Hi! My name is Holly. I used to be a project manager and technical writer, then I had my sweet Anna, a little girl with multiple special needs. That was 2001 and in the jumble of doctor's appointments and therapy sessions, ARD meetings and IEP goals, I've discovered photography, digital art, and blogging ~ avenues in which to express and create the magical side of life... one of connections, relationships, and beauty. My search for tranquility is often elusive but the journey is very rewarding.

You can find me at Holly Anissa where I primarily share my personal projects and parenting stories. Photography is a pure outlet for me, merging my technical side with my artistic side. I love finding beauty in the details. Thanks for stopping by my stream!

I shoot with a Nikon D750 and in my camera bag, I have:

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 ART

Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art

Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D

Nikkor 85mm f/1.8G

Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G macro

Speedlite SB-600

I edit with ACR and Photoshop CS6.

These are personal, family photographs and the photographs of my clients. Please do not use them for any purpose without my permission. Thank you!
