What a fun loving bunch! It's the second time photographing this family and it's so nice to see the girl's growth. Even better, I got to meet the new prince! Although the weather was cooler than expected, these kiddos pulled through their session with smiles on their faces. As always mom and dad looked fantastic!
have fun
Last time I photographed these boys, the youngest wasn't walking yet. This year was extra special seeing the boys explore the park together and seeing how the little one was obsessed with my bench! These boys had a blast playing some games to capture some authentic moments as well as getting some posed portraits!
Spring fun

So much fun when the kids are all smiles and want to cooperate. No fake smiles here!

Spoiler Alert-You will want ALL of them!
I never had the chance to take processional pictures taken but being able to have my maternity, new born, and family pictures with ANE Photography was truly a blessing and such a heartwarming experience for me and my family! Carmen is very professional and such a great, charismatic, and joyful photographer. Having a toddler trying to take picture is very stressful at times but yet working with them it brought out his little personality! Definitely recommend and will be going with ANE Photography for my future family and kid pictures!
Maternity session
Katherine
I just want to say Carmen is super personable and very talented at her craft. You can tell that she is passionate about photography by how patient and attentive to detail she is. My newborn was very fussy during the photoshoot and Carmen was very understanding and even helped me soothe my newborn. There are not enough words to describe how amazing each and every photo that Alejandra took is. She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting, and of course expressions. She had so many wonderful props and was able to do so much!! I cried at how wonderful my newborn's photographs came out and I will cherish them forever. I 100% recommend her.

Best photography experience me and my son have had! Carmen did an AMAZING job with getting my son to smile and look at the camera. He did so well and the photos came out beautiful! I would definitely recommend ANE. 10/10 experience!
Cake smash Session
Jovanna & Moises
Carmen made our first family photo shoot a wonderful experience. She was super responsive to my emails and took the time to help me decide on which backdrops to use for the shoot. She is professional, personable, and great with kids. My daughter constantly asks when we can go see Carmen again and take more pictures. Our photos are beautiful. She gave great direction and posed us perfectly. Everything from the lighting and the angles exceeded my expectations. I’m so glad I found her and will definitely be booking with her again!
