dylan turns one!
Yet another little wee man I photographed one year ago…when he was teeny…and tiny… Now he is all grown up and eating cake (and apparently candles too!). Dylan also loves to read….this was by far one of my FAVE photos from this session. And this one…this one just cracked me up! 😉 peace and much love ♥ anya

splish splash…Jaxon turns ONE!
this cute little bub gave me a great big hug the minute I walked in the door! I think he knew we were going to eat cake and splash in the bathtub… because THAT is the kind of fun Anya likes to have at one year old baby sessions. 😉 did someone say CAKE? cake + tired Jaxon = MESS!!! more catching up coming soon! peace and much love ♥ anya
and speaking of expressive…
This little wee one had me over a barrel. YAWN…..nighty night…. peace, much love, and beautiful dreams ♥ anya
Oh where oh where has little anya been?
Needless to say it is a very long, drawn out, probably exceedingly boring story about the journey life takes us when we least expect it. However, the million dollar question seems to be…… “Are you still taking clients”? And the answer is YES! I am still taking clients. And I am going to show off some of the gorgeous clients I have taken on…. starting with one of my fave little men, Nadav. I had the pleasure of photographing him at 6 months of age and was blessed once again when he turned one….. and he is so expressive I could just eat him up with marmalade and toast!!! (well and maybe a little peanut butter)… 😉
taking a little time off……..smelling the flowers (or maybe those are dirty diapers???)
Hello dear blog readers! I am writing to let everyone know that I have decided to take a bit of time off. I did not realize how significantly I would be affected by our move up north. Having kids at home all the time through the summer, reorganizing a new house, hubby having a new job, getting the kids settled in their various new schools, etc….. has required me to be so busy with my home life that I am unable to find the time for a professional life. I will be compiling a waiting list for clients who would like sessions after October, 2009. Current clients of mine who have already discussed sessions with me do not need to worry 🙂 I will still be photographing your family/wee ones as promised. Alas I have no image to post as all of my images are on my Mac which is currently being utilized as a kiddy daycare. peace and much love ♥ anya
well, I'm movin' on up… | madison wi and wausau wi newborn photographer
Yup, you read that right. I am moving. Well, actually, I already moved. To the east side…..of Wausau, Wisconsin. To a deluxe castle-home in the north-woods. Filled with deer, wild turkey, bears, woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and various ground squirrel and mouse that our cat-hunter decides to bring home as a “present”. So what does that mean for my lovely Madison clients???? It means that once a month I schedule Madison sessions!!!! Or at a discounted price you can come up to me and have your photographs taken in my beautiful prairie and woods OR in my lovely natural light home studio. Just contact me for details. In other news, have you been trying to get ahold of me via phone???? If so, please email me as my phone service since I have moved has “sucked” for lack of a better term. In fact, Verizon is even willing to let me out of my contract it sucks so bad. I haven’t been able to pick up messages well, make phone calls, etc…. So while I search for another service (yes, AT&T and the rockin I-phone 3G are in my sights!!!!), please contact me via the contact page on my website or by…
meet kaitlyn
Meet itty bitty Kaitlyn who was also born early! Her mommy graduates from medical school on Friday. Congratulations!!!! What a fantabulous year 🙂 (my spell checker says fantabulous is not a word….I respectfully disagree). Needless to say, Kaitlyn had bunnies hopping around her house….yes, actual LIVE bunnies. My kids are uber jealous of me today. So, of course, I had to put her in the little bunny foo foo hat. a little something different….because the kids are at guitar, Rowan is sleeping, and I have time to play a bit 🙂 peace and much bunny love ♥ anya
meet ethan
Wittle tiny man from Friday. He is an early bird as he wasn’t due to hatch for 4 more weeks! I am bone tired from a weekend of trying to heal our wounded doggie. She had surgery two weeks ago, developed a very bad complication, was on the verge of us having to put her down on Friday evening 🙁 , but now seems to be a bit on the mend. Fingers crossed!!! I will try to post photos of her and the kids very soon. First the cute baby….I get to spend tomorrow with another wittle early bird too…YAY! This one cracked me up! This is why I LOVE spending time with the wee ones….they all have their own little personalities….each one different, each one beautiful….. peace and much love ♥ anya
ella and family
A few more of baby ella and her awesome family. I have been dying to do an image of a daddy with a tattoo and his baby. This daddy has a rockin’ tattoo and loves his little baby girl to pieces 🙂 I have to give a HUGE shout out to my AWESOME dad’s who have bravely bared their chests for me to photograph them with their wee loves. There is honestly nothing that melts any mama’s heart more than seeing her man loving their baby. 🙂 And just for fun, I will let everyone in on my super top secret photo editing music collection….. Today’s (LOUD) selections were: Girlfriend in a Coma — Smiths Shoplifters of the World — Smiths (I know, both these songs are kinda weird to edit baby images to, eh? LOL!) Tupelo Honey — Van Morrison Talkin’ about a Revolution — Tracy Chapman Shimmer — Fuel Strangelove — Depeche Mode Shake the Disease — Depeche Mode (saw them live at the Forum in LA circa 1985 or ’86, I can’t remember!) Where the Streets Have no Name — U2 Bad — U2 (Saw live in 1988….my bff Heather and I got Bono butt view….don’t know…
