Beginnings
Hardcover from Geddes Group
Published: 2010-10-05
Availability: Usually ships in 24 hoursAward-winning photographer Anne
Geddes founded a new tradition in visual storytelling and captivated an
international audience. Now, after spending 12 months photographing, Anne
reveals a range of images that are, in her own words, among the most personally
rewarding she has ever created. A beautiful gift book with more than 140
never-before-published photographs, BEGINNINGS will be released
worldwide on 10.10.10 in countries including, the United States,
Canada, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Brazil, Australia and New Zealand.
I have always been fascinated by elements of nature at the moment of
transformation," comments Anne. Babies are the human face of beginnings,
but all of nature is caught in this insistent stream of seasons, of aging
and rebirth, of concealment and bursting forth. Every time I unwrap a newborn,
even after all these years of photographing them, I am aware of the miracle
before me. This book, Beginnings, took me on a journey of discovery to
reveal these everyday miracles of nature, these complementary wonders,
in imagery."
Continuing in the tradition that has made her one of the most sought-after
and popular photographers in the world, in BEGINNINGS, Anne
Geddes presents the simple and elegant elements of nature as we have never
seen them before. With her camera, she has conceived a fresh story about
the delicate and powerful mystery of new life that will inspire nature
lovers just as surely as her images of babies have captured the imaginations
of people around the globe. She reveals the intricate beauty of birds'
nests, the delicacy of eggs, and the glorious color hidden inside the tight,
unopened petals of a blossom before it blooms. Then, she expands on her
visual metaphor to reveal surprising and illuminating juxtapositions of
beginnings in floral and human forms.
Once again, Anne Geddes draws our eye to celebrate those treasures
worth nurturing and protecting. Told in a language of love that is understood
by so many cultures and people of all ages, BEGINNINGS is
sure to transcend boundaries, as her other internationally bestselling
books have done. |

Until
Now
by Anne Geddes
Hardcover from Andrews McMeel Publishing
ISBN: 0740735411
Anne Geddes' photographs of babies have charmed countless fans for many
years. In Until Now, Geddes takes us behind the scenes to find out what
she was thinking when she captured these images, her 113 most-favorite
photographs. Her text also provides a background to each photograph and
helps readers understand how this artist and her subjects work together.Consider,
for example, Geddes' comments about the shot she captured in 1991, which
she titled "Rebecca": "She didn't want to hold the tulips, and she didn't
want to sit on the chair-there were too many other things to be done. How
do you get a 14-month-old to sit still' Show her the jelly bean, and then
put it down her trousers."From signature photos of newborns to touching
interactions between parent and child to enthusiastic poses from older
children, this gift-size hardcover edition of Until Now gathers together
Geddes' most revealing and compelling work. Whether she's posing babies
in the garden or in the studio, Anne Geddes' deep affection for babies
and children is obvious in the award-winning images she creates.
Sleeping angels. Flower fairies. Woodland nymphs and watermelon seeds.
Anne Geddes's magical world is populated by hundreds of beautiful, chubby
babies and gorgeous children dressed as peapods, pansies, peonies, and
pearls. Geddes fans will be thrilled by Until Now, a lush, coffee-table-sized,
10-year retrospective of Geddes's work, including 1991's crowd-pleasing
"Cabbage Kids," featured on calendars and coffee mugs everywhere, as well
as many previously uncollected shots from Geddes's New Zealand studio.
It's not all costumes, though--the 1997 portrait of Caleb, 3 weeks old,
is a beautiful, unretouched close-up of the sweetly sleeping newborn, belly-button
still poking out and skin peeling. A portrait only a mother could love?
Hardly. Caleb's perfect little sleeping face would evoke maternal feelings
from a stone. Particularly fun and often touching are Geddes's notes at
the back of the book. For example, of "Rebecca," she writes, "How do you
get a 14-month-old to sit still? Show her the jelly bean, and then put
it down her trousers." The resulting photograph is of a lovely, mop-headed,
tummy-grabbing toddler peering intently at her own navel. Incorporating
both rich color and black-and-white photographs, Until Now will
delight parents, grandparents, and baby-lovers of all sizes. --Rebecca
