Have I mentioned lately I love what I do?

This young man holds a special place in my heart. I love watching him grow... his personality and smile will make you fall in love with him from the moment you meet him.

Oh, how I love what I do!!! Here are two wonderful kids. Big sister Mia and little brother Sebastian. They are so sweet and precious and oh, so in love with their mama.... it was hard to get then away from her for some fun shots alone.

This little girl was so much fun... her dress was just too cute... and she never stopped moving too, always on the go. Such a beauty!

It's all about the style [Ana Severance Photography - San Luis Obispo child photographer]

Well here is one more of my little Mommy and Me girls. Her name is Isabella. She was very serious at the beginning... just like in the first picture below, but a couple of songs later she was all giggles and play. A very charming, gorgeous and definitely stylish little girl. Just check out the pants! (handmade by her mother.... nice yeah?)

Little Miss Ashlyn was so precious and sweet. A tiny little bundle of love... there are no words to describe her.

Little Prince Charming [Ana Severance Photography - modern kids photographer]

He truly is a little price charming. He was my only boy during the Mommy and Me sessions and he charmed me from the moment we met - he is only 2... but look at that smile... it's intoxicating... all you want to do is just keep laughing next to him. What a happy little man!

Highlights of the Mommy and Me Session

This is Miss Sienna - what was the one most memorable thought about her? Pure porcelain like aristocratic skin! Stunning!





Here is Miss Sophia. Do I even need to say anything? Eyelashes... eyelashes... eyelashes...

I know I have been a touch slower this time with pictures - but computers and virtual IT world has not been my friend recently... too many uploading issues... anyway here are a few more images of God's true miracle called ELLA.

Mommy and Me [Ana Severance - California Child Photographer]

I wanted to take a couple of minutes and thank everyone for coming yesterday for the Mommy and Me photo event - it was such a treat to meet all of you and capture your lives. Even though the weather played a little trick on us in the morning we still managed to make the best out of it and capture some great images. I'll be posting little previews in the next couple of days so please come back! Thanks again - you were all absolutely irresistibly charming!

P.E.R.F.E.C.T.I.O.N. [Ana Severance - San Luis Obispo Newborn Photographer]

This week I made a new friend - Miss Ella. At just 4 weeks she already captured my heart - she is sweet and pure! Here is a little preview of our session. More to come soon. :)

Of the two images below cannot decide - texture?

or no texture - just Miss Ella's innocence?

Mommy and Me Photosession exclusively at MIA Boutique [Ana Severance - California Photographer]

This is a bit of a last minute endeavor - since I wasn't sure I would be able to pull it off this year - but let's give it a try!

Please give me a call (805 406 2475) and reserve your time for April 24, 2009. The images derived from the session would make a wonderful present for all your beloved mothers and grandmothers on their special day.

Kelly & Nathan [Ana Severance - engagement and wedding photography]

My good friend and mentor David Pascolla invited me as a second photographer to the engagement session for this gorgeous couple. The session took place in early March but since I was out of the country for the most part of the month I am only now starting to work on the images and posting some on the blog. They were fun, young and beautiful. Congratulations on the upcoming wedding guys!
