Holly Anne Photography

"I love the people I photograph. I mean, they’re my friends. I’ve never met most of them or I don’t know them at all, yet through my images I live with them" - Bruce Gilden

Hi, I am Holly a wedding and family photographer based in the pretty little town of Pembroke, Ontario.

I am a loving mother of 3 amazing boys, a proud spouse to a wonderful kind-hearted man, and without a doubt the biggest hopeless romantic you'll ever meet.

My love for photography started about 6 years ago and really grew to another level these past few years after having the privilege to work with/for a well-known and established photographer as her associate, and second shooter. It was during these past two years that I have really learned the skill and beauty of photography and flourished with my photographic style which has been described as classic, elegant and pure.

We will get along beautifully if you are outgoing, love chocolate (or anything sweet), can't resist a good chick-flick, or tv drama series, have a quirky sense of humour, and see beauty in all aspects of life.

Three things that just have to be said about me are:

1. I absolutely adore babies! I don't know if it's the blowing bubbles while they sleep, that scrumptious baby smell or those darn pudgy cheeks I just want to smooch!! I just cannot resist baby snuggles and that magical love between a newborn and his/her beautiful new parents

2. I have one of the most genuine, romantic, mushy hearts, and classic old soul ya'll may ever meet. I can't help but tear up at a father-daughter dance, or the first look and whether it be a Disney movie, Marley & Me, or a Budweiser commercial, you better believe this gal has a box of kleenex ready at hand. It is an absolute honour and privilege to capture and be a part of people's love stories and see those stories flourish from engagement - to weddings - to maternity and BABIES!!

3. When I'm not spending time photographing other people's families I am spending time with mine camping, or on some kind of adventure, the park or splash pad, the beach, or hiking through the woods enjoying the peace of the birds, admiring that glowing light between the trees and the laughter of my boys running free to roam and discover new things. If we're not out and about playing in the backyard, you will most likely find us cuddled up on the couch watching How to Train your Dragon, or Toy Story for the HUNDREDTH TIME!!

If you are reading this and can't help but smile from your heart, let out a giddy chuckle, or even an "amen sister" in agreeance then I CANNOT wait to meet you and be YOUR photographer. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me and I look forward to meeting/working with you!
