One of my most favorite families on earth… a group of humans that exude charm and sass and zest for life, all with one half-laughing raised eyebrow… and all with dancing shoes on… this is my tribute to you… <3

Oh What Fun!
Posted by Ana Schechter in anaphoto on December 13, 2010
BOINGGGGG…these twins are bounding, leaping and STYLISH bursts of energy, so I was delighted to fulfill their holiday portrait vision. How high can you jump wearing your favorite outfit?
This is our third wonderful holiday portrait for Emma and Bella, and it’s going to be SUPER HARD to top this idea next year! I’m brainstorming already… until then? I’m going to bounce right straight through to the New Year with bouncy joyous thoughts of my loftiest girls!

ZULILY
Posted by Ana Schechter in anaphoto on November 11, 2010
When is a party not just a party but an EXTRAVAGANZA?
When Zulily.com (the BEST Daily Deals for Moms) pulls out all the stops, throwing a bash of colorfully epic proportions while still maintaining a cosy, intimate vibe for the kiddos, you’ve got something special. You’ve got an Extravaganza.
Moms, Dads and their kiddos enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere at Alice’s Tea Cup, keeping busy with cupcake decorating stations, dress-up corners, and a carefully curated display of Zulily goodies.
A happy, giggling corner of this par-tay found me and my ANAPHOTO team, running a castle-themed Zulily Photobooth! I myself tend to shoot better pictures while wearing a cape. Check out the photos, and be sure to sign up for the Daily Deals at Zulily…(as if you’re not already subscribed!)

The Happiest Elf
Posted by Ana Schechter in anaphoto on November 4, 2010
Golly, if there ever was a tot to walk into my studio looking so chipper, easy-to-please and helpful, it was this incredibly animated little boy.
He pretty much sat, played and smiled on cue, which is quite literally UNHEARD OF in a 17-month old, and although the Santa hat took a bit of coaxing, as soon as I busted out my rendition of Twinkle, Twinkle (I’m not half bad, I’ll admit) and our team of studio helpers cleverly rattled a box of jungle bells, he soon forgot the unintentional costume.
Having photographed this tiny elf since the teeny age of 4 months, I am certain when I say that this helper is only getting more and more scrumptious with every passing month!
Sandy Claus, you ought to be extra-grateful for this one.

California Gurl
Posted by Ana Schechter in anaphoto on November 4, 2010
When I first met Alexandra, she sure did mind her P’s and Q’s. She walked on set and everything she did was adorable, but she was rather reserved in front of the camera. Reserved, that is, until a certain Katy Perry song came on the iPad DJ station! (It’s a song I have on frequent rotation in my studio!)
When the first bars of California Gurls began, Alex literally JUMPED into gear, showing us her grin, literally one of the sweetest smiles I’ve ever seen.
Feast your eyes on this delicious little angel!

Sass & Spunk: A tale of Three Sisters!
Posted by Ana Schechter in anaphoto on February 28, 2010
I could barely believe my luck, a few weeks ago, when the gorgeous Chiaravalle Family strolled into my studio! This gorgeous mom and her three little stunners just knocked my socks of with their playfulness, and we just spent our time spinning, climbing, singing and playing–everything BUT posing! I just love how they interact with each other, each so unique and independent, but each with always a hand on the other, so used to being together. BIG LOVE to these girls! <3
