Photographer Anne Geddes' Autobiography, "A Labor of Love"

I saw Anne Geddes on the Oprah show, and immediately thought that her new book, Labor of Love: An Autobiography sounded like a book I had to have.  Not only is the book Anne Geddes' story, but she shares stories of her photo shoots, and even follows up with the then-babies as they approach their teens.  One touching story involved Geddes photographing a Caesarean birth of twins, one of whom did not survive. 

Anne Geddes is known around the world for her amazing photographs of babies in unusual yet adorable settings.  A 2 pound preemie sleeping soundly in a seemingly gigantic hand of a man, a field of sunflower babies, a little aborigine baby in a bed of pearls...  Her work is prolific and provides her fans with the hope that we can find in the most innocent of humankind.

For some awesome videos of Anne Geddes at work in her studio (with babies!), be sure to scroll all the way down toward the bottom!  You won't regret it!

Gift ideas for new moms! 

Anne Geddes has created several products that are perfect for new moms. My favorite is the Anne Geddes Leather Diaper Bag, that looks sleek, classy and professional rather than cutesy and cumbersome. The best part is that Daddy won't be embarassed to carry it.

Memory books, such as My First Five Years or My Pregnancy Journal are thoughtful gifts that will be much appreciated.

I fell in love with Anne Geddes' work many years ago. She has given some wonderful interviews through the years, too. Her devotion is amazing--the amount of time she spends on each photo shoot makes my head spin, but the results are stunning.

What a beautiful tribute to this rare artist!
