Without you I'd be lost..

Wow!! How time flies! I can't believe in just a few days it will be a New Year & my vacation will be over :P I have LOADS & LOADS to blog about but cant just yet.
In the mean time, I wanted to share a couple things I've been making for our NYE partayyyyy... and a special video of me and my boys I came across while looking through my files. Yes, I know its from early 2009, but has so much meaning to us, I couldnt help but share.

Been through thick and thin together
through the ups and downs, yet we still remain
and I can talk to you forever.
Without you I'd be lost...

Nikki & Chris - Redondo Beach, CA

A couple weeks back we were invited to share a special moment in Chris & Nikki's life. We went and saw their sonogram pictures in 3D/4D! It was such an amazing and special moment in not only their lives, but ours as well, and it will definitely be a day that we will remember forever.. It's crazy to think that there's technology out there can take us one step closer to getting to know your child. 2D is one thing.. 3D/4D is whooole different experience! We were able to recognize that Kingston had daddy's nose, mommy's lips and a ton of hair :)  After the session we headed across the street to take some pictures to document that day.

Nikki & Chris,~Thank you so much for allowing us to share this special moment.. It will definitely be a day that we will never forget! We love you and Kingston SO much and can't wait to meet him!
Check out some of the pictures :)

Much Love,
Anna

Tony & Martha - Palos Verdes, CA

Before I post a follow up of my resolutions, I wanted to post some sneak peaks...

This was a special session for me.. It is of my cousin Tony & his wife Martha.. They came down to visit me on their last day of vacation and wanted to take some pictures before Tony was sent off and shipped away for work in the military.. Although he is going to the beautiful Islands of Hawaii, he will be away from Martha & their two little ones for quite some time.  Check out their sneak peak...








I have a couple of things in the works, along with some more sessions.. so come back soon! 


Much Love,

My 30 New Years Resolutions...

So... I do my New Year's Resolution on my birthday. I figure, it is my real new year and I guess it's more meaningful that way..

Here are a couple of my resolutions...
1. Publish Anna Hayes Photography website & get a facebook fan/like page.
2. Have pictures taken of all of us by one of my favorite photographers.
3. Complete 3 photo projects that I've been wanting to try & add a new addition to my blog.
4. Start the 365 day project.. Yes, I'm jumping on board.. More on that coming soon.. 
5. SAVE. SAVE. SAVE.
6. Hold 2-5 photography contest
7. Buy a bike and cruise at the beach with all my boys.
8. Be more experimental with foods. I have a pretty bland palette right now so I'm on a mission to try and enjoy a variety of foods that I've been missing out on.
9. Be more organized
10. and of course.. it wouldn't be complete if I didn't say..  Lose Weight/Get Fit.. I wanna get back into my old skinny jeans.. INSANITY here I come!

Those are just some that I can think of right now.. Through out the year I will be updating my list with progress and posting it here. Let me know whacha think! 
      
and, because every post is a little better with a picture.. here are a couple from my bday dinner!
"Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right!"
