“We had the best experience shooting our engagement session with Elena. She made sure that we were comfortable and gave us confidence through teaching us how to pose. Her photos from the session captured the best light and were beautiful. Elena was a joy to work with and was very communicative throughout the process from giving tips, to being receptive to our ideas, and going the extra mile to find the perfect location.”

I am a Mama to two red headed blue eyed babies and wife to a tender hearted bearded mountain man. Fox & Owl is my love story with that man and it's a small whisper of my deep + intimate relationship with the natural world. I'm a fiery woman as a Leo sun and Sag moon + rising. I cuss a lot and I break out into a terrible British accent when I'm excited - especially when I'm shooting with my clients. I love dark humor and I get tickled at the smallest things. You can find me at home with my fam and my dogs, deep in the woods howling at the moon, around a fire with an endless glass of Scotch, or enjoying a cuppa in my favorite coffee shop.

I can't wait to meet you! From getting to know you, documenting important moments, to the delivery of your images, I’m all in. I focus on real emotion, true color and editing free from industry trends to ensure you will love your images decades from now. A fun third wheel, I document what the day feels like and your true personalities. Couples say they love how calm I am under pressure, I instinctively know where to be at all times, how to capture humanity empathetically and that it's clear I love what I do. l'm excited for you to relive all the hilarious, emotional and behind the scenes moments through your photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
“My partner and I worked really hard to bring together wedding vendors that fit with our intentions for a personal and intimate wedding. Leah was an absolute perfect fit!! Relaxed, friendly, and kind, Leah brought much needed peacefulness to the day and captured beautiful moments that I will cherish forever. I knew I wanted documentary-style photographer because I didn't want to spend my wedding day shuffling around for the perfect shot. I wanted someone to be a fly on the wall, taking photos that represented the true emotion and energy of the ceremony and celebration. When we met with Leah, she was genuinely interested in getting to know Sam and I as a couple and individually. We felt like we were collaborators, not just clients. When WNC was affected by Helene, Leah was the only vendor we were able to communicate with and so she became our boots-on-the-ground, giving us information and helping us to make the decision to postpone our wedding a year. 364 days later, Leah arrived onsite and immediately brought a calming energy: sweeping through family photos, knowing there was a bit of tension; snapping a quick photo and then flitting away for my partner and I to have some alone time; and deftly navigating the many folks that approached her for group photos during the reception. Our photos were delivered via email on Christmas Eve, perfect timing to peruse through with visiting family. The images were everything I wanted and more. Leah's talent is astounding and I'm so glad that she was part of our day.”

My work is defined by the intersection of European art influence and American classics. I offer a highly intentional, elevated approach to wedding photography — one that prioritizes both aesthetic excellence and emotion. With a bilingual background and experience working with international clientele, I easily find the right approach to my clients needs. Through a balance of intuitive direction and unobtrusive observation, I capture both the grandeur and the quiet, fleeting moments that others often miss. The result is a body of work that feels timeless, sophisticated, and deeply personal.

“Hiring Anastasia was one of the best decisions we made for a wedding. She has photographed so many friends of ours and came highly recommended by them, so I already knew she would be amazing. From the sneak peaks, I was already blown away. The gallery felt so natural, smooth and emotional. We instantly fell in love with it. She’s very talented, but she is also an amazing person. She would calm me down, but at the same time make me positive about everything even little details that were beyond our control. I was amazed by her professional and creative view. She definitely sees something that we don’t see. We are so grateful she was part of our wedding and would recommend her to anyone, especially if you are considering a destination wedding in Sevierville and Gatlinburg she truly made our experience unforgettable.

Connection is the key to meaningful photographs and an experience that you'll remember for a lifetime. I will laugh with you, cry with you, and photograph your wedding day as if it's my own. You're not seen as just a client, you're a friend (and I'm your new favorite third wheel!). I limit my bookings to 15 weddings per year, so I can give each couple my full attention and the best experience possible. Filling my calendar with back to back weddings is not my goal...I want to have the time to leave you with the memory of a day well-spent laughing, exploring, soaking up the sun (or rain) and breathing in the moment - simply because we can!

“As a wedding planner in the Florida Keys, I’ve been lucky enough to work with Margeaux on multiple occasions. Her work is always spectacular…if you want gorgeous sunset photos at your wedding, she’s your girl! Margeaux goes above and beyond for our clients…I’ve even seen her get in the water just to get that perfect angle! I highly recommend working with her!”
