your favorite virgos
Annie & Khang
Hi friends! We're Annie and Khang. Wow, are you actually going to read this? You must be a virgo too.
In 2013, we met during senior year of high school. Fast forward to college, we were both at CSUF, majoring in Communication Studies-- so now we know how to talk... and communicate... and stuff...
Tied the knot in July 2020! Got married in a church parking lot at the height of the pandemic (story for another day). Since then, we've both pursued careers in education!
We're teachers!
- of course we're going to give clear instructions
- of course we'll meet our deadlines
- of course we might use our teacher voice
- of course we'll give you lots of praise and positive words of affirmation
- of course we'll adapt if nothing goes according to plan
Outside of work, you'll find us in 1 of 3 places:
- With our fur baby, friends, or family
- Outdoors, doing outdoorsy things
- Rotting on the couch like a potato (most likely)
We've always enjoyed sharing our own story through photos. From our high school days to our wedding day, we're grateful to have photos that we can look back on from every step of our journey together.
Whether you're celebrating love, milestones, or simply the joy of being alive, we're here to help you tell your story through our lens. Wow, you seriously read the whole thing? You deserve a cookie, or 12.
Our Style
Our photography goal is to make you feel like your life is a movie and you are the main character. Call it what you want-- storytelling, journalistic, candid, cinematic. Ultimately, we want your true authentic self to be reflected in your photos.
In-between moments are our personal favorites. You know, the ones that often get overlooked—the smiles before kisses, the chaos of kids jumping around and playing, the genuine laughter once we break through the initial awkwardness. These are the moments that truly matter.
While we will have a balance of posed portraits & candids, most of our session will consist of natural movement, play, affection, maybe a little chaos or tantrums from the kids, but most of all-- fun. We prioritize authenticity over perfection. If you want a gallery full of perfectly posed and staged images, we might not be the right photographers for you!

Annie Tran
Hi! My name is Annie :)
Many of you might have connected with me from social media back when I posted makeup content. I spent a lot of time in front of the camera, modeling for brands and shooting campaigns. Currently, I am a 12th grade English teacher. I love being in the classroom, but my passion for art has never gone away. No matter what era I'm in, I thrive on creativity and collaboration-- which brings me to my love for photography. As much as I loved being in front of the camera, I found even more fulfillment behind it.

Hi! I'm Khang :) *the H is silent in my name*
Life took a wild turn for me when I found out I had a rare autoimmune condition called ankylosing spondylitis. This was hard to accept because volleyball was a big part of my life. I was a coach for 6 years, and I've played for over 10. Now that I am a happier and healthier version of me, I'm excited to help you capture the moments of joy in your lives. I am a former Instagram Boyfriend, promoted to professional Instagram Husband, with years of training--and trust me, I had a great teacher.
