Film and Digital wedding and family photographer
Hi! I'm Anna!
Hi, I'm Anna Bye! I'm based in Minneapolis, Minnesota and spend my time helping people remember their most important days.
I've helped couples celebrate over 200 weddings, over the course of more than a decade. I've learned how to both capture the most important parts of your day, while also helping you feel fully yourself. I also love helping people capture the essence of their families in each season of life. From newborn snuggles to toddler cheesy smiles to hard-won teenager smiles, I see each one as an important part of your family's history.
Your experience is the most important piece to me, and I will work tirelessly to assure that you have tangible memories you can treasure forever.
On wedding days, you'll see me with too many cameras around my neck, rolls of film in my pocket, and a bow in my hair.
When I'm not photographing, I'm perfecting my latest baking recipe or playing around in my flower garden. At the end of the day, you'll find me cuddled on the couch with my husband Matt, our son, and our golden retrievers, Gus and Juniper.
The journey of The Byes Photo began with me, Anna, alongside my husband Matt, capturing every wedding together. As our family grew, Matt shifted his focus to the business side, channeling his passion into landscape and art photography. Now, I lead the charge, photographing weddings, families, and brands.
I travel all over the country to capture love stories. Armed with a degree in photojournalism, my initial aspiration was to work in newsrooms and magazines. However, after living that life, I realized my true calling lay in capturing people on their happiest days.
I'm all about those fleeting moments and tender interactions—a gentle brush of hands, a shared smile. Each image I capture is a narrative thread woven into your story. For me, beams of light signify endless possibilities, and every subtle movement presents an opportunity to showcase your unique love.
My mission is to transform your cherished memories into timeless works of art.
The Beginning of the Byes Photo
My life would be so boring without these two goofballs. Gus is the calm, old man and Juniper is the snuggle bug puppy!

While we love our home, seeing new things and experiencing new places makes us feel alive. You can now purchase prints from our travels!

When we purchased our first house, we had to make sure we could fit all of our friends for dinner and game nights!

Of all the things to add to a good vanilla ice cream, pretzels and chocolate chips are on the top of my list.
