Hi everyone!
I'm Anabelle, the creator of best belle photography which is based in northern Illinois. I've been a practicing photographer since 2019. I'm currently working on getting my BFA in photography at SIUE. I was a self taught photographer from 2019 until 2022 when I decided to switch my degree and start on my photography journey.
I’m an active wildlife, sports, wedding and engagement photographer. Wildlife photography is what got me started with my love for photography. Sitting out in nature for hours just to get the perfect shot is what I call a relaxing day! I also do portraits, seniors, graduations and so much more! Anything you can think of we can create together! I look forward to hearing your ideas and working with you!
In my fine art photography I talk about mental health with a focus on depression, bipolar disorder, and suicide. I also have been working with trauma from childhood abuse and sexual assault. I have a lot of personal connections with all these topics I’m talking about, whether it’s from myself or a close family member. I do this work because mental health is not talked about enough and too many people are fighting the battle alone. I want everyone to know you are not alone and there are other people that are feeling something similar. You have people to talk to, don’t suffer in silence.
