Anna Claire
All has been a little silent on my blog lately, I haven’t left just yet, only getting ready… Provence, here I come!
Let me share Anna’s session. Anna is no longer a senior, but already well into college. She finished her first year at UF, and was thrilled to receive her letter of acceptance into Sewanee very recently. So mature and eager to live the ambitious life she has mapped out for herself, Anna “croque la vie a pleine dents”. It’s only fitting to use french to describe Anna, as she’s a francophile and has already visited Normandie this summer by offering her aupair services to a french family. Soon, she will return to Paris with her mother to discover our beautiful capital. We had different location ideas for her session, and Anna suggested her grand parents farm, which holds a special place in her heart, and turned out to be a wonderful backdrop for her many outfits and gorgeous evening gowns. We had to reschedule once due to bad weather, and as we drove into Alabama (on a clear day in Pensacola), the skies shifted… Anna settled for her first picture, and it started to rain. It rained just about the whole time. Challenged we got a little creative, I pulled out my flash, the duck tape, and it all turned out perfect.
Check out Anna’s dancing shoes! And she knows how to tango with her magic slippers, it’s one of her passions.
Arielle, this is fantastic work. Anna, you look like you're having a blast and a half. Love it!
These photos are beautiful! I can't think of a better word.
Anna - you look absolutely fantastic. I am so proud of you. Mr. M
Wow. This is some beautiful composition, lighting, editing... and Anna, you look radiant!
These photographs beautifully illustrate the spirit of the engaging young woman I know as Anna Claire.
Absolutely stunning work, photographer and photographee. I especially like the one of Anna in the green dress, holding the apple - a provocative twist on the garden of Eden. Knowledge is choice and power!
anna!! these are so beautiful! love the last one of you in the green dress. love the green accents that match the dress. ok i could go on and on. so natural and elegant. but that's not why i like you :)
arielle, i love these, you are so talented. i love how you were able to match accents in the scenery with anna's outfits and capture anna's natural beauty. great work!

These are absolutely gorgeous. I think my favorites are the silver/gray dress - fantastic color contrasts! Beautiful Anna :)
OH MY GOODNESS!!! Anna, you are an engaging and beautiful subject in the hands of a very talented artist. Absolutely wonderful work on both your parts. Wow. Very impressive! GOOD FOR YOU!!! It's hard to pick a favorite as they are all lovely and artistically interesting. The spider web on the magnoglia blossom is neat. Seeing Pam's paintings in the background are perfect. Anna - you're a gorgeous model.

Love the photos Anna! Especially the first one where you look like you're contemplating some mischief, and you in your magic tango shoes (a must have shot for any dancer ^_^).

Really lovely. I didn't know you could get this kind of portraiture done. Classy!
Anna, I love your pictures. The right photographer has met the right subject...you are a natural!
Gorgeous and fun. I like the three of the silver/ grey dress and the very green background. You look happy in these.
