Anna offers a tailored and bespoke wedding photography service. Anna’s approach to photographing weddings is as a quiet and non-obtrusive observer resulting in beautiful documentary-style images that tell the story of the wedding day but crucially leave both bride and groom completely free to enjoy their day with their family and friends.
The aim of Anna’s children & family photography is to capture stunning but natural images of children and children with their parents that reflect their true individuality at that moment in their childhood, and to produce a treasured record that will bring pleasure in their parent’s lifetime, theirs, and for the generations to come.

Anna qualified in Professional Photographic Practice at the London College of Printing in 2002, and set up Anna McCarthy Photography. Since then she has continued to learn and hone her skills as a photographer through numerous commissions across the board photographing people. Her work has been showcased in many of the major newspapers and magazines, books and in the trade over the years.
For Anna the measure of a good portrait, or any photograph involving people, lies not just in its surface aesthetics, any honed technique with the camera, or new way of observing or capturing, but crucially in the faithfulness and depth of the emotion portrayed. All these things are at the forefront of her mind when she observing people and she is happiest when they all come together in an image.
