Hi, I'm Anaise (it rhymes with lace)


You deserve a calm presence on a busy day,

offering guidance in a way that feels natural and full of ease.


An extra set of hands to pin a boutonnière, or bustle a gown.


Front and center to capture your best moments, while simultaneously being a fly on the wall.


A friend to laugh with, ensuring the whole experience is full of joy, while capturing you at your best, to create the wedding photos of your dreams.

I photograph through the lens of a mother and a lover, which means I tend to feel things deeply.


I’m completely obsessed with my husband, so when I’m surrounded by couples who are crazy about each other, it naturally makes me think of him. It’s one of my favorite things about this work... carrying that feeling of love with me throughout the day. When I see true love and tenderness unfolding in front of my camera, I don’t just witness it, I feel it. Mothers and sons, fathers and daughters, they crack me open because I see myself in those relationships, and know just how quickly this season of life becomes a memory.


That’s why capturing these moments matters so much to me. The quiet glances, the tears, the laughter, the way someone reaches for you without even thinking.


I want to preserve not just what your wedding looked like, but what it felt like to be there, surrounded by the people you love most.

Get to know me



I'm a proud elder millennial, and a homebody who loves being outdoors. A neighborhood walk is all it takes to fill my cup. I'm really a low maintenance type of gal.


My favorite tv show is Golden Girls, and my favorite band is The Beatles.


I'm an extroverted introvert, a Gemini, and a really great listener.


I love photographing love, because I know how good it feels to be in it, and I believe it's so important to preserve that feeling.

16 years of Experience


I didn't know it then, but all of the photos I took with my disposable camera as a child, was an indicator of my future. I like to say my journey began in high school, shooting film and developing images in the dark room, but the truth is photography has been a love of mine since I was very young.


Since those early days, I've taken college photography courses and workshops throughout my career to refine my craft. I began working as a wedding photographer in 2010, and have been a business owner since 2015.


I feel deeply connected to nature and the outdoors, and that influence can be seen in my work.

These are a few of my favorite things...

Working At The Farmers Market

I manage my local farmers market! I love supporting the community and helping people have access to fresh, local produce.

Camping

I love spending time outdoors with my family. Nature is so relaxing and healing.

Our Community Garden

We lived in a city apartment for over 11 years, and during that time started a community garden. We weren't the best at gardening, but I loved being intentional about spending time there, tending to it and watching it grow.

The Orchestra

I'm a big fan of classical music, and I love going on dates with my husband to the orchestra whenever we have the chance.

Family Ski Trips

My husband has skied all his life, and he recently introduced our children to skiing. It's been so fun to watch our children learn a new skill, while I aprés all day.

"Look no further than Anaise! Her positive, calm energy brings you down to earth so you can soak in the moments of your important day. When we look at our photos today, we smile with so much emotion. You can feel the tears, the laughter, the music, and the warmth in every photo."

"Our wedding day was perfect and thanks to Anaise we’re able to relive it every day. From the first time we met her, she connected with us as a couple and was able to capture our love. Truly couldn’t ask for a more professional, comforting and accommodating photographer."
