Welcome To My World!
Meet Franklin, TN Photographer at Brown Bunny Photography
Hello! I'm Anne Willingham, the owner-photographer behind Brown Bunny Photography. We specialize in creating beautiful, personalized heirloom images of newborns and children up to the teen years that our clients will treasure for generations.
I'm an Alabama native and moved to Nashville after earning my Bachelor of Interior Design from the Auburn University School of Architecture and a Master of Fine Arts in scenic and lighting design from the University of Alabama.
I have designed for numerous area theater companies including Nashville Shakespeare Festival, Vanderbilt Opera Theater, and the Tennessee Performing Arts Center. I have taught an assortment of lighting and technical classes as an adjunct instructor for Lipscomb University and Belmont University, as well as designing for the theatre program at Montgomery Bell Academy.
As a water enthusiast, I have taught swim lessons every summer for nearly 35 years and coached swim teams in Birmingham and Franklin. I love teaching kids to swim, especially preschoolers. It's such a joy to watch little kids become smart and brave and proud of their accomplishments.
Why photography?
Photography blends all of my abilities and passions into one big, happy, creative project. I love the way light affects the body and the artistic aspects of composition, framing, and editing. Then there are the kids! I love being silly and goofy with your children. My photo sessions are fun for all of us.
Sessions are like small theatrical productions. What story are we telling about your kids? Figuring out which presentations will enhance your home and life uses my interior design background. I want to fill your home with beautiful new artwork that reflects your precious memories. Plus, photography is fun!
Thank you for your interest. I'd love to chat with you and perhaps meet over coffee to talk about crafting your first session!
