Taylor and Brianna!

I shot an engagement last weekend for my two friends Taylor and Brianna! They are so adorable together and I could not be happier for the amazing life they're going to have together. We had a lot of fun shooting and their hilarious personalities showed through in their photos. Congrats Taylor and Brianna!

Bargain shopping at its best

So yesterday I had a little shopping spree at the thrift store (DI). I've been needing some new pieces for my wardrobe for a little while, but being a poor college student trying to save up money for camera equipment, buying the things I want is nearly impossible. So, to the DI it was. Here are the items I purchased:


Cotton shirt: $4.00

White woven belt: $1.00

Will leave both items as purchased.


Jean skirt: $6.00

Woven belt: $1.00

Cute toenails: Priceless

Will most likely cut skirt to mid-knee and hem, possibly stitching something cute into it somewhere ;)


Jean material dress: $5.00

Studded belt: $1.50

Will probably cut dress to about knee level (possibly slightly above) and hem. Might also cut the sleeves or the neckline to make it a deep V. Belt needs to be superglued, it’s falling apart a little bit but is still really cute.

Jean jacket: $6.00

Golden rose brooch (Walmart): $1.98

Black maxi beach dress: My own

Considering cutting the sleeves of the jacket because they’re a little tight on my arms, but otherwise leaving it pretty much as is. I’ve been wanting a jean jacket for months now and this one was a steal.

Leather cross-body bag: $4.00

Feather brooch: My own

I am so in love with this bag. Like, I cannot even tell you how much. I have been wanting a nice, sturdy cross-body purse for ages now, and this one is amaaaazing. Definitely a great purchase.


All in all, just a great day for thrifting ;)

Day 13: Sunset

There was the most beautiful sunset tonight, and I could've died looking at it.

And thus concludes my photo-a-day journal for my color photography class. I hope you will be able to look at things in a whole new way, as I have come to do through photography.
I hope you enjoyed my 13-day photo journal :)

Day 12: Horse

I saw this horse and fell in absolute love with it, and of course I had to take a picture.
I used to ride horses when I was a lot younger, and every now and then, I get the urge to ride them again.
Horses are such beautiful, magnificent creatures, and there is really nothing quite like them in the world.

Day 11: Ring

I've been really bad at uploading all the images lately, so this is day 11 of my 2 week photo journal.
This is my roommate's ring that I looooove to no end, and I am contemplating stealing it from her.
Yes, so.

Day 10: Mirror

Didn't do too much on Friday.
Obviously.

Day 9: Head Drawing

Thursday night was my head drawing class, which was pretty fun.
Nothing too exciting to report, I just brought my camera with me to take pictures of the model for finishing up the drawing later.
I really enjoy the class, and I think it's a lot of fun to render heads so realistically (or try to anyways, in my case). I think there's something about drawing people that I have always enjoyed, and this class allows me to have a lot of artistic creativity.
