I know it may SEEM like I'm not working when I don't blog for a while, but that's usually when I'm working the MOST! I am very picky about my images and like to take time with them, which is why there are still projects lingering from last year. A lot of people comment about how natural my images look and how beautiful the color is, and while it may look effortless on the surface, I actually put quite a bit of time into making them that way. I spend the most time with wedding images. Wedding images are once in a lifetime moments that can never be restaged with any degree of authenticity. They are the first family heriloom and they may be passed on to future generations - I take that responsibility very seriously and since I only get one chance to get it right, I want to make sure it's the best. With that said, each image below represents a project that is currently in progress. These 10 images represent over 20,000 images behind the scenes. I am working quickly to take care of them all, but will not sacrifice quality for speed. (Note: these aren't in any particular order.)
It took me 3 hours to put this post together (which could be spent working on 30 times the number of images in one project), so I hope this will soothe my blog addicts until my next post!! Worst part is, many of my blog stalkers are PHOTOGRAPHERS who just want to steal ideas!!! HAHAH!!! Just kidding - I love you guys and I'm equally inspired by your work. I mean that sincerely. Now go and post something on your blog for me to look at when I can't sleep tonight!! :-)
yay! Anne's the greatest. We don't want to pressure you, we just love your work!
ReplyDeleteWaaa hoo! There we are! This gave me a little leap-in-my-heart for joy ;)
ReplyDeleteGirlfriend, you are a rockstar!
ReplyDeleteAll of your work is so gorgeous and original and it is obvious that you put your heart into it.
With all of that work, don't forget to take good care of yourself! :-)
xo daria
Yippee! In my "stalking photographer" defense....the number of "o's" you put in "pictures coming soooooooon" is proportional to how quickly I expect to see them! If you just write "soon" next time... I will try to be more patient ;-)
ReplyDeleteMuch love my friend!
p.s. I LOVE that picture of the couple climbing the wall!
Well it is all your fault, now my blog has new pictures, and they don't measure up to yours at all. ;-)
ReplyDeletethey all look great, anne! :) can't wait to see more .. when you get time. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Anne! I'm new to your blog and just wanted to say I love your work! Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteHello Anne!! I got to see you for all of 2 seconds in Vegas, and you are quite the superstar! Hope our paths cross again soon.... Joy (Jules Bianchi's sister)
ReplyDeleteHEY! I'm not a stalker, just a 'secret supporter.' That's better.. Right? :) Anyway, I loooove your style, and you're on my list of blogs I visit when I need to feel pumped up & inspired! Keep up the amazing work.. You rock!
ReplyDeleteYou rock! :)
ReplyDeletehappy birthday, lady!!! hope you had a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteWho are you calling stalker? Well, yeah...we just like to surround ourselves the work of other great photographers.
ReplyDeleteWe stalk because we can't help ourselves, your work is amazing! I adore that first picture. Thanks for helping out Katie and I!!! Yay :-)
ReplyDeleteThe second and the last shots are simply stunning!!
ReplyDeleteI am, however, very interested in the first photo..wondering what THAT is all about!!? :)
Jen Lee (a "stalker" ) lol
Hey, I am just a client stalker! I will probably end up stalking even after the wedding is over. Oh well :( I am already hoping that by the time we're ready to have kids, you'll still be in the business and not too booked our priced out of our range for our portraits.
ReplyDeleteI love you guys!!!! ;) You make me smile everyday!!!
ReplyDeleteJen - the first photo is from a band called "Stampead" - here's to hoping my image will make an album!!!
I love the maternity pic Anne. Hopefully we can get you out here someday to take pics for us. Not yet but someday. BTW I joined a group on Flickr and I love it!
ReplyDeletestalker - check.
ReplyDeletephotographer - um...I try I guess
fan of your work - for sure.
Loving the Stampead shot Anne!
(oh and in the WPPI shots - I giggled (well not giggled, but the manly equivelent of giggling) at the one of you and 2 guys with the big WOMEN sign above you - nice touch!
Wow! Talk about purified work! Those are each perfect. I love the diversity in your work, even in the many weddings, each looks totally different! I am working on that part.
ReplyDeleteAmazing images Anne! Very inspiring
ReplyDeleteYou are halarious, isn't it so true!!! I am totally addicted to the blogs now...not to steal ;) just to look at pictures. Isn't that what we love to do, look at pictures! :) And yours are great!
