Meet: Annette, the Photographer

Hi there.

I'm Annette, and I love creating portraits for people. All the people!

When I began my journey in portrait photography, I noticed there were more plain photos rather than whimsical ones. I have set out to change that. I want to empower you through photography!

Let’s do an edgy family session if you're a heavy-metal-loving family. Recently divorced? Oh goodness, let’s celebrate you and your new adventure! Perhaps you have an alt kid who needs a little self-esteem-boost? Let’s fill their self-confidence cup through a session! I want to tell your story in a fun and exciting way.

If you are looking to create an imaginary persona for portraits, we can do that. All you have to do is bring your imagination, and I’ll bring my camera. Storybook and whimsical portraits are the absolute best!

Nature offers stunning scenery up here in the high desert. We have beautiful forests ideal for fairies, small lakes for mermaids, and an open desert for family photos. If you’re looking for something else, contact me, and we can find the perfect spot. Southern California has plenty of choices.

I am a print artist. I won’t let your photos fade away on screens. I only offer printed portraits. I focus on photographing you and turning those images into art for your walls. I design custom photo books, albums, and wall art.

I can’t wait to capture your story—whether it’s a dreamy fantasy, playful fun, or a hint of creepy. Each portrait is meant to brighten your space with joy and happiness. I’ll create a custom collection that shows off your personality. It’s more than a session; it’s a magical experience that provides treasured keepsakes.

For questions, to book a session, or to just say hi, please reach out.
