Working with Anna was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning. Not only is she talented and allows you to have the most beautiful photos of your special day, she is very on top of things and always willing to lend a helping hand during your wedding planning if you need it. Anna makes photoshoots feel very natural and comfortable, especially if you’re not used to that sort of thing! I would recommend Anna if you want the most beautiful memories of a special time in your life, you absolute will NOT regret it. 10/10!

"HIRE HER - BEST INVESTMENT EVER!!"
Working with Anna was such an awesome experience, we can’t recommend her enough. When shopping around for a photographer we were particular - we wanted someone professional, who shot in a timeless style. We knew that our photographer would be someone we were partnering with on important aspects of the day like timeline, in addition to being the one to capture the memories we would look back on. From the start, Anna was so friendly, helpful, accommodating and made us feel at ease. We had very little experience in front of the camera but it didn’t matter. She knows how to make you look your best.
We felt very comfortable with Anna and were able to just enjoy our day, trusting that the was there. Anna met and exceeded all expectations and I would recommend her to any bride or groom. Picking a photographer is a hard decision but you won’t regret your investment!

"EXCEEDED ALL EXPECTATIONS!"
She was warm, respected our boundaries,, and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was captured perfectly. She worked with the videographer, stayed late, and even sent us some polaroids before the sneak peeks and full gallery. Amidst all the vendors for our big day we found Anna to be the most crucial, as she is on the clock, has a lengthy list of family/friends photos to check off, and is trying to capture candids and moments that are impossible to fake, especially since neither of us have ever done a shoot before.
There are so many intangibles in working with a photographer that go beyond the quote and contract, but we found Anna to have exceeded them all! We would be most honored to work with her again in the near future!

"WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND!"
I really appreciate how Anna made the planning process simple and straightforward. What really appealed to be was her editing style and ability to capture fun candids. My spouse and I have never had experiences with getting our photos taken, and she made our first experience wonderful. Her calm demeanor helped me calm my nerves! She provided prompts that were wholesome and sweet, and took photos of us doing so. Seeing our photos was a surprise, because I never imagined us looking this awesome. Thank you so much!!

"HER CALM DEMEANOR CALMED MY NERVES"
We did both our engagement shoot and our wedding photos with Hey Honey. This whole team was a joy to work with! Anna went above and beyond, contacting the bar early so that we were able to get in early when the bar was completely empty. She even drove around the neighborhood ahead of time to find some local street art for the second half of our shoot. It was truly magical and the photos came out exactly as I hoped.
For our wedding, we had a couple members of Anna's team and they perfectly captured our day! Our final galley is so full of amazing shots, it's honestly more than I could have ever hoped for. They made our wedding look like something out of a magazine! Honestly, my favorite part was that they took the time to take photos of our guests--many of my friends will be getting their portraits as Christmas presents this year! Thank you so much...you were so much fun to work with!
