Best in the business!!!

Drop everything you're doing and book Anna Schmidt Photography immediately! We seriously cannot thank her enough for helping make our wedding day one to remember! Not only did the photos from our engagement shoot and wedding turn out fantastic (!!!) but we really enjoyed spending time with Anna and her team. We are still hearing from our guests about how amazing, professional, and friendly they were to everyone. In going through our album, we love how she captured moments and memories that make you feel like you are transported back to the time and place of our wedding, in addition to the absolutely gorgeous portraits and drone shots! We will cherish these photos for a lifetime and for generations to come. Anna's kindness and calm demeanor was very much appreciated on the day of our wedding and we felt zero stress because we knew we were in such good hands! She made us feel very comfortable and natural. She was extremely organized and captured all of our dream photos and then some! Thank you so much, Anna!

Anna is the best!

Where to even begin? Incredible. Just absolutely incredible. Anna and her team are absolutely phenomenal and you should without a doubt book them for your wedding! Starting with our engagement photos, Anna turned two awkward engineers in to people that can pose for beautiful photos! On our wedding day, Anna and her team were the definition of professional, making sure we got our family photos done AHEAD of time so that we had even more time for portraits of my now-husband and I. When they pulled out the drone to take photos, we almost lost it - SO cool!

I’ll I can say is hire Anna, you will not regret it!

Amazing wedding photographer

Anna and her team are truly the best! Anna was so attentive to all of our requests and details. She was a pleasure to talk to and bounce ideas off of. We loved getting engagement photos which really helped us feel comfortable and ready for photos on the big day! The big day… OMG, Anna and team was there so early! They were on it with creating and sticking to the schedule. They were attentive to every detail. There was always someone snapping away at every turn. The cherry on top was that Anna brought us a printed picture from earlier in the day during the reception and it was UNREAL. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Anna and team.

Top Notch Photographer!!

We loved working with Anna for our wedding. She is a consummate professional who was communicative, responsive, and easy to work with from start to finish—not to mention fun! We had a great time working with Anna and she put us both at ease right away, which was especially great since neither of us is photographed very often. We appreciated her creativity and vision, as well as her incredible efficiency. It doesn't take Anna long to see, set up, and get the shot she wants. We were amazed at how beautiful the photos were and Anna's ability to find the best poses, lighting, and creative ideas. We are so glad we hired Anna for our engagement shoot and wedding and can't imagine having worked with anyone else!

Prepare to be amazed!

Anna and her team are absolutely phenomenal. The pictures we have gotten from our engagement session and now our wedding are breathtaking. We are so pleased with the entire experience. It is so hard to pick our favorites from her work because so many shots are perfect. Anna makes you feel very comfortable in front of the camera. I will be recommending her to all of my friends and family.

Amazing Photographer - You will not regret using Anna and her team!

I had the perfect wedding! Anna Schmidt and her team played a huge part in ensuring a stress-free day where I was relaxed to pose for her beautiful images. From our initial consultation, I felt a strong connection to Anna. She is organized and professional and immediately put me at ease. We communicated so much ahead of time that the wedding day was a breeze. Anna knew the important shots to get and blended into the background to get some perfect candid shots. I cannot say enough good things about Anna and her team. I highly recommend Anna Schmidt Photography!

The absolute best

I cannot say enough good things about Anna and her team! She did our engagement photos and shot our wedding, and we absolutely LOVED every shot she took from both. (We also got SO MANY compliments from family and friends). She is so passionate about what she does and truly has such an eye and talent for it. She really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and to perfectly capture the wedding day! Also, from start to finish, working with Anna was so easy and enjoyable-- communication with amazing (she would respond nearly instantly every time, with the most detailed responses). And, to top it all off, after working for over 12+ hours on wedding day, she surprised us and all our guests at the end of the night by having some of the photos, from just hours earlier, edited and played on a big screen in our reception room! And then yet again she surprised us by having a GORGEOUS preview gallery ready within 48 hours of our wedding. We were blown away by her thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and desire to make our day as perfect as possible! HIRE HER!!! I promise you will not regret it!
