Background
Annette captures your business, events and portraits in a unique way, then applies artistic flair and technical expertise to bring out the your brand and personality, along with the emotion and message of the moment. As a former software engineer out of University of Virginia who later worked with cutting edge NASA supercomputers, Annette dove into a male-dominated field full of intimidation and challenges with no hesitation. This strength of character, love of people, and passion for music soar through her photography.
