Hi, I’m Anaïs that's pronounced
AH-NAH-EES.
You've found a true French stereotype. I really am French, and now American too, which still feels wild to say! Food is my love language. If I'm not behind the camera, I'm probably in the kitchen cooking something delicious, blasting heavy metal, and singing as loud as I can.
I grew up in the countryside of the Champagne region and left France at 21 to see what was across the ocean. I haven't stopped exploring since. At first, I traveled alone, but now I explore with my husband and our sweet boy, Oban.
After spending a few years on the East Coast and building my career in NYC, we found our forever home in Bend, Oregon. Since 2021, Bend has been my full-time base for photographing couples in love and enjoying every free moment outdoors. In the summer, you'll find me hiking the mountains around Bend, camping, or floating the river in Sunriver. In the winter, I'm usually up at Mt. Bachelor snowboarding as much as I can before wedding season starts again. When I'm not out and about, I'm probably curled up with a good book. I read lot. Seriously, a lot!
I love the mountains and the peace of the outdoors, but I'm just as happy in a busy city with great food. I adapt wherever I go, and I bring that same sense of adventure, warmth, and openness into my work.
Wether, you're eloping on a mountain at sunset, planning a big party for your wedding with your favorite people, I can't wait to capture the moments that truly feel like you.

"My husband and I are not naturally comfortable in front of a camera, but she has this incredible gift for making us feel completely at ease. She knew exactly how to pose us, when to give direction, and when to let us just be ourselves. The result? The photos look effortless, natural, and genuinely capture who we are as a couple.
Her talent, professionalism, and warm personality made our wedding day so much more enjoyable. She made the entire process feel relaxed and fun while delivering the most stunning photos we've ever seen. Every single shot exceeded our expectations."
