Boulder, CO Documentary Photographer
Small Weddings, Creative Headshots & Women’s Spiritual Events
Hi! I’m Annah. A documentary photographer specializing in small weddings/elopements, women’s events and lifestyle headshots.
The most special parts of your life
deserve to be documented celebrated
What I offer as a documentary photographer:
✔️ Capturing emotion
My posing and prompting techniques rely on getting to know your personality, what your natural smile looks like, and bringing out your natural movements. This might be brought on by baking cookies in your kitchen, walking your dog through the neighborhood or sitting in your backyard. Doing things you normally do in places you’d normally be. I encourage authenticity. If you have a pimple on your chin, I’ll of course edit that out and anything else that is temporary, but other parts of your body that make up who you are, I will not edit.
✔️ Making the ordinary look extraordinary
When I arrive at your home for family photos for example, I watch how the sun comes through the front window, the way your dog curls up on the couch like they have a million times before, the routine you go through to put on your shoes- things you do every day that make you who you are. I see your home as the place that keeps you safe, where you feel comfortable and are able to express yourself fully. I capture the details of your life and show how important your existence is.
✔️ Being an observer
Often times during your elopement or wedding, I’ll notice someone go in for a hug, see a special moment happen within 3 seconds and it only lasts for 2 seconds! I’m always anticipating these interactions. Maybe it’s your grandma reaching for your hand to tell you she loves you or I see a guest doing a twirl as I overhear someone compliment their dress. I’m excellent at looking for and documenting these beautiful moments.
*An important note: I am welcoming to all. All genders, sexualities, religions, ages, sizes, ethnicities, political views are welcome. I treat everyone I meet like an old friend. I believe that we are all connected, so kindness is crucial. Our time here is limited, and every moment is the most important. Even if you have acne, even if the weather is stormy, and even if you feel as though nothing “special enough” is happening to warrant having photos taken- your existence is enough! ❤️
“Annah made our group of shy folks feel so comfortable, and it shows in our photos. We love how the photos came out, and the whole experience felt so warm from start to finish.”
