Baltimore
One of Anna’s favorite places to shoot is in Baltimore… the Inner Harbor, Federal Hill and Fells Point.

Federal Hill offers breathtaking views of the entire city. Baltimore really is a perfect place for your photos.

It was while she was teaching that she started photographing families as a fun, artistic outlet. After a photoshoot with some friends and their toddler in 2010 everyone began to rave about her photographs and encouraged her to consider going into photography as a career. She captured authentic, unique moments of the family that seemed natural and unforced. The realness and the beauty of the pictures were stunning! It launched her creativity and passions and made her realize that this could be a career.
Anna continued to teach and decided to continue to photograph friends and their families as a creative outlet to escape the stress of teaching. As more people noticed her work, she gained a reputation and started second shooting at weddings in 2011. Her skills increased with every picture she took. She built up a client base and got connected with fellow photographers in the DMV. It wasn’t long before Anna decided that photography was the path in life she wanted to take.
