Sara Anthony Photography bio picture
  • WELCOME!

    A little about me.....
    * Drew {my husband} first kissed me in 1991, we've been in love ever since.
    * I grew up in a large family, loved it & continued the trend.
    * Shopping is relaxing and therapeutic.
    * Bright colored stripes and the color orange thrill me.
    * I have a weakness for purses & bags of all shapes and sizes.
    * The question "What's for dinner?" stresses me out.
    * Pretty painted toenails make me happy, the crazier the color the better!
    * I love the tranquility of a clean house, but rarely get to experience that.
    * I regularly try to quit drinking Diet Coke with little success.
    * Photographing people is the best creative outlet I could ever ask for.

We took some photos outside then moved inside for some studio images.  Kimber’s mom has a pink scarf that has been a part of each milestone session.  In preparation for the session, I had been trying to think of how incorporate the scarf into her 6 month session, and here’s what I came up with….

Toward the end of our time together I believe Kimber was sending me a clear message…. “I am DONE having my picture taken!!”
