Hi, I am EMILY ANN

Let's get to know each other

brand identity portrait

Ninety Four Co was created from a love story — a quiet reminder to me that the most meaningful things in life are rooted in connection, memory, and feeling. Through photography and design, I aim to create work that feels timeless, refined, and deeply personal. I’m drawn to natural light, neutral tones, warm shadows, and film-inspired color, creating imagery that feels soft, honest, and elevated. I am currently pursuing a degree in Communication Design at the College for Creative Studies, where I study visual storytelling, branding, and photography with a focus on thoughtful concept development and intentional design. My work is centered around authenticity — creating imagery and visual experiences that preserve emotion, beauty, and presence in a way that lasts beyond a moment.


MY STORY


Ninety Four Co is rooted in something that has been with me for as long as I can remember—I have been taking photos my entire life, long before I ever knew it would become my work. What started as a natural instinct to document people, places, and fleeting moments slowly became a deeper passion for storytelling through imagery. I’ve always been drawn to the way a photograph can hold emotion without words, preserving not just how something looked, but how it felt.


At the center of my work is a love for connection and story. Ninety Four Co was named after a love story that holds personal meaning to me, and that same sentiment carries into everything I create. I believe photography is most powerful when it feels honest—when it reflects real emotion, real presence, and the quiet in-between moments that often go unnoticed. My approach is intentional, guided by light, feeling, and the natural flow of each experience, allowing stories to unfold rather than be forced.


I am based locally in St. Clair MI, but I am always open to travel because I believe meaningful stories are not confined to one place. Whether I am photographing somewhere familiar or somewhere new, I am drawn to environments that enhance the feeling of a moment. My work continues to evolve through both lived experience and my studies in Communication Design and Photography at the College for Creative Studies , where I explore how visual storytelling can be both deeply personal and thoughtfully crafted. At its core, Ninety Four Co is simply this: a lifelong way of seeing the world, shaped by emotion, light, and story.

“OWNING OUR STORY AND LOVING OURSELVES THROUGH THAT PROCESS IS THE BRAVEST THING WE’LL EVER DO.”

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do you travel for destination weddings?

Yes — I absolutely travel for weddings! I love documenting celebrations in meaningful locations and am always open to traveling for your day. Weddings within 10 miles are included, and locations beyond that distance may require a small travel fee depending on the destination.

Yes — I’m happy to help plan your engagement session. From choosing a location and time of day to styling guidance and creating a mood that feels authentic to your relationship, I want the experience to feel natural, intentional, and personal to you both!

3. What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

I understand that unexpected situations can happen. Sessions may be rescheduled with advance notice, and I will always do my best to accommodate a new date. Retainers are non-refundable, as they secure your session or wedding date, but they may be transferred toward a rescheduled session when possible. See my full terms and conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

5. DO YOU HELP POSE US FOR OUR SESSION?

Yes — I provide gentle direction throughout the entire session. My approach to posing is very natural and movement-based, so nothing ever feels stiff or overly staged. I focus on creating a comfortable space where you can interact naturally, while I guide you into poses and moments that feel authentic, flattering, and true to you.

6. Can I request specific poses or shots?

Yes — you’re always welcome to share any specific ideas, poses, or shots you have in mind. I love when clients bring inspiration, and I’ll thoughtfully incorporate those moments into your session while still guiding the overall flow to ensure everything feels natural, cohesive, and true to my photography style.

7. Can we meet before the session?

Absolutely — I always encourage meeting before your session, especially for weddings. Building a genuine connection beforehand helps create a more comfortable and natural experience, allowing me to better understand your vision, personalities, and the moments that matter most to you.


8. WHAT IS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE?

My photography style is rooted in a timeless, film-inspired aesthetic with a focus on natural light, soft tones, and honest emotion. I aim to create imagery that feels warm, refined, and deeply intentional, blending subtle direction with authentic, unposed moments. My work is centered around storytelling—capturing connection, presence, and feeling in a way that feels both elevated and true to real life.
