Hi, I'm Anna, a wedding and family photographer based in East Sussex.
I am a relaxed, friendly, storytelling, don't-get-in-the-way, emotion and connection seeking kind of photographer.
I aim to tell the story of the day so that your photos feel like your wedding. I'm not trying to get my photos in Vogue - I'm trying to get them on your walls, in the favourites folder on your phone and shared with your family and friends.
I have been photographing weddings and families since 2018. I do enjoy taking photos of landscapes while I'm on holiday but it is taking photos of people that I really love.
Over time, I have learned what I enjoy most and where I do my best work. Let me share...
Wedding Photography
My favourite parts are the confetti, speeches, anyone crying and sunset portraits. I am proud of the fact that I can make couples feel relaxed in front of the camera so that their portraits feel natural. I can capture the emotion of your ceremony, the laughter during the speeches and candid photos of your guests having fun, often without them even realising I'm there. I hunt out the emotional and joyous moments all day because I know they will matter to you and so they matter to me too. You can check out my wedding photos here.
Family Photography
I love photographing families outdoors where we can play games, get a little noisy, get moving, do some big laughing and capture energy and real smiles. I like a family photoshoot that gets a little silly and that everyone enjoys (even the dads). You can check out my family photos here.
About Me
I moved from Surrey to Hastings in 2020 to move in with my lovely husband and step-children and, since then, three cats and a springer spaniel have joined the clan - all the animals enjoy a nightly walk around the block together before bed.
I love planning trips, stand-up comedy, a good book, walks with dogs, a road trip anywhere in the world, beaches in winter, snow-covered mountains, log cabins, an open fire, a nice wine and sitting in restaurants for hours with friends. I am definitely an autumn/winter person (not just because I am ginger and not made for the summer) and I seek out warmth and cosiness.
After sixteen years in teaching and school leadership, I also work for a multi-academy trust supporting curriculum development. I am really passionate about the power of a good education.
I should probably also tell you that I hate having my photo taken so I feel and understand your fear! I am the worst for making people take several shots before I am happy.
