“To keep it true and honest and real, I have to be hands off” 

Anni is a storyteller at heart, preferring to document intimate moments and details without embellishments. Though her photographic style leans towards the softer side aesthetically, her work has a piercing emotional effect, as if you’re experiencing the moments she’s documented through the lens of memory. Each image becomes a snippet of a full, beautiful life.
