Fun Family Shoot

This spring I was lucky to meet "V" and his beautiful wife "M" and their two children "S" and "A". What a busy household they have with two little boys running around, but I just loved their family dynamic. Mom and Dad seem like such a great team and their children seem to be thriving!

"S" is such an energetic little thing! We had a great time checking out all of his toys and boy was it ever tough to get him in the picture, smiling and still for a family photo - so we made it into a game of peek-a-boo!

Look at that face! How can you not fall in love with this baby boy?!

I love the affection that Mom and Dad have for their kids and each other. It seemed like such a pleasant and happy household...

Little "S" loved any attention that came his way and was more than happy to ham it up for the camera!

Thank you to this wonderful family for allowing me to spend an afternoon with them!

Now on Facebook!

Recently I decided to give in to the whole "facebook" approach to life and created a group for Annya Miller Photography and a group for Equine Eye Photography.

I will be using these groups to keep people updated with the going ons and specials being offered for each, as well as I will likely be giving special discounts and offers at different times to the member's of the group. So if you too are a facebook junkie please look up the group, add yourself and pass along to any friends you think might be interested and you can be the first to know about some of the great opportunities and specials that will be happening this summer!

Baby Blue Eyes!

When I had the pleasure of going to meet baby girl "M", I could not get over her gorgeous blue eyes! They are just so bright. She is an adorable little thing as you will see from the pictures and I had a great time photographing her with her mom, and dad. They were great people, with great senses of humour and we had a ton of fun!

Here are some shots from her gallery:

I love the little "daddy's girl" shots!

Adorable little baby bum....

Being so cute is such hard work!


While mom and dad were off comforting and changing little baby "M" their striking cat sauntered up and sat down on the backdrop as if to say, "ok I am ready for my closeup!" and I just couldn't resist! Isn't he handsome?

New Options For Digital Files!

Over the last few months the pressure from clients to start offering options for digital files has been impossible to ignore! I have always hesitated to provide the digital negatives to my work because I really do prefer to retain creative and quality control over the prints being made from my negatives, however due to the overwhelming number of requests I have been receiving, I have decided to bend to change and embrace the new formats. In all honesty, another problem that I have had with the digital files is that I find that some, NOT all; people feel that they should be able to obtain the full resolution files for almost nothing. Unfortunately this is just not something that will be possible as the reality is that it is just as much work (in some cases more) for me to create a beautiful, fully retouched set of digital images as it is to create the prints.

That said, I am excited to announce that I have come up with some new digital options, and would be more than happy to hear any feed back that you might have or suggestions of products you would like to see in the future! Please check out the rates page at www.annyamillerphotography.com to see the new options.

The Wating... And The Result!

My next featured client is "A", "M" and "Baby Girl M". Our first session was scheduled on the day of the biggest snowstorm of the year, and because it was about a 1 and a 1/2 hour drive in GOOD weather we decided to postpone. "M" was very sweet and understanding and we ended up having a wonderful maternity session together! As you can see she was just beautiful in her pregnancy!

I was delighted about a month and half later to recieve an excited email from "A" announcing the arrival of little baby girl "M". I could tell from the email that "A" was over the moon and could not wait to go and meet their new baby girl.

"M" was just adorable in person and was very good considering she had such a long day with visitors from all over popping in and a photoshoot! I'm sure Daddy was pleased at her modesty as well, as little "M" refused to cooperate as long as she was naked, but settled in quite happily once she had her little pink outfit on! Just adorable!

Baby J and "Sister" Ophelia

Due to the fact that life gets busy, and quite frankly I tend to forget to provide regular updates, I am going to go through the last year of photo shoots over the next few weeks and show off some of the adorable babies, children and beautiful bellies that I have had the pleasure of photographing over the last few months.

The first of these sessions is Baby Girl J. She was only a few days old during our session and her proud mom and dad were more than happy to show her off. She has since become quite famous on ww.annyamillerphotography.com as one of the poster children for my portfolio! Here are a few of her images:

Her "older sister" Ophelia was grateful for the oppourtunity to get up close and personal with her new sister. I love the way she is watching over her here! So peaceful!

So peaceful!

Of course we couldn't have Ophelia feeling left out, so she got in on the action too!

The Month Long Celebration of Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all of the wonderful and fabulous Mom's out there!

For the entire month of May I am celebrating Mom's with some special offers! For the new and expectant mother's out there I am offering free newborn and maternity sessions. This is a great opportunity to have beautiful pregnancy or newborn images created to document this very special time forever, without having to worry about the cost of a session fee.

For all other mom's who have older babies, toddlers and children I am giving away a free CD of websized files with each child and baby or family session for sharing with your friends and family online through facebook, your own blogs or for making beautiful slideshows on the computer.

Contact me at info@annyamillerphotography.com if you would like more details or to take advantage of the May specials. Please, please PLEASE though, contact me quickly if you are interested as they move VERY quickly and I don't want to disappoint anyone when I run out of session dates!
