starting this month and over the next several months, i will be shooting strictly/mostly film for all my personal projects. i feel like this is going to be a road to some form of self discovery in my artistic field and is going to open me up to a whole different world of photography. i don't think i've ever been this excited about photographing and learning new things.

also, i'm 30 years old now. holy crap. i don't feel as old as 30 sounds. i need a change. i need inspiration.

i'm really bad about following through with favs and that kind of stuff, so, if you have recently fav'd my stuff, i am very grateful! (and thanks for checking out my stuff)

i really wish people would actually comment to say why they liked the photo or even why they hated it. feed back is good.

i suck at updates.

expect a big update on portraits in the next month. i'm really trying to work on portraiture AND i also get to start shooting for my friends at the theirongategallery. check out the site. order stuff from them. help me help them.

life has been crazy the past few months. i had my heart broken on christmas eve and, three months later, i'm finally feeling a bit more emotionally stable.

that being said, my motivation for shooting or doing anything has been slim to none. a lot of artist, i guess, live for pain and that's their inspiration, but i don't usually work that way.
i'm making progress with my life i guess you could say. family life is good, home life is good, work is.... decent. i'm still not out shooting as much as i would like, but that's going to change. i'm going to start lugging my camera with me on a daily basis, especially once i start riding my bike every where again. i don't want to miss a moment and just shoot everything.

i'm also looking into going back to school and rather than being a visual arts major, i'm going to look into art history. i really just want to learn as much as humanly possible about anything and everything. i'm looking forward to going back to school.

if you've been following my gallery, you would have noticed how my editing has changed. i'm still working on a "look" for my prints. adobe lightroom is my new favorite photo editing program. i still have a lot to learn with it, but it's fun still.

thank you to everyone that's been favoriting and/or adding my work to your collections. it really is flattering.
