✨🎉 IT’S OFFICIALLY MY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION! 🎉✨

TEN years. 🥹🤍

Ten years of weddings, babies, families, milestones, laughter, friendships, and memories. What started as a dream has become something I could have never imagined, and I am so incredibly thankful for every person who has trusted me with their most precious moments over the last decade. You guys have no idea how much this means to me!!! 🥲

To celebrate 10 years of Carissa Anthony Photography, I’m bringing back a little throwback from the early days… 🎉

✨ $50 Mini Session Gift Certificates! ✨

I haven’t offered minis at this price since I first started doing photography, and I have just 3 available!

These certificates can be used for a standard mini session (10-15 minutes at the location of your choice and results in 7+ images in a private digital gallery with download and printing rights, non-refundable) and make a great way to lock in a session. Once they’re gone, they’re gone! Message to grab one!🤍

But we’re just getting started…

🎁 Beginning Monday, I’ll be kicking off a week of surprises with giveaways, prizes, favorite memories from the last 10 years, and a few extra fun things I can’t wait to share with you all! 🥰

Thank you for supporting this dream for the last decade. Whether you’ve been with me since the beginning or just recently found my page, I appreciate each and every one of you more than you’ll ever know. 🫶

✨ Here’s to 10 years—and to celebrating with all of you! ✨

Some of my favorite images come from sessions where kids forget they’re being photographed—and that’s exactly the goal here.

This lemonade stand setup creates a playful activity that keeps little ones engaged while giving us beautiful, timeless summer images. No pressure. No forced smiles. Just a fun summer experience that happens to result in gorgeous photos. Message to reserve! 🤍

To celebrate Mother’s Day, I wanted to create something meaningful for the moms who are always behind the camera.

For a limited time, I’m offering a $75 Motherhood Mini Session Pass that can be used toward future mini sessions through 2026.

These passes may be used for:
• mommy & me
• floral minis
• beach minis
• fall minis
• seasonal or other themed minis

Whether you use it for yourself, your babies, or your family later this year, these are flexible and special.

As an added bonus, pass holders will also receive priority booking access for future mini sessions.

There are a limited number of these passes (3), and once they’re gone, they’re gone. 🤍

Message to claim!

I’m watching rain/wind in tomorrow’s forecast. If you have a mini scheduled tomorrow, I will reach out in the morning with more information! 😊
