Your wedding day is about you.

Your love story. Your new beginning.

I'd love to give you beautiful photos to document your special day.

  • I have a passion for mission trips. So far we have served in Belize, Thailand, Malaysia, and Hong Kong. I enjoy experiencing new cultures and spreading God's love!
  • My husband and I love hosting large get-togethers. The more people at our house, the better!
  • I think my DNA is made up of Coca-Cola. It's an addiction... and not a good one.
  • When the sun shines, my freckles have a mind of their own.
  • I love forming friendships with my clients. Lunch dates are my favorite!
  • I am ambitious. I am always looking for that window of opportunity.
  • My favorite shows are Friends and Parenthood.
  • My favorite movies are Titanic, Top Gun, and Little Woman. I also love anything musical.
  • My favorite author is, Francine Rivers.
  • My favorite treat is dark chocolate and anything mixed with dark chocolate.
  • My favorite food is French fries. Give me all the seasoning and dips!
  • My perfect day (alone) is a good book, sweatpants, and a blanket on the beach.
  • My perfect day (with my family) is still at the beach... but add a whole bunch of crazy!
  • Laughter is always the best medicine. Surround yourself with funny people. Call me if you need one ;)

Hey there! I'm Annalisa. I'm so happy you're here.

  • I am a lover for light. I'm always chasing that sunshine! Golden hour is my favorite hour.
  • Candids are my specialty. I love freezing those once in a lifetime moments and capturing raw reactions.
  • My style is clean, timeless, and filled with joy.
  • I am married to my high school sweetheart. Trent and I have been together since we were 14 years old (since 2004).
  • We tied- the-knot in June 2012 at Humphries Half Moon Inn and Suites in San Diego, CA.
  • My husband is a podiatric surgeon in North Park. If you have foot problems, check out North Park Podiatry.
  • We have been blessed with three sons named Bryer, Desmond and Calvin. Being a boy mom rocks!
  • We have two mini Australian Shepherds named Posey and Pepper. They are our fur children.
  • Our marriage bucket list is to visit all the Disneyland's around the world. We have visited 11 out of the 12 parks! Tokyo is last on our list!
  • I attended SDSU as a business major.
  • While in college, I interned for celebrity photographer, Robert Evans and assisted him at Blake Shelton & Miranda Lambert's wedding. One of my favorite weddings to date!
  • I love to travel! My husband and I have visited 16 countries and we are ready to add more to the list.
  • My husband won our first car in a Comic Con challenge. He lived in it for five days.
  • Trent and I were once casted to be on The Amazing Race. They changed our original film dates so we had to back out (or cancel our Summer wedding). His goal is to be on Survivor.
  • Cloudy weather is my favorite weather.
  • Christmas season is my favorite time of year. I think I was an elf in my past life.
