Sweet words

Lorin

Lorin married Chase at the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Mobile, Alabama, & the celebration continued at The Fort Conde Inn

“Working with Anna was such a joy! She has a wonderfully bright and upbeat personality that made everyone feel comfortable. Her talent and experience gave me confidence throughout the entire process. Trusting her to capture our memories was one of the best decisions we made!”

Leslie

Leslie & Ronnel’s engagement session took place in the heart of downtown Mobile, Alabama

“Working with Anna was such a dream. I am one of those people that was actually nervous about taking engagement photos for fear of being in awkward positions or something. But not with Anna, she is such a professional and made us feel super comfortable, almost like a friend was taking our photos. She is such a sweet soul and a truly talented photographer, you’d be making a mistake if you didn’t hire her to take your photos. Our photos came out BEAUTIFUL! Better than I could have ever imagined. Thank you Anna!”

Sarabeth

Sarabeth married her husband, John, tied the knot at Canterbury United Methodist Church and the Reception was held at the Club in Birmingham, Alabama

“Anna did our engagement and wedding photos and we were so impressed! We LOVED them! She was so easy to work with and was so patient with answering my thousands of questions. Loved working with her. We will definitely be using her again in the future!!!”

Amber

Amber Housley hosts the Inspired Retreat each year for creative business owners just outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

Anna does an incredible job at capturing exceptional details. She is able to coordinate large groups while maintaining a positive energy level and atmosphere. She is enthusiastic and passionate about what she does, and you can see it in her photos! Anna is amazing to work with!

Mary

Mary and her family live outside Oneonta, Alabama.  The images from their family session were used to adopt their fifth son, Jack

Anna was such a joy to work with during our recent lifestyle session for our adoption profile book. It was important to show the true essence of our home on a typical day and Anna did just that. She was so fun and immediately put us all at ease with her sweet and spirited demeanor. Our four sons adored her, she played and laughed and even crawled into their fort with them. We enjoyed our session so much that we were sad to see it end but were excited to see what Anna had captured.  Our gallery was everything that I had hoped for and more. She captured our personalities and our home perfectly. Anna is such a talented photographer and you can really see that in the quality of her images. We couldn’t recommend Anna Filly Photography enough.

Josie

Josi married JR at Hedge Farm right outside of Memphis, Tennessee 

Anna photographed our wedding, and we were so thankful she did! Not only were we so pleased with our images, but we’re so thankful to have a fun, stress-free and sentimental time with Anna on our wedding day! She was flexible and helped make the wedding day go smoothly! We were/are very thankful for this talented photographer and friend! 

Bekai

Bekai was a senior at Oneonta High School and now attends Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama

Anna was the first person to professionally photograph me and it was SUCH a great experience!! She builds your confidence so much as she photographs you and she thinks about all the little details!! She even catered to my insecurities which made a huge difference when looking at the final pictures:) 100% recommend for anything. She is such a light & a genuinely sweet person!

Taylor

Taylor married Samuel at the Fort Conde Inn

There aren’t enough words in the world to describe how thankful we are that we chose Anna Filly Photography for our wedding day. From the engagement all the way until the end of our wedding night, she went above & beyond for us. We have a forever friend in Anna & she will always be our go to girl for the special events in our lives! 

Tammy

Tammy and her husband John got married at the Battle House Hotel in Mobile, Alabama.  Tammy’s daughter, Lorin, also became an Anna Filly Bride and got married to Chase at the Fort Conde Inn.

“I had the pleasure of working with Anna Filly Photography on several occasions. The first, as a bride. Anna had a way of bringing out and capturing the most authentic version of me and my husband. Her energy and laughter is infectious which puts everyone in front of her camera at ease. When my daughter became engaged, I wanted her to have the same wonderful experience with a photographer.  Without a second thought, we chose Anna Filly photography. As mother of the bride, not only did Anna capture the most radiant images of my daughter, she was meticulous in keeping with the wedding event timeline. By doing so, she made the day easy, allowing me to take in every special moment of the day. “

Kristin

Kristin owns the Society for Creative Founders.  SCF is a company dedicated to investing in creative business owners.  They host a conference each Fall and retreats throughout the year.

Anna is professional, flexible, encouraging and entertaining, exactly what you need in a Conference setting and so much more. As much as we would love for everything to go according to plan, sometimes sessions go longer or shorter than expected or the weather decides not to cooperate with what we originally planned out for the daily schedule.  She goes with the flow but is confident in telling us what she needs in order to make everything work well, along with providing images that always far surpass our expectations. She has the patience of a saint. Rather than getting frustrated when pressures arise, she handles them with professionalism and goes above and beyond to put everyone around her at ease.  Her eye captures the moments that are both seen by everyone and those that happen quietly in the background, the ones that the majority of the time have the biggest impact on our attendees. She is polite, respectful, and works hard, and the joy she exudes is like a breath of fresh air to have around you during a Conference Experience as well. The images that she captures with her eye are always beautifully done, and her clean and classic editing style allows us to stay consistent with our branding, which is incredibly important for our Conference from a longevity perspective so that we can use the images she creates for years to come.

Hannah

Hannah & her family have been photographed by Anna Filly on multiple occasions & through many life events.

I  love working with Anna! Every time she sends me our sneak peaks my expectations are always surpassed! Not only are her photos beautiful, but she is so much fun to work with and she makes every session so easy & fun! 

Nick

Nick married his wife Nicole at the Ruins at Kellum Valley in Cleveland, Georgia

Anna is a pro, she has the perfect personality, she loves what she does, she brings things out of you that you couldn’t do on your own, and she clearly loves the Lord. 

Thad

Thad proposed to Korin on the beaches of Pass Christian, Mississippi and later got married in Pensacola, Florida

Anna was fantastic, Very friendly and helpful with advice when I asked for it. The entire experience was great. She went above and beyond what she needed to do. I also really enjoyed the various poses she had us do. These were things we would have not thought of in the moment and probably ever. I was so caught up emotionally. Everything came out wonderfully because of her. 

Kayla

Both of Kayla’s children were photographed by Anna Filly.  From Birth through their first year.

Anna makes you feel like you are the MOST BEAUTIFUL person/couple in the world. Her sweet words make you feel so comfortable during your shoot. She does such a great job of really seeing and understanding what you want in your photographs and it really comes out in the work she produces!

Judah graduated Pre-K today ! Our sweet boy is now Judah graduated Pre-K today ! Our sweet boy is now on to kindergarten !!! We have had such a fabulous experience at his school. We are eternally grateful for Ms. Allison & all the teachers that have loved our little ones. This momma is going to bed so grateful. The friends Judah has made over the last three years have  been such a gift. I pray they last a lifetime. I can’t stop reminiscing over my favorite moments 🤍 I’m firmly aware that these are the “ good ole days”. What an incredibly sweet season 🥹🤍
This lovely wedding day was a huge highlight in Ap This lovely wedding day was a huge highlight in April! A weekday wedding, Haleigh & MacCrea tied the knot on a Tuesday. The weather was perfect, they shared private vows before the ceremony & these two were smitten! 🌸✨
I absolutely LOVED chasing blooms & capturing pure I absolutely LOVED chasing blooms & capturing pure sunshine for Addy’s Senior portraits. 🌸✨🎀 Addy is lovely, hardworking, gracious & sweet. 

Can you believe that half of these were captured in front of a Dairy Queen in the middle of the city ?!

That winter light just hits different. ✨🩵 Can That winter light just hits different. ✨🩵 Can you see the blue in it ? Sometimes I even see blush. 

When we first moved to Southwest Virginia, I was in complete awe of how much WIND the area received.  Gusty winds make for even colder temperatures, and I’m not the biggest fan of the cold.  Ask any photographer and they will tell you that wind is your biggest enemy when capturing photos. 

Even with the gusty winds, Leigh Ann and Andrew’s maternity session turned out incredible.  We used the wind to our advantage and beautiful portraiture was captured.  I mean— just LOOK at that first photo!!

Leigh Ann + Andrew are counting down the days until they get to meet their little one.  Aren’t they darling?! I absolutely loved this session!

November 🦃 🍂 🍽️ This month held so man November 🦃 🍂 🍽️

This month held so many precious events & emotions. I am a girl who feels deeply, so when our family nanny (& my unofficial little sister) asked me to be her Matron of Honor, I became an honored puddle. Everyone in our family of 6 got to be a part of Jaydon & Avery’s wedding day. It was marvelous. In fact, right before I was about to walk down the aisle, Faith toddled over to the dirt, rubbed her hands in it and wiped them all over her white dress😂THEN, she decided to walk down the aisle TWICE. I love that little biscuit so much. 

Judah turned FIVE this year. I look at him & I see a baby who became a boy who is becoming a man. This child is so precious. His tender heart & adventurous spirit remind me that there is so much life to be lived.. & to never take life too seriously 🤍

Lina started using the big girl potty. 🚽 Literally just because. Magical! She continues to live however she pleases & I love that about her. She will find her way & she will do it joyfully. What a gift.

Alexander is our energizer bunny. He is forever helping me with tasks & chores. He is always the first to want to bake or cook with me & needs daily outside time. He reminds me that I need to slow down. To observe, to listen, to be— doing isn’t the point. BEING is. God knit this child together with such vibrancy— I never want to miss it bc I assume my way is better.

Our sweet family got to do so many wonderful things. From early morning bagel dates with dad, to hosting Friendsgiving, to seeing Wicked (I cried, shocker), to Christmas Tree hunting & hosting my family for Thanksgiving- it was such a joy to have so much love & light in one month.

*not pictured but I want to remember: Feeling like myself again, Dave having sparkle in his eyes, the absurd amounts of laundry, Faith walking everywhere like a drunken sailor 🥹, learning to ask for help, hiring contractors (in October) to renovate a bathroom (a one week project turned to four weeks), & one of the brothers shared the gospel with me- I cried (shocker , again) bc his story was so incredible & I needed hope that night. So grateful.
Abounding in gratitude & generously blessed 🥲 I Abounding in gratitude & generously blessed 🥲 I love this crazy crew of mine. We may have practically three 2 year olds (aka super spicy, independent toddlers) but it is the most magical thing being their momma. I can’t get enough of these little loves.

Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours 🤍 🦃 🍽️
Happy birthday, my little joy girl! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You are sassy, smart & vibrant. You started talking as quickly as you were able & havent stopped since! Your eyebrows never fail to let us know exactly what you’re thinking. I love that you know what you want & you are unabashedly yourself. You sparkle with joy & are incredibly tough. You tumble with your brothers & yet are incredibly sweet with your baby sister. You already want to be a momma , & it’s the cutest thing watching you. I can’t believe you’re TWO!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love everything about you, Lina Joy ⭐️🫶🏻🌈

I’m in my birthday party throwing era. With four I’m in my birthday party throwing era. With four littles, we have a birthday every few months & I absolutely love a reason to celebrate. This year, I tried something new & it was a dream come true: I threw myself a birthday party. 🥳 👒🌸🌻🎂🍾

I wanted to throw a special dinner party in the garden, surrounded by the women who have grown with me & helped shape me here in Roanoke. We laughed, shared, clinked glasses & ate really good food.

The gift of being intentionally together was more than I could have asked for. Cheers to 33 & all that this year holds 🤍

Special thanks to @fourarrowsfarms for the incredible, custom bath salts for each guest !! ✨🤍 🫧
