“Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun.”

And, I’ve done all those things.

Seeking approval for your personal vision will only push you farther away from yourself. Be confident in your art & in yourself. No approval necessary.

Slowly easing back into self portraiture.

Self portraits taken on 5D Mark II, 50mm 1.8.

Experimenting with a Hoya multi-vision 49mm…

On a side note, my blog will be getting a makeover soon! It’ll be more personalized and special :) More on that later though!

…your mouth is poison your mouth is wine
you think your dreams are the same as mine

I don’t love you but I always will
I don’t love you but I always will
I don’t love you but I always will
I always will

I wish you’d hold me when I turn my back
well the less I give the more I get back
your hands can heal, your hands can bruise
I don’t have a choice, but I’d still choose you

I don’t love you but I always will…

CONSTELLATION!

I am really excited to share these photos. I was sitting at work, itching to get home and BLOG!

About a week ago, Sara, who is a friend from college, contacted me to see if I was interested in photographing her band’s first show at The Grape Room in Manayunk.  And, of course I said yes! I brought some friends along and we had a great time! This was actually my first time, officially photographing a show. Would I do it again? ABSOLUTELY! :) A big thanks to Sara for giving me this opportunity, thanks for having me.

Constellation folks!
