Elton Anderson bio picture

About Me

I'm a Miami-based photographer but love to travel for the perfect picture!

I like to think I have a very classic style, with a youthful twist. 

I think a wedding is the most amazing experience to capture on film

I'm a Nikon user, an Apple lover and Nike Fanatic!

You will always see an issue of GQ, Complex and Vogue Magazine on my coffee table (Yes, Vogue has some of the most amazing photographers ever!) 

I run daily, not to stay in shape but to support my eating habit.

L-10 is my nickname, get it... EL-TEN (Elton)

There is beauty in everyone and everything.... my goal is to capture it.

JA’LISA + JAYE

March 29, 2009

This past weekend I went to my hometown of Detroit to visit family but the highlight of my trip (besides my beautiful niece, of course) was my engagement shoot with Ja’Lisa and Jaye. I actually went to high school with this couple but their love didn’t bloom until well after we graduated. Fast forward 9 years later and I’m shooting their engagement pictures. Lucky for me they’re beautiful because the weather was not! The sun didn’t come out the entire weekend and it even snowed during our shoot. I really have to give it up to Ja’Lisa and Jaye… despite the bad weather and bitter cold their pictures came out AMAZING and we laughed the entire time. I am so ready to shoot their wedding in June and I can promise it won’t snow! (I hope ;-) )

*note: thanks to Jessica Nabongo for being a great assistant during the shoot!

and then came the snow… whomp, whomp but these two were no Debbie Downers. We grabbed an umbrella and our warmest coats and finished the shoot right around the corner from my house. Please give it up for Ja’Lisa she looks beautiful even when she’s frozen.

Terri - The pictures are beautiful. I had to go and get everyone in the office to look at them. We were all in bliss. Elton, you did a fantastic job!! Ja'Lisa and Jaye, as you can tell by the pictures that the weather had no affect on you two displaying your love. The weather (snow/rain/wind)actually enhanced your pictures. I think the best pictures are the ones you do not pose for; candid shots.April 2, 2009 - 7:22 am
