“I hired Annie to take photos for my new dental office website. She put me and my staff at ease. I was so impressed I hired her to take my family photographs, too. She’s easy to work with and does great work.”

“We are so pleased with the senior photos! Annie made our often-shy son feel very comfortable! The hard part is now choosing which ones to use!!! We will be singing Annie’s praises to EVERYONE we know!! Thank you!”

“I have used Annie twice for my kids’ photo shoots and will continue to do so! She was able to get great pics of my 1 year old, despite the mood that the baby was in that afternoon, and my son absolutely loves her! I love how comfortable she makes you feel and the time she takes to get to know you during the shoot! I never got pictures like these from the traditional studio that we used to go to! Will definitely be seeing Annie twice a year from now on!!!!! Keep up the fantastic work!”
Angie Derflinger
“I would be hard pressed to ever go back to a traditional photo shoot for my kids. Thank you so much for the capturing the energy and spirit of my children. Each photo is so unique…you can visually sense the competition, creativity, and even some rare moments of affection! Bonus: I loved leaving with all the photos on my flash drive! Thanks again for a great experience.”

Families
“Annie has taken our family photos the last two years. What’s equally as impressive as the photos she captures, is her easy-going spirit. She doesn’t force poses and places, but encourages her subjects to pick locations with meaning and lets them be themselves. That’s not to say she won’t provide direction with an occasional ‘chin up’ or ‘get a little closer to each other’ comment, but it’s always a relaxed experience. With two rambunctious boys, I appreciate how understanding she is of their goofiness and exuberance. Getting them to stay on task can be a struggle, which might leave me a frustrated mess were it not for her creativity and understanding. She lets my boys be boys. She provides ALL the photos she takes, so there’s no high-pressure struggle to winnow a hundred proofs down to five. What I love about that the most is that my favorites among the images she captures are rarely the traditional family photo, but rather, my boys making goofy faces or embracing in a casual brotherly hug. The price is reasonable. The photos are awesome. And the experience is fun. That is the trifecta of awesome family photography, in my opinion.”

“Having a very shy daughter and rambunctious son, we have never been able to get family photos that looked natural to say the least. Annie had my children laughing, playing, and being themselves while taking beautiful photos at the same time. After our photo session we also got to keep those images on a flash drive instead of being sold an expensive portrait package. We had an awesome experience with Annie and would definitely love to have our family moments captured by her for years to come!”
Chelsea Cobb
“Annie has a gift for making you feel very comfortable in front of the camera. I usually get nervous, with all the pressure to look natural. This time, though, it was easy to feel …and look natural, shot after shot. Annie gives excellent guidance as she’s taking excellent photos of you. Not once did I feel rushed or uncomfortable. We got almost 300 shots out of the session. I am going to have a very hard time choosing among the incredible array of great shots to narrow it down to the ones I want to print. You get all the shots on a flash drive to keep with you and print at your leisure. Nobody else offers a deal like that! One thing Annie is also known for is getting the best expressions out of their subjects, especially kids. I highly recommend her.”

“Ann made me feel at ease when she did our family pictures this past summer. I am not fond of being photographed, but Ann made the experience perfectly comfortable for me and my family. Being relaxed during a photo session makes all the difference! I would recommend Ann over and over again!”
Kris Walker King
“My boys (8 & 4 years old) and I had a BLAST with our experience. They felt so comfortable being themselves- their goofy love-y selves. There are so many great poses of them being close brothers and then there are the funny- glad you caught those incredible expressions- poses. Now I just need to narrow them down to my top ten pics! Annie and Jess really made us feel comfortable and welcome to take our time and have FUN with it!”
Angi Greeno
“Annie did a great job of making man and beast feel at ease! The smiles we received when we pulled up with our pet cage were priceless. Thanks for making our Christmas cards out shine all other years!! We actually enjoyed being photographed.”
Angie Weiland & family
“Annie and Jess did a terrific job taking our family photos, they turned out great. You both did a great job of trying to get a busy toddler to sit and smile:) Thanks!

”Annie is so great at making you feel at ease taking your photos. We used her for our pregnancy photos and also for our newborn photos taken just 6 days after Elijah was born, which included Grandma and our dog as well. She did such a great job with both shoots and I love to show everyone the wonderful photos that we’ll treasure for a lifetime! I recommend her to everyone I know!”

“Thanks so much for the photo shoot tonight! It was fun, creative and SO easy with you at the helm of the camera. I can’t believe how good the photos turned out…is that really me? I would highly recommend you to everyone! Hope to do it again soon!”
Angie Antkowiak Kosirog
“Annie is such a pleasure to work with, easily bringing our best to light. She kept things light and joyful, with variety in the poses and expressions so that we had many great “moods” to choose from. Our recommendation is a 5-star one!”

“Annie did a fabulous job of capturing the essence of the young spirit of our 40th anniversary wedding party. I cannot say enough good things about her incredible talent and intuition. Love her to death. Call her now – you won’t be disappointed.”
Carolyn Taylor
“Annie shot a holiday party for our office staff. She was on her feet for over two hours, but never stopped smiling. She has a way of putting people at ease and making them feel comfortable having their photo taken. I would highly recommend her as an event photographer. Heck, I’d highly recommend her as a photographer, period!”

Weddings
“Annie was our wedding photographer. I use the word “photographer,” but she did much more than take photos. She captured the very essence of our day. She gave us our ‘story’ through her lens. I can’t tell you how many times I have looked at our pictures and can remember everything that was happening at the very moment! Annie has an easygoing personality that works well with stressed-out brides and grooms. She has an eye for capturing the essence of the shot – not just the picture.”
Lisa Mosier Bunn
“Annie did a fabulous job of capturing our wedding photos! Annie stayed in steady contact and provided ideals and captured all of our special moments. There were even pictures that I had forgot to ask her for and when we reviewed the pictures she had captured them plus pictures that I should have thought of but didn’t! When the reception ended, Annie provided me with a flash drive of all of the pictures she had taken. We were able to play them on our TV the morning after with our family. I would recommend Annie to anyone looking for a great photographer that will capture all of your special moments!”
Hope Krueger Gardner
“Annie and Jess did an AWESOME job with our wedding photos. The hardest part is deciding which will be our “main” wedding pic! Thank you so much for giving us memories of our special day.”
