My friend Christina and I have been talking about having a photo shoot for months now and we kept putting it off all summer. So we figured since I am going to school next week and she leaves the country soon to go abroad for a year, we should get it done! I took so many beautiful pictures that it was hard to choose only a few to put up. We went to three different locations, all within my own town:) here are a few pictures from that. I will post some more of them later!



Thanks for checking out my blog! As always feel free to leave feedback and follow my blog!

"skipping in my cowboy boots...";part 2 of hannah's photo shoot

 Hannah and I went to a different park after the first to do another photo shoot (it was a gorgeous, yet hot, day!). here are some pictures from part 2...

I am about done posting pictures I've taken throughout the summer which means my personal challenge to practice photography more starts now! I am so excited to start. Please give me any sort of feedback whether it be praise or constructive criticism! and feel free to "follow" my blog:) thanks!

"skipping in my cowboy boots"; a photo shoot with Hannah

I am so lucky to have friends who are so willing to spend a few hours randomly to help me practice my photography! One day a few weeks back, Hannah and I decided to have a photo shoot at a park near my house. These are a few pictures from part 1 of that photo shoot...

she was  just joking when she posed like this, but I actually like this picture a lot

if music be the food of love...

the organ was crazy big and so pretty

I love old doorways...

I have a lot of interests: photography is one of them-music is another. I come from a very musical family and because of this, music has played a very big part in my life (no pun intended). Every summer for the past 5 years, I have worked at a summer orchestra camp as a student coach for children grades 4-8. It is one of the highlights of my summer every year. At the end of camp each year we have a concert; this year we had it in an old church... it was gorgeous. Here are a few pictures of the venue.

summer nights...

Hannah and I never waste an opportunity for a photo shoot!

welcome!

hello there! welcome to my blog:) I am not much of a blogger at all but I am creating this blog in hopes of challenging myself to become a better photographer through practice and patience. I think that if I have a reason to be taking pictures more (aka to update this blog), I will learn more about my camera and about photography in general. I am not a professional in any way,I just love taking pictures. I see this blog as a kind of map, documenting my progress through pictures as I learn more about something I love. thank you for joining me on this journey! enjoy!
