studio shoot

I used Macro lighting, so up close. I used the two strip lights for that.
I learned how to photograph water and how to more quickly adjust the focus manually.

light final

If i let myself sink into depression. I won’t be able to get out. And then I’ll be awfully unhappy. I just have to turn my face to the light and walk on. And trust that things will be all right.

-Marianne Faithfull

Final Practice

"But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun."

aja . favorite place

this is my favorite place and the little emotions and things that come with it. i love to walk in the woodsy area behind my house.

hands & feet

edits: boosted all the colors & cropped. these are my smallest cousins little feet. i love how cute 7 "fancy" he looked. his shoes were just so proper.  

 edits: B&W, darkened the blacks so the contrast was better. this is a necklace i got at my Omi's funeral from one of her friends. it says "shine" in the the note she explain why it said that. because my grandma always used to call me her sunshine & always said how much my smile shined bright. it also has the date of her passing on another charm.

 edits: boosted the colors a little & cropped it.  this is a photograph of my friend & angie's hands. i love this photograph because it represents to me the joining together of two of my closest relationships. how wonderfully the fit together & we all can now bond as friends.

edits: darkened the photo & cropped. this is a photograph of a little boy who my Godmother babysits. he was very ticklish & i loved the little lines & how his little toes would scrunch up when he got tickled.
