Up & Running

I finally feel like I have a second to take a breath and begin something that I've been dying to do FOREVER! I recently used another blog site but I was completely unhappy with everything the site had to offer. So here I am again, square one, post one.

I have three weeks of my summer college courses left and I am SO ready for break! The last few weeks are always so bitter sweet. I can just feel the sunshine & lazy days approaching however I fear the end of term because that means I have a LOT of work due. Who knew photography could be so intense!?

I must say that I do enjoy my classes though, two of which are film. Quite honestly I've never been interested in film & didn't actually become interested until last week. We've been working with large format 4x5 camera's & I find them to be totally fun! I have also been printing 35mm photographs in my color processing course & somehow I just love the tedious time put into printing each image. This is a pretty odd enjoyment for me considering that I have no patiences, however I do find myself getting lost in photography work quite often. I will begin a project & get so in to it that I soon realize five hours have passed. I guess this is how you know that you love what you do.

--On an even happier note my boyfriend & I, and a few friends will be adventuring off to Chicago next month! I am super excited & I am hoping to create some amazing pieces for my gallery showing in September at Pizza Gallery & Grill.

Will be posting photographs here soon.
