Discover Your Magic

Adventures in Storybook Land

Portraits should spark whimsy and magic. I want to capture the magic that lingers inside you. When you see your portrait hanging in your home, it's not just a picture—it's a memory. Studies show that photos displayed in the home boost children's self-confidence and give them a sense of belonging. Allow your child to wear that silly hat during their session. The day will come when they won’t want it anymore.

The Darker Side

Where Stardust meets the shadows. Whether you want to explore the strange and unusual or reveal something twisted and sprinkle it with humor. Let’s explore this side of you and create something surreal. You bring the gas mask, and I’ll bring the camera. A photo book is a perfect option for displaying taboo portraits if you’re unsure how you’ll display them.

Fantasy Land

Your session is truly what you decide to make of it. Embrace your love for eccentricity with props and fun clothing while dancing (or sitting) in a beautiful location. We’ll share laughs while adding a little wonder to your images. Boring is for work and school, let’s turn their world upside down!

Say NO to Boring Photos 〰️

Hi there! I’m Annette, a portrait photographer serving the High Desert and Southern California.

I love creating stories through photos and making wall art for your home. Whether you want creepy or magical forest images, I’m your gal.

Each session begins with printing in mind. I’m a print artist; you’re not only getting digitals with me. Nothing is more fulfilling than walking past a beautiful photo of yourself displayed in your home.

With me, you take the magic home with you!

The Portrait Session Process

Consultation

We’ll start with a quick 20-minute phone call to discuss what, who, where, and why you want to do a photo session. I’ll share pricing and the process.

I can come to your home and help you decide the type and size of wall art that is best for your room. I will also show you samples I offer so you can touch and feel everything.

Your Session

I’ll arrive early to scope out the location and find a good spot. If we’re doing an in-home session, I’ll bring all the things to set up a faux studio.

I will guide and pose you throughout the entire session. Don’t know what to do with your hands? I got you. We’ll laugh a lot, too, because pictures are fun and shouldn’t feel stuffy. It’s YOUR day to shine!

I’ll edit your photos afterward, within 3 weeks.

The End, sorta

Reveal Day

Fall in love with your story all over again! We will meet up to go over your images. You choose which images you want printed, and how.

2-3 weeks after that, I’ll hand-deliver your wall art and albums. This is the best part!

I love seeing the joy on every client’s face.
