Every post below this one is OLD news.

Welcome to the new, re-imagined, Annielyn Images. It’s 2011 and it’s been a crazy start to the year. So much so that every time we have gone to update ourselves to you, nine other new things have happened. So, in the next few posts, we’re just going to summarise what’s been going on, and what it means for you :)

First, some recent history. I accepted the position of Vice President of the PPAQ (link)
Whilst I love hanging out with other photographers, there was one thing I noticed. Photographers complain. A lot. About other photographers. About markets. About gear. About change. Many meetings were had about conditions the world had ‘thrust upon us’. And it made me realise – WHAT A BUNCH OF COMPLAINERS HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I’m not in this for the complaining! I’m in this to photograph beautiful weddings. That’s it! And when Anna and I refocussed on that, we accidentally made some startling leaps and bounds. And that’s a rollercoaster that we have strived to keep rolling.

Towards the end of 2010, we realised change was needed. Times change, clients change and we wanted to not react to this, but lead the charge into this. Everyone remembers the GFC (it’s still current :) ) – we thought it didn’t affect us, but slowly (too slowly) noticed that you (the reader) WERE changing, not in a negative way, or a positive way – just changing.

So we changed our mission. Drastically. But didn’t know how to introduce it. Didn’t know how to present it so that the cool, big city kids (photographers) would react to it positively and so that you, our couples who help us have this career would react positively. Then we realised something. There’s an easy way to solve this problem. Stop worrying about other photographers! We’ve never been the same as them anyway! You guys know that, that’s why we get so many awesome clients! We just never realised. Sure we all use cameras, kind of in the same way we all use cars to get to work! But we’re not all the same.

When that light bulb went off, things got exciting! Fast. Too fast to blog about!

It started with a new studio…….

Tamika was our awesome model and her hair was done by Leesha’s Hair Design and Makeup by Amanda’s Finishing Touch and it was all put together by the one and only Michael and Charlie:)

They have narrowed it down to just 3 images to choose from and would love any future brides to cast their vote… Please head on over to the Toowoomba Wedding Guide website to cast your vote.

Voting ends on the 30th August 2010:)
