Mr. Eaves

Mrs. Eaves is one of my favorite typefaces from Emigre, and now they have Mrs. Eaves. I am so excited and I can’t wait to get the font. Isn’t it lovely!

Murphy North Carolina

A few weeks ago I decided to join Kay and David at their lakehouse for the weekend in Murphy NC. It’s about 2 hours and 20 minutes from Atlanta, so it is not a bad drive at all. Honestly, the drive was a photographers haven. I saw so many shots along the way. What a beautiful day it was too! The morning fog was so thickI just had to stop and take a few pictures. Here are my favorites from the weekend.

They have a beautiful 1940’s Hacker Kraft Wooden Boat that is jsut to die for. I fell in love! That is me driving the boat above. What a great weekend.

Felix

Last week we had the pleasure of having Felix Sockwell come to school and do a seminar. Super funny, charismatic, and witty. I love his posters and icons. He’s a great designer, and to top things off, I even won two of his posters. Here are some of my favorite designs of his.

Miles Davis

Fountain of Youth for Golf Digest

Icons for TIME

The awesome poster I won

Deconstructing Dumbo, part of the GOP100 Book (I Love this by the way)

Anyways, I also got the pleasure and great opportunity to photograph him. Luckily when I met him I know it would be a fun shoot and this is what we came up with.

Here is the link. And be sure to check out his work here. Thanks again Felix.

The light of day.

Everytime I babysit for Audrey there is a certain point in the day when the light comes through the kitchen window so beautifully and I always want to take a picture. Last week I finally caught a shot I liked. Here it is. I love light!

Things to smile about.

This morning I went to a garage sale that was supposed to have tons of photography equipment, and what do you know, it had practically nothing exept for a lens baby. Disappointing! However, I knew of another garage sale nearby that I decided to go to, and I got so lucky. I found this adorable shabby medicine cabinet for my sister for her new place. I can’t wait to give it to her, and it was only $30. Great find!!!

Is that not so cute! Aside from that, once a week or more I babysit Audrey and if the weather is nice we usually go to the park. She pronounces “the park” like a new jersey gal. It is so funny! Audrey loves loves loves to watch Yo Gabba Gabba and the silly hats, so when she got in my car and found a hat I had in there for a prop she decided to try it on. She is the cutest thing ever!

That’s it for now.

July

I photographed Charley’s 1st Birthday two weeks ago and it was so much fun. Kids are hilarious!!! And until I get all the photos up, I thought this was adorable of Charley with her birthday hat on.

Also, I found a new photographer I really like. Josh Goleman. I stumbled across his work and since then I subscribe to his blog. He shoots a little bit of everything, but here are a few of my favorites of his work. Be sure to check him out.

He makes me want to have a really vintage wedding. I love his work!

My New Lens!

Recently I bought the Canon 24-70mm lens and everyday since it arrived I have used it. It is my new baby and my new love. Here are some random shots from trying it out.

The Staircase up to my room.

The sunset on my street.

A shot of Matthew I have always wanted to at least try. I need more light, but it’s definitely dramatic.

Things around Matthew’s house. His remote to his x-box.

QT cups are always at his house.

The sunlight on Matthew’s porch right before we went out to go take sunset pictures.

My architectural shots.

Anagram.

Sunset around Emory.

Matthew under a building lamp.

I will post more later, but for now, that is all I have. Good night.

It’s Updated!

I just updated my site last night! I am working on getting a better website, but for now, this will do. Check it out.

Weddings Bells!

I have gone to 4 friend’s weddings in the past 6 months, plus weddings I have photographed, my closet is full of bridesmaids dresses, I design wedding invitations, and therefore I sometimes find myself reading weddings blogs, researching weddings, reading about weddings, and so on. My life is full of weddings, and yet I still love weddings. I guess it is safe to say one day I will be fully prepared for my own big day. But I found this the other day on a blog and I absolutely love it. This is by far the coolest personal invitation I have ever seen.

Anyways, I just love it! If you want to check out the full invite and story, click here.

I just wanted to share my new cool find.

5th Quarter

Tomorrow at 7 I am officially done with my 5th Quarter. Really scary! I can’t believe I only have three more now. Things have been so crazy busy, but I promised myself I would post more work on here and especially since I need to desperately update my website. So here goes, new stuff!

Molly and Matt’s E-Session

To see my favorites so far, check them out here.

Some of my favorite images from the quarter.

Check out this cool shoot Rachel Anscher art directed for her Small Bites Magazine. I love this shot!

Some images from my great class with Michael West.

Here are some of my favorites from Zach’s Location Lighting Class. I had some great classes this quarter.

I really do have so many I could post, so I will try and post more over the break. But for now, those are my newest pieces. I am off to bed, I am lacking sleep this week and I have critique tomorrow.
