From the Doff Family
We were looking for a photographer for our son's Bar Mitzvah. Unfortunately, the photographer we would have gone with initially, went in a completely different direction than what we wanted to do. We found Anne through a friend of our daughter's. They used Anne for their daughter's Bat Mitzvah. Having contacted Anne after hearing truly amazing things, we set up an initial session to see her work and ask questions. From the moment Anne came to see us at our home, we knew that she would make the perfect photographer to help us remember our son's special event. Anne was objective, kind, caring, open to suggestions of what and how WE wanted to remember our son's special event. We had a ton of questions for her, but Anne was really the one to ask all of the questions. Keenly interested in what we envisioned, Anne took copious notes and made sure that this would be the event we truly envisioned.
Anne left. We knew about a minute thereafter, that Anne would be our son's photographer. Easy to do business with, easy to talk to, easy to address any issues that arose, from beginning to end, Anne has nailed down every aspect of producing not only a phenomenal album, but being professionally on point every step along the way.
Our son chose to do his pre-event portraits in Annapolis. Every angle, every shot, every image was perfectly captured. Before the Bar Mitzvah, Anne once again arrived at our synagogue, ready to go. Images we never thought we would be able to capture, Anne accomplished flawlessly and effortlessly. The evening of the celebration for our son, Anne truly nailed it. From the moment we arrived at Temple until the last guest left, Anne was literally everywhere and provided our family and our guests with memories that will surely last a lifetime.
Some say, it's easy to take pictures. For some people, this skill comes a little easier than for others. Anne is not a good photographer, nor is she a great photographer. Anne is a truly gifted artist who can take any living moment and turn it into something that nobody might have expected. Anne created images for us that we didn't even consider the day of in many cases. It is only after the fact, that we have been blessed with seeing the results of her photographic creativity and design. Anne has taken photography to a completely out-of-this-world level. Her images are crisp, clean, and deeply emotional. Anne is beyond talented, beyond accomplished at her craft. She is fantastic, impressive, outstanding, extraordinary and remarkable at what she does.
We cannot be more thrilled for having chosen Anne to do our son's event. We were blessed with her neverending professionalism throughout this journey. Thank you Anne for creating life-long memories. You are a truly gifted and talented photographer.
