Easter

I know it's past easter weekend, but I finally got all of my pictures off my camera. I had so much fun seeing Chance over his spring break. We even got to paint eggs with his sister and brother. Taking pictures with all that color was the best. After Chance left, I went to a couple concerts as a pick me up. This Easter was a good one.

To one of my favorite photographers...

The day I found Elliot Erwitt within the online gallery Soulcatcher Studios, I fell in love with his beautiful black and white images of France and Coastal America. His images always tell a story and evoke an emotion. If I can become half the photographer that Elliot was I will die happy. He pohtographed the likes of Marilyn Monroe and Jaqueline Kennedy. He even created one of the iconic civil rights photo- the colored drinking fountain. His portfolio bursts with genius. Here's a few of my most favorite photographs of his.

Keith and Brook

Last friday I got to take Keith and Brooke's pictures, it was so fun. Best wishes to you both!

Abstract

I'm working on trying to create an abstract series right now, and here's a taste! I hope you like it!

Pig Barns

This morning I had to finish my beacon assignments and so I went to take a picture of Edwin in the pig barns. Though I couldn't get my camera settings completely figured out, I came away with some good shots and my hair smelling slightly less than shower fresh :) Thank goodness for soap!

Happy Valentines Day

So, for the last two weeks I've been listening to Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros almost constantly because they're awesome. My favorite song of theirs also happens to be their biggest hit. Here's "home" with a few pictures of what my home looks like.

"home is wherever I'm with you"

Getting to know my new camera

Here's some pictures from some more adventures with my new camera! Being able to take pictures with it gives me such great joy, the only problem is that I don't actually own a lens for it yet. But that's ok. My dad and I will find one that I can afford some day!
