About Me
I am Corey Ann and I have been running Corey Ann Photography since 2007. I mainly focus on wedding, corporate and family portrait photography. Currently I've photographed over 500 weddings... which is a number that is bananas to me!
My photography shooting style is a photojournalistic with what I call "a dash of Mom." What does that mean? That means that while I'm going to focus on all the moments as they happen during your session - the hugs, the cuddles, the kisses - I'm also going to make you pause and smile at the camera a few times. Moms get mad when there's not a 'nice photo' and while the moments are what take your breath away, the standard smiles never go out of style.
To go along with my method of working a session my editing style is also what I'd call classic or timeless. While the fashion trends will always somewhat date photos, I never want your images to be edited in a style that screams the year they were taken. I have images on this website I took over 10 years ago and I bet you can't guess which ones they are! That's the same feel I want for the images I capture for you. I also want the colors to represent the day and the look you had and for the blue sky to be blue and the green grass to be green!
As for who I am - well I'm a pretty chill and laid back human with slightly nerdy tendencies. I am an avid reader and read upwards of 100 books a year, rarely am I without my Kindle by my side. I could write a novel just about how much I adore the invention of the eBook! I only allow myself the term slightly nerdy because while I'm not really into comics (more power to those that are!) I do have some fandoms that I go all in on.
I have four+ cats that I adore with my whole heart. Monkey is a grey and white cat who came to us when a friend's uncle found him in a barn, Dobby the House Cat who came into our lives at the right time thanks to our amazing vet For Paws, Weasley who showed up on our doorstep as a feral cat and ended up inside as a permanent part of the clan and our newest cat Tortie who was another feral who showed up pregnant and we took her in after getting her kittens rehomed. Then there's Hank. He's the neighbor's cat who moved himself in after they rudely got a dog he didn't approve of. He still, rarely, goes home but for now he's our bonus cat.
My husband and I share the house that I grew up in that my mother also grew up in. It's fun to live with neighbors who have literally not only known you your entire life but your parent as well!
I love to travel when I get the chance but I also love staying home and curling up on the couch with my cats and a good book. I am based in North Canton but go wherever the wind takes me for my clients.
I also firmly believe that a day without laughter is a sad day indeed and Northeast Ohio needs a darn IKEA already.
