https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7zGOGrYb2IRus Anson studied advertising and graphic design as an undergrad in Barcelona. She got a job after graduation at McCann Erickson, but quickly found herself at odds with the stressful rhythm of the ad agencies So she borrowed a camera, and entered and won a photo contest run by El Pais. The prize was her first camera, and the validation gave her the confidence to apply for (and win) a scholarship to study in San Francisco.
Her style is particularly suited to photographing children, and it's paid off - she's done recent campaigns for Guess Kids and features in Parents, Prevention and Babiekins magazines. Anson told PDN, I don't mind laying around the floor and jumping with them and singing songs.
