Authentic photography that captures the in-between moments of your elopement, destination, or intimate wedding in Lafayette, Louisiana and beyond. 

Your wedding day is about celebrating your love story, your way.

You’re used to doing things differently. Why should your biggest days be any different?

Maybe you imagine your wedding somewhere far away and beautiful. An intimate elopement with only your closest people. A whole week of adventure and connection. At the courthouse with a really amazing honeymoon.

I’m so with you! Your milestones as a couple should be a celebration of your love story rather than a checklist of traditions and things that just aren’t for you. 

When you choose a photographer, you’re choosing a storyteller. Someone who’s going to document precious and fleeting memories as photos you will keep for a lifetime. 

When you find a photographer who shares your perspective, you get to sit back and savor the love and connection of the day.

Destination Weddings

There’s nothing I love more than a destination wedding.

Capture the essence of your love story with romantic photos that fully capture the spirit of adventure and the essence of place. 

LET’S GO

Intimate Weddings & Elopements

It’s often just a look. A tender gesture. A detail most people wouldn’t see. 

But when it comes to your intimate wedding or elopement, it’s these small moments that make up the whole picture. 

Let’s create a collection of authentic memories – big and small – from your wedding day.

Creative Portrait Shoots

We’re celebrating all of your milestones around here. 

That means creative portraits too. So if you want a photos of your pregnancy or authentic headshots, let’s work together to create a portrait that truly reflect you.

I WANT A PORTRAIT.

Family Shoots

And I’m not talking about the kids-standing-in-a-yard-with-matching-sweaters kind of portrait (although those can be stinkin’ cute, too!)

Look. We all know family life is a ride – one defined by laughter, so much love, tired tears, and sometimes stains on those matching sweaters. When your little ones are all grown up, these are the memories that you’ll want to hang onto.

For your family session, let’s get out and experience something you love to do as a family. Not only will your little crew be more relaxed and candid, but you’ll get photos that document this moment in time, for all that it really is.

I'm Anaice Hackett

And I’m a Lafayette, Louisiana-based elopement, destination, and intimate wedding photographer.

I’ve been doing the opposite of *what everyone else was doing* for as long as I can remember which is exactly why I love photographing weddings that are intimate, fun, or otherwise not-cookie-cutter.

Behind the camera, I’m playful, down-to-earth, and intuitive about how you want to be seen. Plus, I’m just awkward enough to make you feel at ease on your biggest days.

When I’m not working, you’ll still find me with a camera in my hand – only for traveling (hello, destination weddings!) and making a mess in the kitchen.

Anaice is so easy to communicate with, she makes us feel comfortable & beautiful, and most importantly her work is incredible! Everything I can envision, she brings it to life! So thankful & grateful to have chosen her to be our photographer.

Want a glimpse into what working with me will look like? 

Love Stories is where I go behind-the-scenes, feature photos from my most memorable shoots, and share ideas to make your own photoshoot or wedding more authentically yours.

Intimacy over showiness. Authenticity over *what everyone else is doing*.  Celebrating tradition when it feels right and forgetting it when it doesn’t. 

Intimate photography for couples who want to feel like themselves on their biggest days.
