I was born and raised in a small country, Estonia. From an early age I was exposed to a cultural life, singing in choirs and ballroom dancing. At age 7, I learned knitting and sewing from my parents. By the time I was in my teens, I was sewing most of the clothes I wore. After high school I was approached by a modeling agency and I started modeling. It was a stepping stone into the fashion industry and soon opportunities opened up for me to live, work and study in other countries, until my debut in the United States.

​

After graduating from college in 2007, I founded Anné Phillips Photography, combining my expertise in modeling and passion for fashion, art, beauty, and design.

​

I've traveled the world photographing models and runways, including Mercedes Benz Fashion Week and Caribbean Fashion Week. I've also supported my hometown of Tampa, Florida, by serving ten consecutive years as Fashion Week Tampa Bay’s lead photographer. My work has been published in both local and international magazines.

​

When I work in photo sessions, I always envision that these images would appear in magazines. Those who worked with me say that I'm professional, friendly, an expert in placement and lighting, and an outside-the-box thinker. Yet, I like to describe myself as a visionary and a problem solver. Your idea becomes the vision through the lens of my camera.

​

Now that you've read a little about me, I'd love to hear from you.

​

Let's talk and together we'll bring your ideas to life.
