About Me

My name is Annie and I have had a wild journey to land here in my Rhinebeck studio in the heart of the Hudson Valley. I have over 10 years of experience working out of my studio in NYC, as well as, dabbling in the world of reality TV, if you like Food Network, we can chat about all the celebrity chefs!  On top of that, my husband and I deployed to Afghanistan together, it's actually where we fell in love! So, it's been nutty!

​

We came to Rhinebeck when I was pregnant with my son and my husband was fresh out of the NY State Trooper Academy, we didn't know where he would end up, so we guessed and chose a town.  We chose so well!  After having my son, I joined all the mommy groups, music classes, etc and received a warm welcome from the community. It is a very loving place.

​

When my son was 4 months old I started looking for locations to move my portrait business, permanently, North.  While a lot has changed, my love for photography, preserving memories and the art of the print has not.

​

My goal is to make all my clients their most comfortable, best selves in front of the camera. I specialize in maternity moments, newborn yawns and family giggles, but my experience in NYC means I take a pretty mean headshot too!

Come visit me in the Hudson Valley!
