think pink!


Sarah Anna Photography is excited to announce a partnership with Think Pink Photography. Think Pink Photography was founded in October 2007 to support individuals and their families who have been touched by breast cancer. We are a charitable organization that serves two main purposes – celebrating life and supporting the cause.
Through our professional photographer network, we are helping breast cancer patients to celebrate life with charitable photography sessions. Individuals may choose to document their fight against the disease before or during treatment, or prefer to capture their victory by scheduling a session within 12 months after treatment is completed. Photographers world-wide are now available to donate time and talent to celebrate life and support the cause. There is no cost or obligation to the breast cancer patient. Clients participating in a Think Pink Session will receive a complimentary photo session, as well as a set of 10 small prints from the session. They will also receive a discount on any additional portraits they wish to purchase, although there is absolutely no purchase required at any time.
To support the cause, we have partnered with The Eric R. Beverly Family Foundation. All funds generated through donations and various fundraising efforts are paid directly to The Eric R. Beverly Family Foundation. As a 3-time breast cancer survivor, Danielle Beverly and her husband Eric joined together to form a foundation dedicated to promoting education, increasing awareness, and providing support and resources for families who have been touched by breast cancer.
Please subscribe to our blog (on the Think Pink website) and tell your friends and family about Think Pink Photography. Awareness is everything and we can’t be successful without you.
I encourage you to view our website, make a donation, or hire a photographer that supports Think Pink Photography! If you hire me, mention Think Pink and I will make a personal donation to the organization. If you, or someone you know, would like to schedule a Think Pink session, please contact me for details.
I am very proud to be a network photographer with Think Pink Photography, and am anxious to get the word out about this amazing program. For more information, you can contact me, or you can visit the Think Pink Photography website at:

June, July and August 2009 Newsletter



Hello Everyone!

I'm now back after my wedding, honeymoon, moving...with a news update about Sarah Anna Photography! I hope this message finds you well. I am excited to let you know about all the new and exciting work that I've been doing since my return. You can always check out my website, which has been updated, along with my blog, which is updated frequently to show all my most recent photography experiences! I would love to get comments and feedback there! Many of you have become fans of my Facebook page; thanks so much for all your support there! You can also follow me on Twitter, which is updated automatically on Facebook and my blog almost daily if not more...

Highlights:
First I must share with you our own Wedding Website! We had a blast seeing everyone at our wedding July 11, 2009, the location and weather were perfect! Of course I had many photographers shooting, along with artists...we are still working to get everything up online. Many of the images are posted on my personal facebook page - which you are free to add me as a friend if not already!
The past months have been a busy and exciting time, as always with the beginning of wedding season. With Wade & Erin's wedding just prior to our wedding June 6, 2009, we had a fabulous time shooting there engagement portraits in Milwaukee a few months back. They had a beautiful outdoor wedding, with a ice cream reception! Of course it rained during the ceremony and just after, it was freezing cold - yet the show must go on! Still we were able to capture some amazing, gorgeous images before the day was over! I hope you will enjoy seeing the beautiful portraits of Erin & Wade, if you would like to see more of the entire day!
I was also able to photograph the Mantasoot's preganancy portraits we had an amazing time - I love these images! Marc & Bridget took me to the most amazing location for these gorgeous, romantic landscape portraits. She has now given birth to a very handsome little guy!
Of course the family of three generations - one of the three coming from as far as Gallatin Gateway, MT! It was beautiful, the weather was perfect - we captured the family along the lakefront in Racine, WI and with the Racine lighthouse as a gorgeous backdrop. The children enjoyed skipping rocks between portraits and I captured the formal and informal moments of our session!
I am also excited about the images I took of Reanna Steven's second birthday - a little girl and her balloons! Very moody, artsy images that are also simple taken along the lakefront in Kenosha, WI. I photographed her with the Studio Hasselblad Camera (old school color film!) and digital as well. Hope you will enjoy!
Most recently I had the wonderful opportunity to capture Justeen & Joe's engagement session in and around Kenosha, County's farm landscape! We had a blast although we did have to dodge the bugs, our favorites at the end as the images just kept getting better and better as the session continued. Joe's little girl is just a perfect doll, the puppy in the family shots are just adorable!
Feel free to click any of the links above and comment there! I would love to get your feedback! Be sure to keep an eye on my blog for anything I missed in the newsletter. I would love to get your feedback!

Stay tuned for the many more things to come! I already know September's Newsletter is going to be great; featuring weddings, engagement sessions, more pregnancy portraits and family portraits! As always, thank you for your business and support! I always welcome new supporters, so pass this email on to friends and family who might be interested in my photography! I look forward to serving you in the future!

Best Wishes.

to give thanks...


today as i follow my fellow photographers it was mrs sarah roads who reminded me how wonderful it is to be a photographer. well right now i am reminded each day as my new husband waits, wonders and prays about his own job. yet with each prayer for wisdom as for what step he should take...he is always very thankful and grateful for the opportunity that i am finally being given to do what i love. to have the opportunity to capture and paint with light, to capture the feeling and emotion of the moment a person or couple is sharing in... this is a very rare and wonderful gift i have been given. i can't begin to use words to express how thankful i am. although the days never seem long enough, i at least love all that i get to do each day - i am oh so very blessed.
