1. Introduction: What's your story?

Hi, I'm Ana Villalpando, owner & main photographer of Ana Studios Photography!

My experience with photography goes back to my high school days! My brother opened his photo studio in California, and I was his assistant.
I photographed my first wedding when I was 17!
Photography is incredible! I LOVE it because it is the only way to stop time! Photos last a lifetime!

Our favorite family photos (shown above) were taken by my bro, Cancun Studios, on Cancun’s beautiful beaches, where he now lives.
Meet our 3 wonderful kids: Anthony- (CSN Business Graduate and ATV racer), William - (5th grader and explorer) & Jasmine - (3rd grader and gymnast)
This year, 2020, David & I will be married 15 years!!! Dave loves anything that has to do with wheels, speed, and dirt! I prefer relaxing, shopping, and eating Doritos (my fave!)
He is my right hand in everything I do, and we are a husband & wife photography team!

In my 20 years of photographing experience, we've been lucky to photograph over 250 weddings!

3. How would you describe your photography style?

Our photography style is a mix of traditional, romantic, and candid photography!

4. How well in advance should couples book their wedding photographer?

Usually, couples should book their wedding photographer 6 months in advance, but as the Wedding Capital of the World, Las Vegas has a bit of a different timeline!

5. What are the different packages that you offer and which one is your most popular package?

Our packages range from small hourly packages to Luxurious packages. Our most popular package is our Luxury Package, which includes coverage by two photographers, all wedding images, an enlargement, and a beautiful custom creations album!

6. Are you the wedding photographer who will be shooting on the wedding day? Who else is there in your team?

Yes! I am the lead wedding photographer for our couples, or my husband, Dave, who is also part of Ana Studios!

7. Do you charge a travel fee? For what distance? What does that cover?

We do travel for weddings! Travel fees are applied for weddings outside of Las Vegas depending on the destination. Please contact us for more details!

8. Are albums or prints included in your packages?

Albums and prints are included in our Luxury packages. All packages can be customized to include albums, prints, enlargements depending on our couples' needs!

9. How long after the wedding will the couple receive the images? How will they be delivered?

A few days after the wedding, our couples will receive a sneak peek! 4-6 weeks after their BIG day, they will receive a link with all of their images!

10. What is your cancellation and/or refund policy?

Deposits/Retainer fees are non-refundable, since we reserve their day in advance.
