Editing

Hi, I'm still alive. Just not much to say lately...

I'm in the process of editing some engagement pictures I took over the weekend. I'm pretty pleased with them. The fall colors really do make a beautiful backdrop. I could still use some pointer with my camera and the forever changing lighting settings. I just can't get it right. I plan to take them over to Carla tomorrow to show her. I hope she is happy with them. That's all that really matters when it comes down to it. I shouldn't be so hard on myself. I have some other work lined up and it would really do me good to have some confidence.

Back to touching up and watching Grey's Anatomy.

LPS Update

I just realized that the usual backdrop where I photograph my collection is now covered by a poster. A sweet Ralph Steadman poster, but nonetheless, I had to set up a new makeshift spot in the living room to photograph. They're a little different.. shiny and reflective. Enjoy.

Phew.. Still a few more to share before I'm all caught up!

I'm also working on a fun little project to display my collection. ;) More about that later.

Unparty Party

I think we are finally over the rain. It had rained.. for days, I swear. We had to cancel the Halloween party we had planned to kick off the first Saturday in October last weekend. So instead of sitting around bummed out last weekend, I decided to have some close friends over for a little laid back get together. So here are a few photos from last Saturday. I'm glad most of my friends don't mind being in front of the camera.

Last night, Michael and I met up with Paul and his girlfriend, Laura, and headed to Connellsville to hang out with Russ and his lovely roommates and friends. It was a good time. It seems like on Saturdays it is becoming a ritual to spend time with friends. It reminds me of many of weekends when I was younger. I love it so much.

As soon as I can get myself moving, I am going to get ready to go shoot some engagement photos for my cousin, Carla. It will be nice to check out the mountains and see how all the leaves are changing. Fall is so beautiful around here. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little bit nervous about taking  pictures, but what can I do? I'll just go with the flow. I'm sure they will turn out great.

Pinch me!

Sorry for the lack of post the last couple days. I've been pretty busy.

Friday I took off work because I had planned on going to see Primus with Laura that evening at Stage AE. Somehow it all worked out even more perfectly because on Wednesday morning I had found out Leftover Crack was playing at Altar Bar on Thursday night!

Here's a couple Instagrams I snapped.. I love my camera, but unfortunately, I'm rarely allowed to take it into venues with the detachable lens and all. I did get a couple quick couple minute videos. I'm sure they are bad quality all around but perhaps I'll post 'em later because I know looking back on them will bring a smile to my face.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. So far so good over here. Tomorrow afternoon I get to shoot some engagement pictures and I'm off work Monday, also! Ahh.. niiiice.

Maestro

Maestro after a morning bath. :)

Maestro does not get enough attention on my blog. Obviously, he's tricky to photograph. Uncovering Maestro's cage is the highlight of my morning routine. I love how perky he gets when I open the blinds and the sun is starting to peek in through the windows. It's admirable. I love to hear his beautiful singing. I just love this little birdie. My pets really brighten up my day..

Students

These photos are from Open House way back in the beginning of September. Yeah, I know, I thought they looked like sweet little children, too... ;) Ha ha. Kidding.. I think. It's hard for me to even say this after a long, hard 8 hours of work, but they do have their moments when they make me smile.
