Stuff and Things

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 30, 2010

Just some stuff and things. Things I like and stuff I love. Enjoy. I went to Charleston, SC on a field trip back in 10th grade, and I fell in love with the gardens that were tucked away behind wrought iron gates and hidden amongst the old brick houses. On that trip, my friend Whitney [...]

Sexy Lexie and the "Fitty Mil"

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 27, 2010

So, I don’t usually blog twice in one day, because I feel it may be indicative of a rehab-requiring addiction to technology. However. I have good reason, so I’m giving myself a pass…this time. Not only did I finally get my new 50mm lens, but the Lexster also got a haircut–her first in WAY too [...]

Wacker Family Shoot:::Gainesville Family Photographer

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 27, 2010

Every time someone asked me what shoot I had planned for this past weekend, I would reply, “Well, it’s 3-year-old twins, and one is blond and the other is a redhead.” And every time, the response was, “Awwwww!!! That’s going to be so cute!” And it was pretty darn cute if I do say so myself! [...]

I loved spending time with this family, and I must admit…it warms my heart every time a kid calls me “Miss Wendy.” This time [...]

Rainy Day Observations

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 25, 2010

It’s a rainy Sunday afternoon. On the one hand, I love a rainy, slow Sunday afternoon. They mean relaxation, naps, and a good book. On the other hand, they also mean my photo shoot with a family who lives out of town got cancelled. Which means we don’t get to make up the shoot til [...]

A Good Day for Photography

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 23, 2010

Today has been a good day for photography. Not because I’ve taken any photos, because I haven’t, and I probably won’t since my day will be consisting of work and then shopping and then wine drinking with Erica. But it’s still been a good day for photography for two reasons: 1. My new lens (50mm, [...]

Engaged:::Kelsi & Chris:::Gainesville Engagement Photographer

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 22, 2010

“My life is like a Jane Austen novel. I went off to Europe for a summer and came back ready to be married to the most amazing man I’ve ever known. Kind of like 1800s finishing school, except less lace…” No, that wasn’t a quote from Kiera Knightley’s next movie. Those are Kelsi’s own words on her [...]

Floor-to-Ceiling Bookshelves

By Anwen Elizabeth Photography | Published April 20, 2010

Todd sent me an article the other day that he said I might like. The article talked about book covers, and how they are an endangered art, an identifying mark that will soon only be visible as a thumbnail logo on the i-Pad or Kindle. The article talked about books reverently, but honestly, admitting that sooner or [...]
