New Blog Digs, and some additional info

Hi All! I will try to post her periodically but it may end up more of the ramblings of my mind than my blog because I have new digs for my photography blog. It is now linked into my new website. Anne Elliott Photography Blog

But, just a little bit about what has been going on. Went on a recent photo walk with some friends at White Rock Lake. Got some great new stuff, and some of it is posted on my website today. I also have some bluebonnet photos I need to edit, but all in good time.

Events coming up(in no particular order):

April 27th: Relay For Life - Wylie, Sachse, Murphy. I'll be walking all night along with my team for American Cancer Society. I will also be doing event photography. Looking forward to sharing my talents with others to honor my Cousin Bob.

April 21st: Warrior Dash - Sorry folks no photos of this other than what I may capture on my phone, and possibly my small quick shot. I'm running this one with my hubby, and some friends. Looking forward to getting muddy, and showing my stronger warrior side this year.

May 5th ; It's my hubbies birthday...sshhh...don't tell him that he's getting old. lol.

COMING SOON:

Engagement Photography

Prints For Purchase on my Website - I will be setting up a shopping cart, and you will soon be able to purchase prints for art use. I will have prints, framed prints, gallery wrapped canvases, and gift cards to start. More products coming soon. :-)

RFL Kick Off and "The Light"

The last couple years I have participated in Relay For Life. An all night walk to raise money for American Cancer Society. I'm blessed to be part of a wonderful team, The Wylie Mom's. Each year we have out down ourselves with our fundraising, and we hope to do the same again. This year I am volunteering my photographic talents to capture the moments of the evening as well as the big kick off event. It was a beautiful Saturday, and we are off to a great start.

This all started for me as a fun way to participate in a charitable fundraiser with my friends. And then a couple years ago my Cousin Bob found out his cancer was back. He had survived cancer as a kid, but the radiation that saved Bob camed back to haunt him later in life. Cancer came back with a vengence, and took from this world one of the greatest photographers I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I regret that I never had the chance to shoot with Bob. That being said, I can't help but sometimes feel a greater force guiding me on this journey. It is easy to be sad when a person leaves us in this life to journey into the beyond.

My final photo of this blog I dedicate to Bob. I call it "The Light". "The Light" burns for all those we love that battle this awful disease, and continues to burn for those we have lost.

If you would like to make a donation to support me in my walk this year, please go to my page:

When Photogs Walk

New Year's Eve....

High Noon....

A group of geeky photogs gather in the parking lot of Oddfellows. We get sneered at, and informed we are blocking the sidewalk. No matter! We have gear in hand, and soon people are avoiding us as if we are paparazzi. This lovely group are my friends, and we are about to embark on a walk through one of Dallas's finest gems, The Bishop Arts District.

The Bishop Arts district is a mini Austin Sixth Street in our very own Oak Cliff. OK! I know! I say "Oak Cliff" and instantly, if you know Dallas, the mind flips to a "bad part of town", and run down houses. Fear not my friends!! You will indeed find yourself safe here. You will also find a host of glorious little stores filled with trinkets galore, and restaurants with some of the finest food in this town. Eno's, Oddfellow's, The Soda Factory, and Dude, Sweet Chocolate to name a few.

Together with my dozen photog friends, we explored a bit of the area and shot some great photos on this beautiful and unseasonably warm New Years Eve. Fun was had for all! If you get a chance, travel over to The Bishop Arts District. You won't be disappointed.

It LIVES!!!

It morphs! It grows! It becomes mine! My dreams of my heart are becoming my reality. I'm thrilled beyond measure. So blessed by those that keep pushing me to follow these dreams. I love you all!!
