We had the pleasure of having dinner with some wonderful Wisconsin doc’s this past week… Their home was a kid paradise…with none other than a pony and a beautiful horse! Annika was insistent that she be able to hop on the pony. Mommy was insistent (of course) that she get some pictures. Mommy was also thrilled to discover that young child on pony = no running away from photos. YAY!

This pose was all Annika’s idea …

all this crazy dude would let me get of him…little nut!

peace, and much (pony) love ♥ anya

This past year I have walked into past client homes for second, third, and even fourth sessions…and it has been such a joy to see my work hanging proudly in their homes. My favorites are big canvas…and I could not wait to see how Elissa’s mama and daddy had hung this one. You can really never go wrong with a large canvas. It is one big beautiful piece of art…that represents YOU! Soon I will share how one of *my* fave photographers, who photographed my family this past October, decorated my home with canvas. I walk in my home every day and smile at the gorgeous art work that is *my* beautiful family.

…and here are a few of my absolute FAVE’s!!!







nothing like a little cake tossing…

peace and much love ♥ anya
