I'm not dead
I have been so busy lately doing work on my computer, working my other jobs, catching up with friends, and…..well, living… that I have barely picked up my camera. Didn’t too too well keeping up with the 365 Project so I decided to just stop for now before I got too far behind. I have started a few photo books.. some for clients and others for myself. I plan on ordering a...
Old polaroids
I can’t wait till spring and summer so I can go outside!! I’ve been looking through all my old polaroids and film, now I wish I had some. It’s a fun change away from digital for personal work.
We have this tree in my front yard that I love. I have no idea what its called but it blooms so pretty every spring. It doesn’t stay this way for very long - but every time it looks...
It's been a while
Okay so it has been a really long time since I have done any conceptual photo work. I love doing this kind of stuff so much though most ideas come to me in the middle of actually taking pictures, which is probably why sometimes I prefer to use myself as the model instead of other people. I don’t want to feel like I am wasting their time when trying to think of ‘what to do next’.

What an exhausting day!
Well it’s no surprise that I am about ready to pass out and it’s only (just after) 7:30pm because having three “jobs” gets crazy! That’s for sure. I met up with Adam & Steph for their engagement/family portrait session early this afternoon for some fun in the snow and with their daughter Rileigh - she’s too cute even though it took forever for her to smile...
Fulton Wrestling
I went to the Fulton wrestling match this evening so I could take some pictures. This was the first time I have ever photographed a wrestling match.. as a matter of fact I have never really photographed any kind of sports event! I didn’t bring my flash even though I should have - I just forgot to make sure my batteries were charged ahead of time, so of course they were all dead. Not having...
Day 8 of 365
When it’s too cold and snowy to do photoshoots outside I get a little creative inside. This time of year I always start thinking about what to do for the Art Association Show that happens in May. Even though it’s still a while from now I already have a few things picked out for it.. and I love that you can enter up to 5 works, so I’m thinking this time around I will put one piece...
Painting not photography!
It’s pretty refreshing to get back into painting. I haven’t really made any new art for myself in over a year and I definately missed it! It’s so relaxing too.. So i borrowed a friend’s skate board and he’s letting me paint anything I want on it. So far I’ve got the background colors and textures and am starting some line drawings (well painting) of a couple...
Icy Winter
I haven’t actually gotten outside to take many winter nature shots yet because I don’t really enjoy being out in the cold at all, but hopefully the weather doesn’t get too crazy this weekend & the coming weeks so I can do fun photoshoots with site models! I have been getting so many ideas for personal projects and artsy shoots but they would work so much better if there was no snow. I’m...
From above or down below? 1/365
The sky was amazing today and I am so glad that it was sunny outside. I wish every day during winter was like this.. snow on the ground but not on the roads, sunny with pretty clouds, not so cold that you can’t go outside.
Starting a 365 Project today. One photo a day for 365 days. Hopefully I can keep up with this because I tried it once before but didn’t make it past 20 photos or...
First 2009 Wedding & new blog?!
I found this cool website for blogging, and am pretty much in love with it! Adam & Stephanie’s wedding was on Saturday.. Just a sneak peak of my favorite shots. 7 out of 1,200+…. Yeah, I got a lot haha, so I’ll be busy proofing everything for the next week or two.. it’s also time to go back to work for the first time in just about 2 weeks. Unfortunately being a...
