Meet the Photographer: Monika Anderson Photography

"I can't say enough good things about Monika and her husband (second shooter). They were so great to work with. Monika is so talented and passionate about what she does, she did our engagement and wedding pictures and we couldn't be happier with them. We'll definitely be using her services in the future and are so glad we found her."

Tell us a little more about your business. 

"I've been taking photographs since I can remember, so it was only natural for me to sign up for film and digital photo classes at my art college. Soon after I started to capture important lifetime moments for family and friends. For me it's not just about taking pretty pictures. It is much more than that. A photograph can bring back the memory of the day it was taken on. It can bring back the atmosphere, the emotion. That's why I love photography."

Why should a bride choose you? What sets you apart from other photographers?

"I work as a team with my husband. We know exactly what each part of the wedding day requires, so even the most challenging situations don't throw us off. We absolutely love to deliver breathtaking, creative images, and we go above and beyond for our clients, who often become our friends.  And you can be sure, that we always bring a positive attitude, fun and laughter. "
 

Is there any special news you would like to share?

"We've been very fortunate to work with the most amazing couples so far!! We have been featured on the blog of WeddingDay Magazine, and we regularly participate in many photography contests. Our motto is never stop learning and thrive to be better."

What inspires you as a photographer?

"Everywhere I go I keep my eyes open and try to suck up the atmosphere of the place, the energy of the people, the overall vibe. Sometimes it's the little things hidden to others, that inspire me the most. "
 

What do you love most about photographing weddings?

"Wedding photography is a very special job to me. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Being able to capture the little stories of the day that become the family heirloom is an absolutely amazing feeling."
