Wedding








Here are some pictures from my cousin's wedding last month. It was a beautiful ceremony and a fun opportunity to snag some pictures.

Light












I like interesting angles and jaw dropping light. The first three photos are from my parents house. One night I was walking to my room and I noticed how on the wall a shadow of sorts of what's on top of the piano was projected on to the wall. I thought it looked pretty cool so I had to take pictures of it.

The fourth one is from my apartment. I was getting set for bed one night when noticed how the light came in through the shades. Again I had to take a picture of it.

The tear in my pant leg is an example of an interesting angle.

The shoe pictures were taken the same night as the wall ones. The natural light coming in was amazing. It was magic hour and I was walking up the stairs when I noticed it hitting my shoes. Once again I had to take some pictures!

October









Some more fall fun from around both the old neighborhood and the new!

Fall Photo Shoot






I did a photo shoot with little Miss Thang the other day because her great grandparents told her parents they'd pay the fee to enter her into a cute baby contest. Since she's one of my favorite things to photograph I happily took the pictures for them!

She's such a doll!

Reflection

I was taking pictures the other day when I unintentionally got a reflection shot. I got to thinking about other options for reflections I could try. I rounded up a mirror you put candles on and a daisy and got to work.  The book was the unintentional shot. I added a filter to one just for kicks. 

Smoke Screen



I got to thinking the other day how pretty smoke can be. I love its twists and turns. I love how it coils around something or bounces off a wall. It's amazing. Except, you know, that whole second hand smoke causes cancer thing. I took one for the team for my art the other day. I attempted to catch smoke at its finest. It was far more difficult then I imagined it would be. I'm going to try it again soon. 

And no. For anyone that knows me I didn't start a smoking habit. I needed something to try with and had no problems with wasting a few cigarettes!

Artsy


The first one of these was a mistake. I accidentally hit the flash before I took the picture. I thought it was sort of cool looking so I took a few more with the flash on.
