Own a small business? Need consistent lifestyle photos? I'd love to chat!
Take me along on your adventure!
Photo's don't have to be posed and boring.
Do you and your lover enjoy trips to the mountains? Or maybe your family is one who loves the beach. Then let's capture those moments to cherish for a lifetime! Photo's don't have to be limited to what's closest or an open field (unless that's your vibe!) Let's go on an adventure and capture your family, you as a couple or just you in a place you feel most yourself!
Don't take my word for it, here are what others are saying!
Anna is incredible!!
When I first saw Anna's work I was obsessed and knew I wanted to have her apart of our day. From the initial contact Anna was just the sweetest. So quick to respond and friendly. Planning a destination wedding plus postponing due to Covid made an already stressful situation even more stressful but Anna was there every single step of the way. We met up for engagement photos and Anna immediately felt like a friend. She has a way of making you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and really hypes up your love without being weird. During the planning process Anna checked in often and was always willing to help with suggestion on vendors. When it finally came to our big day Anna truly felt like one of our best friends, so much so that we actually invited her to our welcome dinner. Anna showed up to the wedding day full of zest and energy and immediately hit the ground running. And this gal did not stop all day. She was an absolute dream, we had several guest comment on how incredible she was. Anna made sure the stress level was low and the hype was high. She made sure we stuck to the timeline, and when we inevitably didn't she reminded us to just go with the flow. Anna was sure to check on me throughout the day to see if i needed anything (water, snacks, a dance break). She got right in the mix with our friends on the dance floor which i am convinced led to the most epic shots. Anna has an incredible eye for talent and is a wonderful person to work with. We got a huge lot of sneak peeks back just 3 days after our wedding! And every single one is gorgeous! 10 out of 10 experience, highly recommend. - Brittany + Adam
Anna Joy Photography is so worth the investment!
Working with Anna Joy Photography was one of the best wedding decisions I made. My husband and I chose to have a destination wedding, and Anna made me feel at peace about choosing an out of state photographer throughout the whole planning process. She made me feel cared for and valued as she checked in frequently and asked personal questions to be able to capture our love story the best. On top of being a great communicator, Anna made me and husband feel comfortable as she photographed both our engagement session and wedding day! She invested in getting to know us as a couple and was able to read our comfort level throughout our time together. She provided timely service and updates. Most importantly, she took the most AMAZING photos! You can see the heart Anna has for photography as she captures every detail so perfectly. If you are looking for a talented, personal, and superb photographer to capture special moments in your life, I would hands down recommend using Anna Joy Photography! - Morgan + Jose
Working with Anna was one of my BEST wedding-day decisions!
Anna is professional but SO nice and friendly, her editing is AWESOME, and whatever software and equipment she has, she sure knows how to work it. Everything from her angles and eyeballing great photos to making my pre-ceremony shoot a NON-stressful experience, she set a great tone for my wedding day and has given me the gift of a lifetime: perfect wedding photos. Thank you SO much, Anna Joy Photography! - Annie + Tim
Anna was a true JOY to work with for our engagement pictures.
She is organized, responsive, and professional, and also so warm and down-to-earth. I highly recommend the adventure shoot. We did ours at the beach cliffs of Palos Los Verdes and she made them look like a complete dream. Also worth mentioning, she was pregnant and FULLY committed to the process!! When you’re capturing something that should feel intimate, sometimes private and unique, you want someone there who is trustworthy, supportive and comforting. She made us feel completely free to be ourselves. Even through the awkward giggles and smiles, she was beautifully able to capture a picture of us that truly felt like a window into our relationship. It has been months and I am still having a hard time deciding which pictures to print and frame... They are all lovely. I am so grateful for our experience and I recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer. 11/10 recommend. - Jason + Naomi
