The first half doesn't define you. The second half does.

 

 

Welcome to mine.

 

Meet the Photographer (she/her)

Hey, my name is Anna Higham.

Since 2014, I worked as a breast surgical oncologist, empowering women through their journeys with breast cancer treatment. It was deeply meaningful work that shaped who I am. But after three years of undergoing spine surgery after spine surgery, in 2025, I knew it was time to make big changes in the second half of my career. I put down the scalpel and picked up a camera.


I want to continue empowering girls, women, and anyone who’s ever felt unseen — capturing their strength, beauty, and spirit in every frame. Through the lens of my camera, photography has become more than a creative outlet; it’s a way to help people truly see themselves at their strongest, most beautiful, and most genuine.


From the grit of an athlete mid-game, to the confidence radiating in a senior portrait, to the quiet power of an unguarded moment, my goal is always the same: to reflect back their worth, their truth, and the undeniable spark of their spirit. I want every girl to walk away knowing she is powerful, capable, and unforgettable.


Now, you’ll most often find me courtside, camera in hand, capturing my two basketball-loving daughters in action. It’s a world away from the operating room, yet still rooted in the same principles: focus, precision, and heart.


Here’s to fresh starts, unexpected turns, finding power and beauty in the shift, and to making every second half count.
