I finally was able to have my roll of film from spring break developed. Having never shot colored film before in my Canon Rebel EOS ii, I was really excited to see the results. I was not disappointed.
My week was spent with hardly any work and lots of walking around Jupiter, Florida. I caught up with family and enjoyed the week. Now that I'm back to the grind (and final push of school), I really appreciate...

Behind the Scenes: Global Eye
I enjoy projects that challenge me, be it a technical challenge, a mental challenge, or a mixture of the two. It is why I often spend hours in the preproduction phase just working out the idea itself be it for a photograph series, painting, or a time based piece as I did recently for Global Eye.
Originally an assignment for my 4D class, this piece spawned primarily from a dream I had after watching...
Behind the Scenes: Environmental Portraits
I had been looking forwards to this assignment for a while in my Lens Based Communication class. The assignment was to capture 6 images of individuals in their environments. It proved to be an assignment of growth and portfolio building for me, and I tremendously enjoyed going out into the world to capture people in their respective worlds.

Spring Break
I cannot relate what a solid week of relaxation can do for an individual. Having spent the last week bumming around poolside or by the ocean, I can safely say that my batteries are recharged and I'm ready to go for the second half of the semester.
As much as I love adventures and action packed travels, there is something refreshing about taking a step out of the fast lane and removing one's self from one's own life. I find...
More Lazy Days Ahead
It is finally Spring Break, and after the week I've had, I definitely deserve the break part. I've made the trip across state to visit my aunt and uncle and will be relaxing on the beach or poolside for the upcoming week.
I will be shooting more photography, however it is most likely going to be film as I am currently without a digital camera. So, I've pulled out the trusty 35mm and sold my soul for film (seriously, 4...
Mornings of Things to Come
Embarking on a 6 different portrait series makes me feel at home again within photography, so starting out with a self portrait just felt natural. And what was even more fantastic about this shoot in particular is that I was able to roll out of bed, set up the tripod, and plug away at the first portrait.
I showed the series to my mother who often likes looking at my work and of course her first reaction was "I...
Nighttime Walks in Downtown Sarasota
I love walking at night, so when I got a less chilly night and some free time on Monday, I took advantage of the bus system to go downtown. Naturally I brought along my trusty camera and 50mm to see what sort of images I could scrounge up.
Being a woman walking alone isn't something I usually think about, if I'm honest. I'm used to being somewhat of a loner-I greatly enjoy people and being in good company, however taking...
