A little about me...

Welcome to my new and improved blog! Well not really new, you can still see all my old posts, but with some added navigability.

I hope you find helpful information here about my products and services as well as some insight to who I am through the photos and stories I tell in my entries.

A crash course in ANNA:

I’m married to a wonderfully funny man who strives to make me crazy with his practical jokes and usually succeeds. We have two beautiful girls and now he strives to make them crazy too, which takes a lot of the pressure off me!

I’ve been photographing people and places since I received my first camera from my dad when I was around 9 years old. I didn’t really get SERIOUS about photography though, until I gave birth to my first little beauty almost 5 years ago.

I graduated in 2000 from Oregon State University with a degree in Psychology. They say that this can be a good background for photographers to have in relating with clients; I think it probably does help. The bigger picture I see there though says more about who I am and why I am interested in both psychology and photography. Quite simply, I am interested in people. It’s really fullfilling to make connections with people and share in their special moments. Being able to present them with beautiful images of these moments is like the cherry on top. Dream job? You could say that.

Anyway, check back often to see what's been going on lately in my world of photography. I've been a slacker in the past at blogging, but I am really trying I promise! If you have any questions or comments be sure to let me know. And for more specific info on sessions, weddings and pricing be sure to stop by my website at www.annaaasen.com

Thanks for stopping by!

Just received my first two necklaces and other shapes and sizes will be available soon. I love, love, love these. To spread my love of these little creatures I am offering and introductory special - For a limited time I am offering mini sessions (around 30 minutes) and a small square necklace with the image of your choice for $75. Combined with an elegant gift certificate, this makes a unique gift and a great deal especially since the necklace alone retails for $50! Maybe you want to gift it to yourself - that's fine too!

The large square pendant with leather cord measures 5/16" retails for $60
The small square pendant (not shown) with leather cord measures 5/8" and retails for $50
*You don't have to have a session with me to order - although I want you to so you save if you do ;-) Add $15 to price to use a photo you already have.

nature

Had fun taking some photos around the yard of different flowers and textures from nature. We have been in Roseburg for a year now and I absolutely love the seasons here! I threw in a couple extras too - not really nature, but I did find them outside - so that counts right?

Garet & Shainy - Yamhill 9.26.09

What a romantic day! You can tell by the way Shainy and Garet look at each other that they adore one another! They had a very intimate ceremony and reception in Yamhill last weekend. This was a true family affair with everyone pitching in some way or another to bring special details and memories to the day. Shainy's dad Tony for instance, made the wedding cake and was actually frosting the cake when I arrived and it turned out beautifully. Shainy also hired a dance instructor to come and teach an English social dance to the guests - a very classy touch that added a very unique element to the day. Garet and Shainy, I really enjoyed photographing your special day - thank you so much for letting me be a part of it!
