I don't consider myself a nature photographer by any means, at all. But when you're traveling through to Utah and Idaho, and sitting in the car for over 24 flippin' hours.... You can't help but look at the scenery. And it was actually relaxing editing these, when I'm editing a client's pictures I'm always.... (always) thinking 'oh my gosh what if they don't like it???!!' The flowers are always so easy to please :)



(technically my sister took this one. It was on her side of the car so I handed her the camera and demand she take a picture!)










Oh yeah..... Did I mention I'll be moving to the lovely Utah for college next September? I'm just starting to build up a client base here in Arizona... I'll definitely miss that. But hey. I'm sure there are plenty of people in Utah wanting pictures!!

Your Future



Last April, I said in this post how much I wanted to do my own photo project, but I didn't consider myself 'legit' enough to do a project of such magnitude. This year I decided that I'm gonna fake it till I make it, and do a giant photo project. And lemme tell ya. It's overwhelming, it's hard, it's confusing, it keeps me up at night, but I am SO excited to be working on this!

This being my Senior year in High School, I've been thinking a lot about my future, it's something I feel so strongly about, and formed in my mind this whole scheme to capture that feeling from different senior students around EVIT. It's called 'Your Future', and I'm taking certain students from around the EVIT campus, from about 10 different programs. I've been asking them about their future, then doing a photo shoot with them, trying to get that ONE shot that is THE shot. So far my subjects have made it quite easy on me! I've only done 4 of these shoots so far, and I have about 20 more to do by November (I'm crazy, I know), but I'm so excited about it, I couldn't wait to share just a rough sketch of what I'm working with. Comments are appreciated and welcome :)

I must say, I used to hate all types of studio photography before I actually tried it. Now I simply can't get enough! (by the way, isn't she just adorable and gorgeous at the same time?!)
