Meet Anna, your Austin storyteller for life’s most meaningful moments. 

Hi there! I’m Anna, a Russian-born visual artist with a decade of experience documenting raw, beautiful human stories. After building a thriving photography business in Russia — where I captured 200+ births — I now call Austin home. Here, I’ve fallen in love with Texas light, open-hearted communities, and helping passionate people like you shine.

What I Offer
For Growing Families:

  • Birth photography (hospital & home) — documenting first breaths with discreet artistry
  • Fresh 48 sessions — those irreplaceable first days at the hospital/home
  • Maternity portraits — celebrating your strength and glow
  • Newborn baptisms — preserving spiritual milestones

For Professionals & Creators:

  • Authentic Branding Sessions — tell your business story through intentional imagery
  • Headshots That Speak — move beyond “corporate mugshots” to portraits with presence
  • Content Creation — cohesive visuals for your website/social media

Why Clients Trust Me:

  • Emotional Intelligence: Whether it’s a birth or boardroom, I read the room
  • Dual Expertise: Trained in both documentary and commercial styles
  • Your Rules: Private sessions never shared without consent
  • Texas-Approved: Fluent in both medical protocols (for births) and professional branding needs

My approach:

Your brand photos should capture the spark that makes your work unique — not just sterile professionalism. Your birth story deserves to be remembered with all its real, messy glory. Both require:

  • Authentic Connection (I don’t just say “cheese”)
  • Artistic Precision (every shadow and highlight intentional)
  • Emotional Safety (you’re seen, not staged)

Let’s create precios images

Currently booking:

  • Spring 2025 births (limited availability)
  • Bluebonnet season (April)
  • Branding sessions (studio or Austin locations)
  • Quarterly headshot marathons for entrepreneurs
