I FINALLY received my new lens the other day, and I've gotta say IT'S AMAZINGGGG! My love, Jake, was quite happy to be my subject.

I love sunshine and natural light....why must summer go away? :(

Albino Squirrel in St. Clairsville, Ohio

What started out as a pretty good day, soon became amazing! My dad and I went Christmas shopping and got a new TV for the living room and a few other items. We began to head home, and decided to take Rt. 40 instead of Interstate, since we were hauling a 60" TV in the back.

 While going through St. Clairsville, I happened to glance to my right and see an adorable little squirrel. A white one at that. I yelled for my dad to turn us around immediately, and he did so. This little guy was so friendly, he actually walked up to me, less than 8 feet from my hand!! 

Summertime

Obviously by now, we've all realized that summer is hiding for a while :/. With this thought in mind, as I sit snuggled in my blanket with a tall glass of chocolate milk, I feel it is necessary to bring back the warmth and sunshine of this past summer, even if it only is in photographs.

 Creepy, yet beautiful, Luna Moth

Senior Pictures: James Earliwine

Well, I did my first official shoot for senior pictures yesterday. It was for a good friend, James. I learned a few lessons from this too. If you've only been to the client's house once, and it was 2-3 years ago, driven there by another friend, in the dark....ASK FOR DIRECTIONS AHEAD OF TIME! 

Despite my nervousness about my first shoot, it went very well. I am very proud of my results, and wish every client behaved as well as he did. Especially when he came up with his own ideas and made fun of me for humming and having too much fun :)

 Sunshineee :D

Ohhh that face!! :)
