having tea with my sisters

a self portrait and a thank you

 sometimes when i run out of things to shoot i shoot myself.  it has nothing to do with vanity just simply that i love photography so much that i need something to shoot everyday.  and my siblings hate it when i point the camera at them so i find myself pointing it at myself.  you might think me weird, but i'll still think you followers are awesome and i just want to say: thank you for all your encouragement. you all have really made me feel confident and that i'm not just a silly girl with a camera who thinks she's a photographer. and thank you for that.

much love

Anna Faith brand//guest post

The other day I had the idea of doing a little branding experiment. I have been struggling with it myself, so I asked my besties for a little assistance. We are making a brand of each other.(on each others blogs) The way we see each other. I thought it would be interesting to see what others think of my brand. Here is my perspective on Anna's brand. The first photo reminds me a lot of Anna, because of the colours, the coat and the posture. I have seen her walk like that a lot before. The 2nd photo.. Need I explain? Anna A D O R E S  arrows. She decorates her walls, blog and arms with them ;) The last photo is because of the moccasins. I think she would be content to wear moccasins forever if they would stay on when she runs. :) So whatcha think?  I hope I got this right Anna :D Photos from Pinterest.  

   love you anna!

It took me a little while, but I finally decided on these three. Her being my sister makes it easier too! So, the top one: is a lot like Anna I think, she has always love guns and that cool stuff. The second one: My sisters and I have always been into horses and being cowgirls, and Anna loves to ride. The third one: Is more of Anna's style...she'll wear PJ's all day if we let her, and she refuses to wear anything that is not extremely comfy ;)
Love you Anna! Your the best sister anyone could ask for!

much love

a photo that tells a story can be alone

 

a photograph cant tell a story unless the moment caught really had a story.

but, these photographs themselves do not have a story. this shot i set up. but each of the things in the photographs have stories.
-the Kodak camera
the plaid jacket
and the girl.
i'm not going to tell the story behind these things. photos that tell a story without words. that's what i'm pursuing to learn in photography.
photos that don't tell a story need good words written below. but, a photo that tells a story can be alone (without words).

with love

life is a daring adventure

this last photo was taken by my wonderful little sister Callah. please stop by her blog here

life is such a beautiful thing to photograph.
sometimes life doesn't feel beautiful. and maybe it's not at the moment, but i think life is meant to be a beautiful journey. or maybe beautiful is the wrong word, but as Helen Keller said "life is either a daring adventure or nothing." so maybe a daring adventure is better.
you never know what will come tomorrow only what came yesterday.

photos without words or words without photos

photos without words or words without photos are both not as good without each other but i really don't have any words to say right now only photos show.

i hope you enjoy them anyway.
