I am SO excited to show you guys what I’ve been working on! I’ve always wanted to do a behind the scenes video/behind the scenes pictures, but I never get to because it’s almost always just me shooting. Last week’s theme for the 52 Week Project was fairytales. And I instantly knew that I wanted…
Last week’s theme for the 52 Week Project was long exposure. And as much as I wanted to cheat and pick another theme, I didn’t. I wasn’t sure I could do it, especially because I tried it before and couldn’t do it. I realized that I failed the first time because my ND filter wasn’t…
Last week’s theme for the 52 Week Project was cemetery. I was really excited to do it but then I realized that I can’t actually visit a cemetery and even if I did, there are no headstones in our cemeteries. So I thought I’d just do something in our backyard, and I saw some small…
It usually doesn’t take me more than a week to read a book, of course it always depends on the book and how big it is. But for the past week I’ve been reading Haruki Murakami’s new book, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage, and it’s a wonderful book. So being in that…

Last week’s theme was supernatural, and I was so excited to do something a little darker or creepier than usual. I’m a huge fan of the show, Supernatural, and, call me weird but I love the scenes with all the demons and possessions. Surprisingly though, I’m a chicken when it comes to horror movies and…
Last time I posted a picture for the 52 Week Project, I said that I’d do two new pictures to make up for being late with the last one. The themes I chose were phobia and growth. I was planning on making it something like a part 1/part 2 thing, but then while brainstorming I…
I’m finally back from Malaysia! It was a wonderful trip and I’ve got a lot of pictures to show you guys. But first, the picture for the 52 Week Project. I mentioned getting kicked out of the park for shooting in my last post, and I didn’t get to shoot extra pictures to expand the frame. I…
I’m in Malaysia and it’s absolutely beautiful. I’ve been trying to spend more time with my family so I’m a little slow with my photography. I shot the new image for the 52 Week Project a day before traveling and I’ve been working on it on and off for a few days. The theme was…
I’m home! I got back this morning and my sleep is all messed up but it’s good to be home. Friday night, we leave to Malaysia! I’m excited to take pictures there. Last week’s theme was doors/windows. I had three ideas I wanted to shoot but didn’t get a chance to do them all, the…
Being in Egypt has given me time to reflect on things. It’s probably because I don’t always have access to the internet, and most of the time I’m out. Not in a mall or anything, just outdoors. I love being outdoors. And it gets cold at night! It’s awesome. I’ve also been reading a lot;…
