We could not recommend Anna more. She photographed our wedding this May. First, we immediately felt so comfortable around her chill but warm energy. We cherished our time with Anna as it felt like my now husband and I just hanging out- that’s h...

My fiancé and I were traveling to the US for vacation, and just 2 months before we were due to fly, we decided to do an engagement shoot in San Francisco. I had randomly Googled for local photographers, and as soon as I came across Anna's portf...
olio, instantly knew I wanted her to do the shoot. Thankfully she was still available!
From the get-go, Anna was incredibly easy to work with. She responded within a day to my initial outreach (and all subsequent emails), and very patiently answered all my questions on her rates and packages, gave multiple suggestions on locations to do the shoot and logistical considerations, which was incredible helpful for a foreigner.
Anna was just as personable in person, which made it very easy to work with her. We thought the process would be awkward, but it was just the opposite. We just followed her guidance and trusted in her talent to get us the perfect frame and lighting!
We were also surprised by how quickly all the photos came back. Within a month, all photos were edited and sent to us. Needless to say, we love the photos as well!

The best part of working with Anna was how easy she made the actual proposal day. I found all the details she provided, including her scouting of potential proposal locations and what I physically needed to do (i.e stay on my knee longer, posit...
ioning myself well for the photos, hiding my bag), to be extremely helpful. Anna's attention to the fine details in both the pre-proposal planning and on the actual day really show how much she cares about capturing the absolute best photos for her clients.
I was also pretty anxious about the photo session afterwards. Both my fiancee and I are pretty shy in front of a camera and so the idea of a photo session afterwards was pretty nerve wracking. However, Anna made the entire session super easy and extremely fun! We really appreciated how she led us to various scenic locations and gave us easy to understand instructions on how we should position ourselves to not look awkward! We were having such a great time that before we knew it, the photo session was over!
We had the best time working with Anna and the photos were absolutely breathtaking! We would 1000% recommend working with Anna, she's the best!!

She is detailed orientated and highly knowledge of wedding logistics, at the same time maintaining a great attitude and flexibility for those unpredictable wedding day mishaps. As camera-shy people, she helped us feel comfortable, providing gentle redirection and encouragement to help us look our best. We were beyond thrilled by our wedding photos and can't wait to share them with everyone!

She was understanding and patient as we weathered this pandemic and offered support as we were trying to reconfigure everything. She has a deep knowledge of wedding logistics, and we valued her input and holistic approach to thinking through our events. Communication was always on point. Day of, she comes prepared with a plan, but she’s also great at noticing the flow around her and helping to adjust when needed. We really can’t imagine working with anyone else, and would recommend her to everyone we know!

I can't say enough good things about Anna's Photography. I've admired her work since she first started out and finally had a chance to hire her for our wedding in 2018. It was a bit larger than some of the weddings she typically shoots but she ...
handled all the different variables and obstacles with grace and efficiency (even acting as wedding planner/coordinator when the need arose.) Anna is very detail-oriented, meticulous, and creative and she clearly takes a lot of pride in her work. Her work itself is beautiful (the photos, the editing, the print, albums, packaging-just everything!) and of the highest quality. She is very communicative and the wait time for our orders was quick and reasonable. You can't go wrong hiring Anna!

If you've seen Anna's portfolio, you don't need anyone to tell you what a talented photographer she is: To echo a sentiment you'll see in every other review here, my wife and I were absolutely delighted by the work she did for our small outdoor...
ceremony.
What you can't see just by looking at our wedding album, however, is how invaluable Anna was to us before she even picked up her camera. Though our ceremony was held in SF, my wife and I live in Germany; planning a wedding from half-way around the world is already a challenge, and it's not like we came in with any experience.
From the moment we got in touch, Anna accommodated our needs, patiently answered our countless questions, and provided invaluable advice - it instantly felt like she was part of the team. On the day of, she struck a perfect balance between blending into the background and giving direction.
The result is a collection of photos that we will cherish forever. I cannot imagine what this process would have been like without Anna's help and expertise, and I cannot recommend her more highly!

My husband and I are very grateful to have Anna as our wedding photographer. Wedding planning can be an enormously stressful event, but working with the right vendors can turn it into a memorable and enjoyable experience. And Anna is definitely...
one of those vendors that just puts us at ease with her talent, her easygoing nature, and her enthusiasm for her work.
Our first opportunity to work with Anna was for our engagement photos. Being a camera-shy couple, we were prepared to have the shoot be an hour of awkwardness. However, Anna is extremely professional and gave us just enough instructions to make the shoot run smoothly, but also made us feel comfortable enough to be ourselves and act naturally. We came away from the shoot with a better understanding of Anna's work style and affirmation that we had chosen an amazing photographer.
The day of our wedding was unexpectedly hectic. However, throughout the whole event, Anna and her team worked around our shifting timeline and handled all the craziness with calmness and a great sense of humor. I should also note that we gave Anna very minimal instructions about the day of our wedding but they somehow seemed to know where to be and all the right moments to capture.
Post wedding, Anna kept in touch and clearly communicated everything we need to know in terms of ordering prints and albums. When our order finally arrived, we were very touched by all the thought that Anna put into the package, which included prints of some of her favorite photos from our wedding day. We also love, LOVE, our wedding album dearly and relive the day every time we flip through the photos.
We highly recommend Anna to any couple looking to hire a wedding photographer. Anna -- we can't wait to work with you again in the future for our anniversary photos!

She also has the flexibility for add-ons which is great! When I met her at the engagement photo shoot, I knew I'd really like her. She's very easy going and pays attention to the details so you don't have to. We had so much fun running around Stow Lake in San Francisco with her I was extremely excited for her work at our wedding. We just got our photos back, and are THRILLED with how they turned out! In both portraits and candids, Anna made us look amazing and that attests to Anna's amazing ability to capture moments that we will be able to cherish forever! She captured a variety of shots so that we would have tons of options to choose from. And if you are like me and need directives when taking photos a lot of times so that I don't have awkward posture or weird looking fingers and Anna was perfect in helping me out there! Looking through all my pictures, I am able to relive the excitement and really feel the love of my wedding day! I can't wait to find some other excuse to take pictures with her! :)

en notice she and the second shooter were there (i.e., they weren't in the way/in everyone's face, and they still got amazing shots). My only nitpick - and let me say up front this isn't Anna's fault because it's plainly written in her contract - I wish I could have all of the raw files without having to pay an exorbitant amount more. I know this is very rare for any kind of professional photography, but as an amateur photographer myself, I would like to have all the images I paid for (edited or unedited). I don't want to profit off of them, I just want them for future enjoyment! :)
