Testimonials
“When Annie Cooper is at a show with her camera, we can always count on quality, action-packed photos. Shooting a live band requires a great eye, and the ability to know what is about to happen. These are skills Annie has that set her apart from others. They can’t be taught. We are very lucky to have her in our circle as a great friend, and a great photographer!”

“Annie is such a joy to work with. They say the photograph says a thousand words. But it’s the shot that makes the photograph worth a thousand words. She has “the eye” for what makes a good picture. Her personality — I can’t even say enough about that! Love that lady!”
Harry Cortez Young ~ Precious Time — Pat Benatar Tribute
“Our band was referred to Annie Cooper Photography from some trusted friends in the business. We needed to update our promotional photos that included our current lineup. The negotiation process was simple and we found Annie to be very accommodating. Her prices were very fair and her team came to a couple of our concerts and captured some great photos of our live shows. We currently use Annie's photos in all our 2022 advertising and promotion.”
Voyager ~ A Tribute to the Music of Journey
“Annie has made us look great in every shot she takes. I can't stress enough to the up-and-coming artist how important it is to have great photos. She is the best and always a pleasure to work with!”
Jared Blackstone ~ Arizona Highwaymen & Blackstone 3
“Annie has a keen eye for details and lighting that always allows her to capture some amazing photographs! She excels at capturing performance photos at just the right moment and when the lighting is perfect, be it indoor or outdoor. She is equally adept at capturing the perfect photo — people, pets, animals, and nature scenes. Be it graduation or wedding pictures, performing arts, or pictures of your Harley, Annie Cooper can give exactly what you are looking for!”
James Doughton ~ Mary Jane’s Rocket
“We all have moments in life we want to remember. They can flash by in a second and we think we have some idea of the moment or the split second that defined the countless hours of hard work put into a moment of a lifetime or your purist heart in your artistry. I have friends and family that know I play and have never seen it come to life — then one day you are lucky enough to meet the singularity in artistry that can capture a moment and make it a lasting memory. I have been playing for many years and some of my greatest moments have been captured by a heart with a vision. A woman with a dream to make you come to life, in a moment — a split second most would never know happened, but she had the vision to see it coming. Even when I am done with a show and she is there I am so surprised by what she was able to capture. Pure talent and a joy to work with. My number one call for anything. I am so impressed by her every time. Blessed to have her. If you need pictures — it is easy, call Annie Cooper, and done.”

“Annie has taken pictures of my band when we played the KOOL FM 94.5 Battle of the Cover Bands as well as other shows we have played at various venues across town. The pictures she captured were vivid, lively, and dramatic. The color detail and sharpness of the photos were breathtaking. She demonstrates a clear talent for capturing the best moments of our performance. I would recommend her photography service for any event.”

Laura Workman ~ Precious Time — Pat Benatar Tribute, Laura and the Workmen, ACB — A Cover Band
“Annie has an incredible eye for amazing candid and action shots. We’ve called on her to shoot us at some of our most important showcases, and she has never failed to deliver awe-inspiring photos for us. We are a very active group of musicians with a highly theatrical stage show and she always manages to catch the exact moment where the lights are perfect and the pose is perfect. The types of images she gets are larger than life, and we’ve always had the utmost confidence in her to make us look our best. She’s even taken shots with just a phone that surpasses what you would expect from world-renown professionals. Annie is one of the best we’ve ever had, and we are lucky to have her magic to make us look good.”
Tim, Tommy, Eric, Will ~ WAZP AZ — Tribute to WASP
”Annie's photography stands out and grabs the viewer's eye immediately because Ms. Cooper has the knack for seeing the moment and the talent to capture it at precisely the right time, whether it is the electricity of an exuberating rock star or the whimsy on the face and in the eyes of a perfect stranger.”

Cliff Daniel ~ Rock Land & Southbound Rider Band
“Annie Cooper is truly an outstanding photographer (and wonderful person) with an almost magical ability to capture the true nature of people and events. In my experience, she has the ability to make our Led Zeppelin tribute band actually look like the Mighty Zep from back in the day and we are blessed with priceless memories as a result of her inspired work. I would recommend Annie to anyone for any setting.”
Jared Bader ~ Led Zepplified — A Tribute to Led Zeppelin & Southbound Rider Band
“We were astonished by the photos Annie took of the band. Spectacular shots catching the lights and color of our stage show. Great promotional material for us to use. I would recommend her to any band of any genre. Thank you, Annie Cooper.”
Animal Magnetism — A Tribute to the Scorpions
“Annie Cooper came and photographed one of the band's gigs recently. The results were truly fantastic. She was able to capture each band member's personality and passion for playing in each shot. Her eye for artistic detail and the ability to capture on film that unique moment that makes the picture stand out from the others is absolutely amazing. She is most definitely one of the best commercial photographers in Phoenix. Book her for your next show or event. You won’t be disappointed!”

I always look forward to seeing what she got — even when she’s photographing other bands! Great photographer to work with. She’s energetic, professional, and isn’t a distraction to the audience.”
