Sarah Annay
Hi! I was born in Burlington, Vermont and started my photography business in St. Augustine, Florida in 2014. Currently, I am based in Vermont AND Florida— the best of both worlds. I do not charge travel fees for these two locations, but you can send me anywhere. I also shoot annual association meetings and conferences worldwide.
I have my BA in Journalism and an MA in International Affairs from The New School in NYC. I teach design and visual storytelling at The University of Vermont. Through photography, communication design and data visualization, I am merging my talents to make this world a more equitable place.
Check out my annual project Vision for Empowerment, a photography workshop that provides art therapy and photography training to women and girls in Kolkata, India.
On Photography: My style is a mix of creative portraiture and timeless photojournalism. I do not heavily edit my photographs. I will not put you in a dozen awkward poses, as long as you don't send me a Pinterest board with every shot you want. I want your images to reflect who you are. That is what's most important. Whether it is shooting a wedding, a national association meeting, an editorial spread, or imagery for a global nonprofit, I am here to keep you at ease.
When I am not photographing or teaching, I am hiking in Vermont, growing food, cuddling with our kitty Oliver, and catching up on the latest Netflix series.
Photography and storytelling is my gift to share with the world. Capturing people's best—and authentic moments— is what I do.
