Meet The Photographer

Hi, I'm Annette, and I want to take the best photograph you’ve ever seen of yourself!

I began my photography journey later in life and noticed a lack of whimsical and fantasy images. I want to change that.

Life is too short, let’s throw some fun at it!

Who are Fantasy Portraits for?

Everyone! If you’re a heavy-metal-loving family, let’s do an edgy session. Recently divorced? Oh goodness, let’s celebrate you and your new life! Perhaps you have a child or teen who needs a self-esteem boost? Let’s fill their confidence cup through a portrait session!

Where will your session take place?

Nature has handed us gorgeous scenery up here in the high desert. We have forests that are ideal for fairy princesses, lakes for fishing gents, and a big open desert for wild family photos. I can even photograph the little ones in your backyard.

I can bring backdrops and lighting to create a studio setting for a more artful session as well.

My Process:

I am a little different than other photographers- I walk you through each step of your photo journey from start to finish. I won’t let your beautiful images fade away on screens.

I print them!

I photograph you and then design wall art to display in your home. I focus on turning your images into beautiful prints, canvases, metal prints, and more. I can also create custom photo books and albums.

I’m excited to tell your story—whether it’s a dreamy fantasy, fun and silly, or a bit spooky. Each photo will add excitement to your home and a smile to your face. This is more than just 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.
