Meet your new best friend,
Hi I'm Carrie

and these are a few of my favorite things
Okay yes, I talk about photography a lot… but there are a few other things that bring me just as much joy.
Volleyball is a very close second. I’ve played indoors, outdoors, in the rain, and in that aggressively humid Ohio heat that makes you question your life choices.
​
When I'm not traveling the world with my best friends I'm out and about with a camera in one hand or an iced matcha in the other. But if I'm honest, some of my favorite quiet moments are at home with my pup, Amara, my built-in best friend and unofficial editing partner.
​
I’m also a full-blown movie nerd and I can't stress the term, nerd, enough. I listen to film scores on a daily basis (yes, just for fun). What can I say? I’m deeply in love with storytelling in every form. If you’ve ever seen my arm, you already know I have a soft spot for Studio Ghibli movies-- the whimsy, the emotion, the quiet magic of such profound stories, it's truly chef’s kiss.
​
And if I’m watching a movie? There’s a 90% chance I've probably got a plate of french fries in hand followed by a sweet treat. So that’s the highlight reel of Carrie O’Brien, the photographer, volleyball enthusiast, movie romanticizing nerd, dog mom, and professional appreciator of a good story.
​
The rest you’ll just have to learn along the way.
The bigger the dream, the more important the team

But who are Anne & Katie?
Let's meet them!
Anne Hampton
Katie McConnell
Hi! I'm Anne and I love to capture all types of moments from weddings & engagements to maternity, senior photos and so much more!
I like to take a natural, photojournalistic approach to photography and I strive to make every person feel comfortable and confident! Outside of photography, I am a huge bookworm and love star trek! I also enjoy CrossFit and playing with my fur babies.
​
Carrie and I met each other when I was looking for a wedding photographer. I asked Carrie to chat on a phone call to go over some questions and we immediately hit it off talking about how much we both love photography! Carrie started mentoring me shortly after, and the rest is history!
Hi friends!
​
My name is Katie McConnell. I am a Westerville native, born and raised. I have been a coach, a teacher, and have recently followed my passion for photography. When I’m not taking photos of my husband or dog, I love capturing moments while I travel!
Chances are if you see me out, you may find me at the hardware store for whatever hobby strikes my mind at the time!
​
I have known Carrie a little over four years now and what started off as a mutual love of photography quickly blossomed into friendship. She has taught me everything there is to know about being a photographer and I couldn’t have been paired with a better role model.
