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)…

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…..

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…..

And her awesome daddy! Who allowed me to post this Soooo excited about that because there is so much I just LOVE about this image. Kate and her family travelled all the way from Rockford, Illinois to spend the morning with me.

She loved having her arms like this. Just chillin’ (does saying that make me sound like I graduated in 1990?)

At first he was not very interested in having his clothes removed for nakey baby pictures. In fact, I was actually afraid to remove his clothes starting off. For fear that our sleep time would be over…. Fortunately he got all nice and cozy and warm. And let me have my way! For some reason the babies this week have not wanted any tummy poses. Usually I will have one or two who just say NO to tummy poses. But all of them? I think it was a bit of a baby conspiracy.



I just love the look of this shot….the mix between his sweet little baby clothes and his adorable little newborn face.

I will have to admit that I was quite enthralled with his delicate baby features.

Meet beautiful 2 + week old Dylan. He was such a charmer! And that HAIR! Oh my goodness, isn’t it just sniffable???

And I had to post this one. There is nothing like a good cute doggie image to make me smile.

I am a poet and didn’t know it!!!!

If I sound a bit wacky today it is because I am seriously high on paint fumes from the hubs painting the living room. I am lucky that he actually agreed to do it because *usually* he tries to turn me down. For the simple reason that I have the habit of changing my mind. After he paints. One time he had to do two walls with three different colors before I got it right. What can I say? I am a perfectionist at the visual.

Ok, back to Mia. She wins the award this year for most poop and pee in one photo session. YAY!!!! Fortunately it was all on mom and dad…none on me Triple YAY!

Here she is smiling away…..knowing that pretty soon daddy will be dripping in pee

All cuddled up with mommy….







And because I know mommy will appreciate this….she appears to be saying….”seriously dad, WTF”??? For those less acronym inclined, I won’t translate that as this is a PG rated blog……







peace and much love ♥ anya

beautiful baby girl #2 that I got to spend the day with this week. I swear I could stare at babies for hours. And never get bored. Which is probably why I am ever so in love with this job of mine. I get to cuddle and play with babies for a few hours and then hand them back! Plus I actually get to sleep all night. If I could just convince my kids that they are now SUPPOSED to let me sleep all night.

I added the last image in special for the labor and delivery nurses at a certain hospital here in town

This image cracks me up!
