blahhhhh+

fall is almost always a really nice time of year, last year and the year before were awesome but this year it's just kind of stupid, stupid things and stupid people and people coming in and out (mostly out) of my life. i really wish i could just be content with my life for once but i guess i have this drive that i need to be this or that or whatever, i rush everything and i never slow down.

last weekend was the first weekend in months that i didn't have a single photo shoot and it was kind of nice but kind of too lazy, like i'm used to being busy and staying busy and a weekend without photos-what?

coming up this weekend i'm testing 3 girls, helen mitchell, katrina fitzpatrick, and karrington true (ford models). i'm really excited because the first two girls are going to be shot in a STUDIO on saturday, i have ideas already flowing and i hope i can execute them well. a lot of black and white and lace and tulle. ! sunday is the shoot with karrington, she's such a sweet girl and signed with ford, how cool is that?? we're shooting by the abandoned ice factory downtown and i think it'll be pretty fabulous. i want to shoot along the waterfront too, there's this nice green area with pine trees and i think it would make a nice backdrop :')

i know i have a lot of people to be grateful for- ryan, my mom, my few close friends and random strangers who take the time out of their day to write me fan mail (thank you). i just don't remember it enough. often times the good is pushed away by the bad and the bad things about photography just keep coming back!!! it's not cool!!!!!

but the number one person i have to thank for supporting me is ryan, he is the most inspirational person and i don't give myself enough time to think about him. we just kinda click! it's just this connection of art and loveliness that doesn't go away, we've been dating for almost 40 months (o...mg) and ryan's the one who really helped me jump start photography, and he's the one who tells me to keep going, tells me not to quit. i'm thankful for that. 

so i guess this is really a thank-you post for everyone who has supported me in the past 2-however-many years i've been taking photos. 
thank you guys.

xo,
