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.

Spencer: South Atlanta/Newnan Newborn Photographer

Changing of seasons has brought with it a switching of gears.  I’m shifting from the fashion side of senior photography to the “trigger finger” mode of kids and babies.  Kids move so fast and newborns sleep or don’t, it’s all matter of how long you’re willing to wait.   And wait we did…..

…and wait.

Don’t let him fool you here.  He was only thinking of sleeping.

And then….. Crash. Out.  I bet he slept the whole way home too.  Modeling is hard work!
