure of actually meeting Aanna in-person until the day of the wedding! And what a pleasure it was! For months leading up to the wedding, Aanna would check in periodically via email and my day would suddenly brighten when I would see something from her in my inbox – she is just so sweet and joyful. By the time we did actually meet, it felt as though we were long-time friends. Aanna's lovely personality made it an absolute delight to work with her. Not only is she extremely talented, but she is energetic, kind and so much fun to partner with! And I should mention that she is QUICK – a "sneak peek" of over 150 stunning photos arrived in our inboxes a week after the wedding! Aanna captured every touching moment beautifully...and perfectly.

Aanna was the perfect choice to photograph our wedding this summer and we cannot recommend her enough! We are not naturally comfortable being photographed and she put us at ease during our engagement photo session as well as over the course the wedding day. It felt like she was a member of our wedding party, she was constantly supportive and sweet. Aanna was both directive of our group when needed and seemed to disappear into the midst of the fun we were having! She also handled our family dynamics supportively and seamlessly; Aanna is detail oriented and she and her assistant Jillian kindly gathered our friends and family for the many pictures we requested over the course of the day. She also identified a few photo settings on the fly at both our engagement session and wedding reception which was very thoughtful and creative. Thank you Aanna!!

To have Aanna photograph our wedding in April was such a joy and an absolute gift. As daunting as planning a wedding mid-pandemic was, we were always confident that no matter what challenges we might have encountered or changes we would need to weather, Aanna would capture it beautifully - and she delivered above and beyond what we could have hoped for. From our very first video call to our engagement photo session, we knew there was no one else we would want on our team to document our day.
Aanna has such an amazing eye for capturing not just the image, but the emotion behind a moment. There's not a single picture in our gallery that looks staged or posed - every single shot is brimming with the joy, love, and energy we felt all day; each one so special and authentically us.
And even more wonderful than her product is Aanna herself. She provided such a calming and supportive, yet effervescent, enthusiasm all day and won the hearts (and smiles!) of all our guests. Aanna is a true gem and we cannot recommend her enough! She is honestly the best, and we can't wait to continue to work with her for many milestones to come.

Aanna is the absolute BEST photographer we could ever wish for!! Not only is she an exceptional photographer, she is extremely personable and easy to work with. Amidst the stress of wedding planning, Aanna made our time with her extremely enjoyable and STRESS-FREE. We trusted Aanna entirely throughout the process, and found ourselves frequently talking about how lucky we were to find Aanna! Everything from planning (very thorough!) to engagement photos (turned out amazing!) to the day of the wedding went smoothly all thanks to Aanna. We HIGHLY recommend Aanna! Can’t forget to mention: Do not pass on the wedding album! You will regret it if you do! We absolutely love ours!

Aanna was incredible to work with! She did an amazing job at really capturing the feeling of every moment she photographed. When we look back at the photos she took it truly feels like we are there again. She also took great shots of the setup for our wedding. Her shots captured the beauty of our decorations and venue which are fun shots to have. The process of working with her was extremely easy, collaborative, and professional. She was so easy to talk to and she made it very easy for us to say what we really wanted, we didn't feel pressured in any way. Additionally, we didn't feel at all like there was a random stranger at our wedding, she was so fun to have there because she was such a positive and warm presence. She also did an incredible job of blending in, and getting so many personal, special, and genuine shots. So many photos were a complete surprise to us, and it was so special that she captured them. Another aspect we loved about working with her was her eye and intuition. She knew exactly what shots to take, had great suggestions on locations for photographs of us at our venue and on poses we should try when we were doing some of the posed shots. The photos turned out incredible. When my husband and I went to take the photos with just us after the ceremony, we had a great time. Aanna made us laugh, both my husband and I often shy away from photos, but she made it fun to do a photoshoot.
Ultimately, there is absolutely no one we would have rather had taking our wedding photos. Aanna ensured that we didn't have to worry at all about the photography at our wedding, she knew exactly what she was doing, and we were able to just relax and have fun. She took care of everything, communicated with us exceptionally, and gave us incredible shots in the end. Would definitely recommend her for any occasion.

I'm a wedding photographer who hired Aanna Chase Photography because I knew we would be in the best hands. Aanna's attention to detail, knowledge of the flow of the day, and gentle yet firm guidance of family and friends (trust me, this importance cannot be understated) were so appreciated and valued. Her warm presence and brilliant smile and personality are just a bonus! You'll be in incredible hands with Aanna.

We cannot recommend Aanna enough as a photographer for any moment, especially your wedding day! We think the secret to her amazing pictures is her ability to make it fun and comfortable. Her energy is contagious and she makes you excited to take pictures, no matter what time of day. Aanna always provides great advice when it comes to lighting, poses, and style of pictures. We had a COVID wedding, so we choose to get married just us, our officiant, and Aanna. We’re so thankful she was there to document and celebrate our special day. She eased our anxiety of the pandemic by being extremely flexible, patient, understanding, and accommodating.
We loved our photos so much so that we also purchased prints and albums from her. Our pictures hang throughout our home and we love seeing them every day. For our wedding album, she was as hands-off or hands-on as we needed, giving us great ideas for the look of the final product. In the album, she chose the pictures in such a way that tells a beautiful story of our entire wedding day, so that we can relive it all over again.
Every interaction with Aanna has been a true joy – from the first coffee meet up to the final delivery of our wedding albums. We can’t think of a better person to help document our life’s biggest moments – we will be contacting her again! Her work is truly the best and we’re so lucky to have found her.

This review is long overdue! Aanna is exceptionally talented as an artist and photographer. We instantly felt comfortable with her when we first met. She has the ability to just observe and allow us to tell our story in the way we hope it will be captured. We fell in love with our engagement and wedding photos and couldn't stop raving about her to family and friends. We continued to book her for a family session and then a newborn session. She's been with us through big milestones in our life. Thank you, Aanna! :)

My husband and I hired Aanna for our August wedding photography, and we could not be more pleased with the decision! Our photos turned out beautifully, and our experience with Aanna was even better. She had location recommendations, a prompt response time, and plenty of resources/referrals to pass along. All of this was in addition to her charismatic personality and experienced eye that made this process so enjoyable. Aanna made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, gave plenty of direction, and was endless source of joy throughout the whole process! Our personalities were able to shine through in all of the shots without looking staged/cheesy, which was my main fear.
Morning of, we arrived at location only to find out our park location was closed (contrary to what the website stated), but Aanna helped us make the best of another nearby location, and I’m not even sure I miss our original idea. She didn’t miss a beat in planning an alternative, which is an incredible help on a day already involving so many decisions.
Aanna was even able to accommodate our strange schedule - my husband and I had our photos done at 7am downtown Chicago, then Aanna came to our outdoor ceremony location again at 4pm for the rest. She was such a pro at capturing the ceremony and managed to stay completely “invisible.” Frankly, I looked back on the photos and it’s a wonder I never noticed her!
Please don’t hesitate about contacting Aanna Chase Photography about your event, you will not be disappointed! She is a talented photographer, and such a joy to work with. We are so grateful to Aanna for beautifully capturing our wedding day, and can’t wait to look back on these photos for years to come.

This review is embarrassingly overdue.... but I truly cannot praise Aanna Chase Photography enough. Not only did she deliver the most insanely beautiful photos of our wedding but she truly helped make our day so so special. We unfortunately had many hiccups in our wedding day but when I tell you that Aanna made it all seem ok I truly mean it. Her attitude and energy was so positive it truly helped make all the things that went wrong on our day fade away. I am so incredibly thankful we chose her as our photographer because she was so much more than just a photographer to us on our big day. She is so professional but also personable to where you feel like you’ve known her for years from the first time you meet her. Every single person in my family/wedding party could not stop raving about her and once they saw the preview album from our wedding they were even more in awe. I truly cannot say enough positive things about Aanna. Her product, professionalism and demeanor is truly beyond what any bride could even dream of. Aanna you are a dream and I am SO thankful to have had you with us on our big day. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

Aanna was a wonderful photographer for our wedding! She was professional: prompt in response to our queries, adaptive to our needs, and she clearly set forth her services so we’d all be on the same page. She also worked well with our other vendors—the reception venue liaison, day-of coordinator, and DJ—to make sure everything went smoothly. I loved how she handled family and friends; she was polite and courteous, but firm! I believe with her positive attitude and huge energy that she could’ve controlled a herd of cats! My wife and I were so happy with the results too. The photos showcased a perfect mix of documentary style photography with elegantly lit portraits. She captured the love we felt during the ceremony and the joy of our reception. We couldn’t recommend Aanna Chase Photography more highly!

I can't possibly say enough great things about Aanna. She's the type of person that you feel good around which is exactly the type of photographer I was looking for.

She is so genuine and most importantly, the photos she captured from our crazy New Year's Eve wedding day are unbelievable!! She has such a talent and we truly feel so lucky to have crossed paths. 10/10 would recommend her to any bride and groom out there!!

Hands down one of the best decisions we've made for our wedding day! I'd give Aanna 10 stars if I could! She is absolutely wonderful to work with! She's very professional, personable, fun and has an eye for creativity. She's very good at not making us feel comfortable in front of a camera. The weather was very cold on our wedding day, and we were initially bummed about not being able to take too many outdoor pictures, but she managed to capture beautiful photos indoors using backdrops that I didn't even think about. We received so many compliments from family and guests on our wedding day about her. Both engagement and wedding photos came out absolutely perfect, and we can't be thankful enough for her amazing work! I highly, highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to hire a wedding photographer!

Aanna is everything you want in a wedding photographer: organized, take charge, flexible, positive and extremely talented.
Aanna was one of the biggest contributors to the happiness we felt during the months leading up to and on our wedding day. Her expertise provided so much comfort to me as we planned our wedding. Aanna demonstrates that you can truly count on her. Throughout the whole process - from the engagement shoot to the wedding day - she was responsive, calm and efficient. She went out of her way to provide suggestions and advice to us when we were incredibly indecisive. It was so important to us that our family members enjoyed the wedding, including taking the photos. Every single person commented to us how enjoyable Aanna was to work with. The end result - our beautiful photos - was breathtaking. I couldn't believe how relaxed and HAPPY our guests looked. Aanna captured the perfect moments from our day - from the big moments to the private ones and all the details in between.
If you're like me, someone who spent a lot of time researching photographers and reading reviews, look no further - Aanna is the best out there!

Aanna is a joy to work with and an amazing photographer. We interviewed a number of photographers and Aanna was a great fit for our engagement and wedding photos. Her style will get you super natural-looking and gorgeous photos, that are bright and lovely but not the washed out style that's so common among other wedding photographers. We are thrilled with Aanna's photos and got tons of compliments on them. She's also super organized and responsive and even managed to attend our site walkthrough to get a better sense of the venue. Her contract and billing process is totally seamless. Aanna also worked with us to make her services work for our budget, which no other photographer did. She makes beautiful wedding photos within reach.

Of all the vendors we hired for our daughter's wedding, Aanna was THE BEST! Oh. My. Goodness. Five stars is about one hundred stars too few! She is a ray of calm sunshine who walks into the swirl of wedding wildness and brings such joy and delight to the entire process! She is a great communicator and a careful listener who takes the photos you want and is up-front about how much time she needs to do that. Absolutely nothing fazes this woman! Your first-look place falls through? No problem. Aanna finds a better one. It's the hottest day in Chicago in a million years? No problem. Aanna miraculously keeps everyone moving in and out of air conditioning during pre-ceremony pictures so that the entire bridal party stays fresh and cool. You are uncomfortable in front of a camera? Sheesh! Aanna can fix that with her clear, helpful posture cues. Aanna makes you feel like she is privileged to be your wedding photographer and that she is having as much fun as you are. And her second shooter? A dream! Violet is quiet and sweet and helps tend to small details in a reassuring, confident way. To say we LOVE this team is an understatement! I'm telling you, you do not have to think twice about this decision. Let hiring Aanna Chase Photography be the first thing you do and know it will be the BEST thing you will do for your wedding day!

Expect quality and elegance with Aanna as your photographer. My husband and I decided that she was perfect for our wedding after seeing a couple of her pictures online. The way she captures subtle expressions and natural light just makes every photo look so intimate and passionate. We were lucky that she was able to squeeze us in late in the wedding season of 2018. We truly enjoyed working with her. She has a great personality and is super organized. She's also very creative and dynamic while finding the perfect pose and the perfect background for a photo. I often catch myself going through our wedding album a few times a day, which can only mean one thing, the pictures are great!

Aanna is one of the best photographers we have ever worked with. She made the whole process so easy by giving us enough direction to create amazing photographs, while not putting us in those awkward positions that you can tell are staged. On the day of our wedding she found the perfect spots to take our pictures and bring out the beauty of our venue and the day. Her energy kept us engaged and even my husband, who does not like being in pictures enjoyed himself thoroughly. The end result was the best part - we have so many amazing photographs that we will cherish forever. She was able to capture both formal pictures of the wedding party, as well as many impromptu moments from the reception and wedding. She was both professional, and had a great personality that made her easy to work with. We highly recommend Aanna to capture your most memorable moments.

Aanna is truly remarkable. We all agree that her photos of my daughters wedding were stunning beyond our hopes and dreams. She created moments in which to capture the playfulness, romance, seriousness and charm of the bride and groom. She honored and captured the sacredness of the moment, the joy of the celebration, the human connections of family and friends that we so hoped to record for posterity. She also did an artful job photographing the rich beauty of the natural setting and the reception venue. She put people at ease and the result is pictures that convey the warmth of special relationships and the once in a lifetime moment. I cannot recommend her more highly.

And I am so glad I was able to contribute in both efficiency and enjoyment during your wedding day--it was truly a lovely day! And can we just talk about those Montrose Harbor photos?! GORGEOUS.

Aanna is a very professional and energetic photographer! Her attention to detail is impeccable. There are so many photographers out there and we have met with so many of them. It was aanna's photography style, energy, experience and passion that had led us to know that she would be the perfect photographer to capture our special day. Our wedding was a long day and throughout the entire 16+ hours, Aanna kept her professional energy all throughout and provided us guidance through it all. We are really grateful to have found Aanna as our photographer!

rue delight getting to know you and Peter and capturing your incredible day. Thank you for inviting me to document your love story.

It was a blast celebrating you!

Aanna absolutely blew us away in every aspect of being the perfect photographer for our wedding. From the very beginning, Aanna built a relationship with us and with that, trust. She genuinely wants to get to know you and capture your beautiful story! She was very professional, personable, and timely with all communication and interaction. My favorite part about working with her is how fun and easy she makes it! She has a really positive energy that makes you comfortable being in front of the camera and really enjoying your moment. She is a good teacher and provides great guidance and feedback throughout the process as well. When we got our pictures, we were SO happy with them! She captured all the right moments that I didn't even know were happening. Very fair pricing too! She just did a beautiful job and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!
