Travis and his band were absolutely phenomenal to work with for our wedding. The music was great; he learned our first dance song perfectly; the selection of music meant there was something for everyone; and he even had tarps to put up to keep the music going as the rain came down. Absolutely professional and a joy to work with. Plus, a bunch of my musician friends from around town recommended Travis and said he's fun to play with. You'll think so too. Thanks, Travis!

Hi! My name is Natalie and first I’d like to say congratulations on your engagement! This is such an exciting time and I’m thankful for your consideration to work with you on your wedding day! I’ve always loved hair and makeup but being able to share in your big day is my passion! I believe a bride should look like her most beautiful self on her wedding day with an extra little flair! I look forward to hearing your ideas and creating your perfect curated wedding look for you and your bridal party!

Awarded Best of Zola
Natalie is truly an amazing artist and person. I was so impressed when talking with her about her background in the hair industry. She told me that she could do whatever style I wanted, and she was absolutely right! Going into it, I had no clue how I wanted to do my hair. She was so great with going back and forth leading up to the trial to help me settle on a few styles. Then at the trial she worked with me to try a few different options. I ended up doing a second trial with her to perfect the look. On the wedding day, she absolutely nailed it! One of my biggest things was curl style, and she got the curls perfectly! She also did such an amazing job with my mom's hair, which made me so happy seeing how beautiful my mom felt with it. My dad said that was the best he's seen her hair in 30 years. Not only is Natalie extremely skilled, but she is also a great person. She is so humble despite her impressive background. She is also an incredible person and felt more like a friend by the end of this. We love her so much and recommend anyone getting hair done to go to her!!

We craft timeless memories in our photos and videos. My background in Psychology helps me capture the essence of your special moments. We're dedicated to authentically telling your story through our lenses.

I recently hired Dennis to capture my surprise/secret proposal, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish it was an incredible day. Dennis is incredibly friendly, making me and my fiancé feel completely at ease, especially despite my nerves during the big moment. His professionalism was top-notch, as he knew exactly when and where to be without ever being intrusive, which is a tricky balance to strike during such a private and emotional event. What really stood out was his sense of humor. He kept things light and fun, which helped calm my jitters and made the whole experience enjoyable rather than stressful. Plus, that quick wit he has is amazing, and seeing him pretend to be on a phone call as we walked up to the spot had me chuckling even as I was about to pop the question! The photos turned out absolutely stunning. They are natural, candid, and full of emotion. I’m so grateful for his ability to capture such a personal moment so beautifully and discreetly. If you’re looking for a photographer who’s friendly, professional, and has a great sense of humor, Dennis is absolutely without a shadow of a doubt your guy!

Where do we even begin? Taylor, our DJ, didn't just meet our expectations, he absolutely obliterated them! He flew all the way from Charleston to Cabo for our wedding, and even when his nearest airport was shut down due to a snowstorm, he found a way to get to us. That level of dedication is simply unmatched. But it wasn't just his commitment that blew us away. From the moment he started, the energy was electric. Taylor's emcee skills are top-tier. He was hilarious, engaging, and kept the party going all night long. He even hosted an epic twerk-off contest, letting us, the bride and groom, crown the winners – it was a highlight of the night! What truly sets Taylor apart is his ability to handle anything that came his way with grace and positivity. Weddings are unpredictable, and Taylor navigated every unforeseen moment with a smile and a solution. He seamlessly managed the flow of the evening, ensuring everything ran smoothly and the dance floor was always packed. More than just a DJ, Taylor has become a dear friend.

To say Shannon is a pleasure to work with is an understatement. She was always easy to talk with and kept in touch the months leading up to my wedding. The day before the wedding she was proactive and met with me to scope out the venue, noting all of the places that was important to us but more importantly, was very knowledgeable on what locations would work best for views and lighting. On the day of the wedding her expertise truly showed! Shannon was very professional but also down to earth and kept the day fun! She helped us with poses as the groom & I weren’t sure what we needed to do and they turned out perfect! After the wedding, she worked quickly to get all of our beautiful pictures back in a very timely manner! Shannon gave us pictures that will last a lifetime, she is an amazingly talented individual and the work she produces is truly remarkable!

From the moment Alissa and I connected I knew she was going to be a great fit for us. She was very flexible as far as booking our engagement shoot and went above and beyond to get us all the photos we wanted, we even hung out a bit after and had a drink, she's fun!! Come wedding day I was having some issues with another vendor and Alissa was more than willing to step in and help in any way she could. Both my husband and I have very large families so when it came time for family photos she did a great job at making sure we got what we needed and moved on so that we can enjoy our time and not spend hours corralling family to get photos done. We ended up needing her to stay longer to capture our exit and she was more than willing to add more time.

Sara was amazing for my wedding! We had a fun theme that many vendors didn't even want to work with, but Sara was there for it! Our wedding had a dress code of footie-pajamas and a really casual, fun setting. Picture lights out with glow stick centerpieces with board games on each table and colorful party lights while everyone is wearing different footies. So much fun! Sara even showed up in her footie pajamas and didn't kill me when I told her I wanted to pop confetti for our last song of the night.

Lindsay was by far the best vendor of our whole wedding. She made the day so enjoyable and stress-free with her amazing energy and talent. Aside from being fabulous at her job, she is so thoughtful and lovely. As a bride and groom who were extremely camera shy, she made us feel totally comfortable the entire time and the photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined. We still keep in touch with her and can’t recommend her enough! Lindsay is the absolute best all around.

Welcome to Franzi Annika Photography, where elegance meets the artistry of visual storytelling. We are Franzi and Martin – a husband-wife duo. While our European roots shape our style, our dedication to the art of photography is what guides us. Through our in-the-moment, meticulous focus on the finer details, we create a collection of genuine narratives preserved on film. These photographs will continue to reflect the emotional depth of your celebration for generations to come.

You won’t find photographers more skilled or personable than Franzi and Martin! They photographed our engagement in Charleston, SC, rehearsal dinner and wedding in Boston, MA. We cannot recommend them highly enough for your next engagement session, wedding, or event! Working with them was a dream and we feel so lucky to have met them. First, if you took all the photography away, Franzi and Martin will enhance your wedding day just by being a part of it. They are warm, funny and fit right in with the gals/guys and families. They also got along and coordinated so well with our venue, floral designer and planner - everyone loved working with them. We all felt so comfortable around them and this is reflected in the natural, beautiful photos. They are also incredibly professional, prepared and organized. The morning of the wedding, they had already scouted and planned all of the locations for the first look, family and bridal party photos, and husband/wife shots. We didn’t have to do or think about a thing in terms of photos the entire day - we just followed their lead! During the ceremony and reception, they were so subtle in taking their photos. We were able to enjoy the day without it feeling like a photoshoot. The photos were simply stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on how unique and personal our photos are. Most importantly, they feel like us, because Franzi and Martin got to know us throughout this process. We had such a hard time putting together an album because we had too many favorites to choose from! One of the guiding values for choosing our wedding vendors was to find true artists who are passionate about their craft and then trust them to work their magic. Franzi and Martin are just that - artists. We wanted them to have complete creative control and freedom and would encourage everyone who works with them to do the same - your photos will be gorgeous, and your wedding day memories will be made better because Franzi and Martin were there.
