I love Anna's energy! She jumps in with ideas about poses, the location, and notices every detail (tucking in a flyaway hair, etc). Talking to Anna during the shoot helped me feel confident, which showed up in my photos.

Working with Anna was a wonderful experience! She has a gift for making you feel at ease and bringing out your natural self. The photos were beautiful, and I've been proudly using one of mine as my professional headshot ever since.

I love the photos Anna took—in a single session, she beautifully captured the many different facets my work. She provided several photos that I use for headshots, as they beautifully capture my personality and love for science, while maintaining a high degree professionalism.

Hi, my name is Anna. My approach to photography is centered on portraiture and authentic storytelling. Outside of photography, I'm a novice blacksmith, choral singer, and pipe organ tuning apprentice. I also write, illustrate, and design within the sphere of science and technical communication and hold degrees in Microbiology (BS) and Biochemistry (PhD).
