my sister went to her first prom this weekend, and she was kind enough to let me snap some pictures before she left!

you dream of colors that have never been made
taken the day after our school’s chalkfest. believe it or not, this one is SOOC (straight out of camera!) i have been playing lots with my new D60 (thanks to the ever amazing fiancé-drop him a line and tell him how great his taste in cameras is!) which has opened up a whole new can of worms-fun focusing experiments, weird angles, and the like. expect to see more soon!

new beginnings.
last week was a crazy rollercoaster of emotions, and i found myself just striving to make it to the weekend. turns out, the weekend was a little crazy too, but in the best way possible. on saturday, around 9 AM, the most amazing man in the world asked me to marry him, and i said yes! here are a couple of photos from the weekend.
a recreation of the proposal, right after it happened. yes, the ring box is upside down…because that is what happened the first time. how adorable is he?
we walked around asheville a bit, just trying to savor the moment. we were still in disbelief…i still am!

a new dress.
life is changing in many ways, and this blog is one thing that has fallen out of focus. at the urging of a dear friend, i do want to start utilizing it again. in order to keep things interesting, however, i think i will change things up a little.
1. i will endeavor to post at least one picture whenever i can, whether that be once a day or once every couple of days or even once an hour.
2. i am lifting my self-imposed “no editing/SOOC” rule, if only because i have found renewed creativity using photoshop. i will, however, only do this to pictures i myself take.
3. have fun. this has felt laborious at times, and i never EVER want to lose my love for being behind the viewfinder. if this begins to happen, i promise myself that i will shut this site down.
so, without further ado, my first photoshopped picture for this site, of my friend rachel.
