Anne Geddes

Born and raised in Queensland, Australia, Anne Geddes has always been interested in the strength that a photographic image could hold. In her mid-twenties, she began experimenting with the family camera, developing her signature style of simple structure and immediate visual impact.

One of the world's most respected and successful professional photographers, Anne has captured the imagination and hearts of people around the globe. Her distinctive, award-winning images of children have become classic icons celebrating life and birth. They grace greeting cards, calendars, books, stationery, photo albums, and an array of other fine products, and are currently published in over 50 countries, spanning North America, Europe, the British Isles, Australia, New Zealand, South America, and Asia. More than 13 million books plus many more millions of other non-book products have been sold worldwide.

In November 2001 Anne's Baby Clothing Collection was launched exclusively online. At the heart of Anne's success is her deep and abiding love of children. Her images have become classic icons celebrating birth and life.

Anne Geddes takes photos of babies like no one else does. She has an imaginary way of seeing the babies for their charaters and putting them into different costumes and positions to achieve her imagined desire. One sometimes has to look hard at the photos to notice where and if the baby is even in the picture. Everytime I see one of her photos it makes me happy and smile. Oh what a cute baby.
