Okay...so its been a while...

and i'm really sorry about that!! life has been really stressful and busy lately, but hey i guess thats all part of growing up!

okay so interesting things going on in my life....ummm....well i went home to my loving family about two weeks ago and it was amazing. i loved being back and relaxing and seeing them all. also, and here is the fun part, i got to shoot some pictures of my sister that i have been itching to do! here is a few:

i also took some pictures at the campground, i thought they were different and beautiful in their own right.

then my week got crazy. i had a big midterm critique for Large Format Photography on the 28th and all of my negatives kept messing up. i liked 2 of the 7 that i had on the board...yeah. But Lynn, my professor, said i just need to work on it and i am just scratching the surface of what i want. Anywho...i'm going to try and scan some of my photos from that class or take pictures of them to put on here later because they are so different from my normal work.

i am SO EXCITED for spring break. I'm heading home this friday! YAY! a whole week to take pictures and not have classes!

oh and all you crafty/fashionista/hipster people out there! i found an amazing blog today! go check out A Beautiful Mess!! i'm kind of obsessed....

well thats all for now! ill update you when i get home!
much love,

Hello everyone!
So I want to say that I was inspired to create this blog because I saw my friend Michelle Miller's blog {here}. I saw that she was sharing about her photos to everyone, and about her life and the changes she is experiencing and how she feels about the world. Upon seeing this I thought about how i wanted to do the same. So here it is!!

This past weekend was really great. I was able to hang out with a friend, Katie, who i have not seen recently. I spent all of Saturday with her, on a photo adventure. Pretty much it consisted of us carting 3 cameras around Toledo and getting lost. Although the lost part was hectic, overall it was relaxing. I was able to work with my 4x5 i got from the school. So here are some pictures from our adventures!

these are some pictures my friend Katie took of me and my 4x5
