It is such an honor to be considered as your wedding photographer! I adore what I do. It’s about so much more than capturing moments- it’s about creating experiences that allow you to feel confident, genuine, & completely radiant! Weddings are such a beautiful celebration & my wish is not only to serve you as a photographer, but celebrate with you as a friend. As
friends, here are a few things you should know!
• I’m smitten by my bearded, music-loving hubby, David. He’s the one that keeps the sparkle in my eyes & whenever we’re together, I’m home. • I live in a charming cottage in Mobile, Alabama surrounded by spanish moss & southern charm. • I love wearing RED lipstick-- a little color goes a long way in my book! • One of my favorite ways to enjoy a Friday night is by inviting a few friends over for a meal-- I’m a big ole fan of hosting dinner parties & adore inviting people into the comfort of my kitchen. • There is an ever growing stash of LaCroix in my fridge. My favorite flavor is mango. • I only photograph 20-25 weddings a year so I can personally invest everything I am into my client’s photographic expereince. • I C E C R E A M - need I say more? • I believe that fresh cut flowers make the best decor. • I’m a hopless romantic for all things lovely & photographing a wedding in the South of France is on my bucket list!
MY PHILOSOPHY | There is probably an ever growing list of things to do somewhere near you. The wedding planning process can all be so very exciting, but also slightly overwhelming. These precious seasons can often be dipped in stress & dotted with “to dos”-- but I’m here to make sure that in the midst of it all, you don’t forget what really matters. I want to walk with you through this journey & capture the authentic love that you & your fiancéshare. Photography is so much more than images, it’s capturing & freezing tender moments in time. When my couples feel relaxed & comfortable in front of my camera, beautiful, timeless & radiant imagery is the result! Everything that you’ve dreamed for your wedding day to be should be shown in the images photographed. Not only will you have worked hard to select your decor, colors & vendors, but you also have created a story with your significant other that needs to be captured through the tender telling of your photographer’s lense!

T H E P R O C E S S | Building a relationship with my clients is the best way that I can serve them. I try my very best to make sure that my clients aren’t just customers, they are people that I would choose to be friends with & vice versa! This ensures clear communication, comfortablity & trust. A bride & groom should connect with their photographer, trust their photographer & be excited about the whole process! After booking, I love getting to know my clients through an Engagement Session! These sessions are my personal favorite, because they help my clients warm up to the camera so that they are ready to be pro’s in front of the camera on their wedding day! In the months leading up to the BIG DAY, I will work with my clients to create a custom timeline for their photographic needs. This eliminates stress & allows for them to enjoy every aspect of their day! When the wedding day arrives, my clients feel more like friends & that creates a safe & relaxed environment for photography. Now that you know a little bit about my approach to the wedding day, you can continue reading to find more detailed information about THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE!

YOU ARE LEAVING
Legacy
a
Far after the cake is consumed, the flowers have wilted & the honeymoon has ended, the photographs from your Wedding are the sparks that rekindle the emotions, sights & sounds of your most special day. I am a firm believer in the art of freezing moments. I believe with everything that I am that you are leaving a legacy that begins the moment you commit your love & life to your significant other. My goal is to authentically capture the radiance of your love, that will form into the leagacy you are leaving in & through your marriage.

I love getting to know my clients during these sessions! I am more than willing to travel for engagement sessions & I offer up to 60
Engagements :
miles of complimentary travel to anywhere you choose! I love it when my couples ask me to photograph them in a location that means something special to them! These sessions are up to 2 hours in length & allow for up to 3 outfit selections. You will recieve your digital negatives in an online viewing, sharing
Digital Files :
& printing gallery. I value the art of sharing imagery & delivering your files to you in the quickest, easiest way possible! These images will be backed up & online for 10 years because that’s what I would want if I were in your shoes! On average, my clients recieve 75-100 images per hour that I’m shooting. I would love to sit with you over coffee & a sweet treat to chat
Coverage :
through all the details of your day . Before we get into those fun details, my main goal right now is securing & saving your date. Once you’ve officially become an Anna Filly Bride, you can always add additional coverage as we get closer to the big day & once we have a good idea of your timeline.
T H ING S T O KNOW An inside look into your experience
I love being both interactive and discreet throughout the wedding day. There will be parts of the wedding day when I will
My shooting style :
need to be in control in order to accomplish everything that needs to be done while staying on schedule. There will also be moments when you shouldn’t even know that I’m there. (The ceremony, during dances and toasts, etc.) I teach my couples how to pose, model & interact during their engagement session so they are naturals on the wedding day & don’t need quite as much instruction from me!
Once I have answered any questions you may have & you have chosen the collection that suits you best, the next step is the contract
Booking :
signing & review. Our contract together will serve as the written document that guaruntees your ulitmate expereince with my wedding photography services. Once you’ve decided that you would like to move forward & become an Anna Filly Bride, you can save your date by signing your contract & paying your retainer online.

WHY INVEST? As an engaged couple, you will have to decide on numerous places to invest for your wedding. One of your first goals should be to set priorities & decide what matters most to you for your wedding day. Is it the dress? The food? The venue? The photography? As a photographer, I wholeheartedly believe that couples should make their photography a top priority. After the big day is over, you will leave your reception with a spouse & your pictures.... that’s it!
F A Q
the questions + details DO YOU TRAVEL? YES! Traveling is my favorite! Because I want to give you the best experience possible, I only charge $00.58 per mile outside of the Mobile area! If your destination is further than driving distance, travel costs will cover the plane ticket & lodging. These prices vary based on location :)
DO YOU OFFER ANY DISCOUNTS? I do not offer discounts. But I DO guarantee that you will have the best experience and your memories will be captured in the most beautiful, timeless and elegant way possible.
WILL I BE FEATURED ON THE BLOG? Most definitely! Sharing your images and story on the blog is my own personal way of celebrating who you are. I love getting to know my clients, writing about, and capturing who they are! Your blog feature also allows your friends and family to get to know you better and allows for you to share it with anyone!
19
DO I RECEIVE THE IMAGE PRINTING RIGHTS? Yes! Each collection comes with the printing, and sharing rights to your images.
HOW DOES THE BRIDAL SESSION WORK? Bridal sessions are my personal favorite. They are scheduled a month or so before your wedding & allow time for timeless, elegant & classic portraits of the bride to be captured. These sessions are the perfect way to prolong the magic of being a bride. Most vendors will also let you test hair + makeup & provide a sample bouquet as well.
WHY DO YOU LOVE ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS SO MUCH? They are just SO much fun!! Engagement sessions allow for my clients to learn the fundamental poses for their wedding day while educating them on how to create beautiful potriature. These sessions help my clients feel preapared & less stressed about their photographic expereince, while I get to know them, & they get to know me! Session locations are chosen by the client and allow for up to 2 hours of portriature!
WILL I NEED A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER? That is totally up to you! A second shooter offers another perspective of your wedding day! While my job is to capture traditional photos as well as candid photos, the second shooter’s job is to strictly capture candids & unposed photos. These photographs are timeless & precious & often are some of the most favored from the day! 20
THANK

I look forward to hearing from you! Be sure to visit the BLOG to view my most recent weddings.
