i'm an austin, Tx newborn & maternity photographer

I’m Anna Monette, a proud Austin native and professional maternity photographer specializing in newborn, family, cake smash, and pregnancy photoshoots.

My photography journey began at age 19 during my modeling career, where I discovered a passion for being behind the camera. After purchasing my first Nikon, I explored various photography styles before falling in love with maternity and newborn photography—it was like a lightning bolt struck, and I knew this was my true calling! My experience in front of the camera helps me guide clients into natural, beautiful poses while keeping each session relaxed and fun. In 2018, I launched my LLC to serve families throughout Austin and the surrounding areas with heartfelt, timeless portraits.

When I’m not capturing special moments, I love spending time near, in, or on any body of water, savoring delicious Indian cuisine, and playing “Settlers of Catan” with my family (yes, I’m a bit of a nerd!). My husband and I are also proud cat lovers, and I feel incredibly fortunate to live and work in this vibrant city doing what I love.
