Hey you! So if you haven’t heard the news (via Facebook) and still come over to this blog, just wanted to let you know that this blog will no longer be active. Moment of silence…. lol, just kidding! This is only because I’ve made a brand spanking new blog-site over at www.pixielifephoto.com! Yana K Photography has transitioned over to Pixie Life and is having a fabulous ol’ time at the new blog, so come check it out over there! And thanks so much for coming by!
I had such a good time with these little people
Let me just say that good parenting makes a photographer’s job so much easier! We did this shoot a few days after Christmas and I honestly wasn’t quite sure how well the wintery season would photograph, but as soon as I realized that my little clients were actually super cooperative with me and each other (not to mention super adorable), I knew we were in for a good shoot. These were my “oldest” clients thus far so I was a bit unsure of how to carry myself or how to get their relaxed smiles and laughs (I’m pretty good at getting a laugh out of a 2 year old, but I doubt a 10 year old would appreciate my methods haha!). Anyways, shortly after the shoot began, I realized I should just have conversations with each of them and find out what interests them and what they love and in no time they were the ones guiding the direction of the shoot, whether it be swinging off a tree or or climbing a humongous rock. I even included a little video of the youngest boy reenacting a scene from Lord of the Rings! He got a Lord of the Rings ring for Christmas so he really, really, really wanted me to film him acting as Gollum. And I gotta say, it was quite the unexpected entertainment!
Well enough said, enjoy the pictures and leave some comment love before you go
Love this photo! They’re such little models!
After of our shoot, while their dad was getting the car, the kids and I had some yummy hot cocoa and the little girl got some whip cream on her nose so I just had to whip out my camera and take one last shot

Meet Benjamin! I was his mommy’s maid of honor what seems like oh so-not-that-long agoBut boy does time fly! My friend Eva is now consumed by mommy world and what a joy it is to witness another new stage in her life and to capture this handsome little guy.
We actually did this shoot a couple months back, but since the holidays have been upon us, I didn’t get a chance to blog the images before. For this shoot, we didn’t have too much to work with except really nice window lighting and a small couch, but thankfully since it’s a newborn session, simplicity is key
Enjoy!
