first upload in 2012! this is an old photo from may 2011 because right now i don't have anything new to upload..
2012 has been quite busy and it looks like it won't change anytime soon. it is also terribly cold outside so taking photos outdoors is quite freezing and i can't seem to motivate myself enough to go out and shoot. so i stay indoors and plan shoots for warmer weather

decided to upload another one because i really like how they turned out and i love my new hoodie, too :)

i'm going on a snowboarding trip to italy tomorrow so i doubt i'll upload anything until january 10th when i get back, but hopefully i'll be back with some new and interesting photos to upload here :)

taking self portraits can be just as good (if not even better) therapy as listening to music. or doing whatever else you like
this semester has been hard
it took me a while to realize that, but, when i look back at my actions the past few weeks, i understand that i'll need even more self portrait sessions, more listening to music and doing whatever i like to feel better and regain enough energy to get through another semester of school. the last semester of school for me.. until university.
unfortunately i've been sick the past few days so i haven't felt good enough to put myself in front of the camera, but hopefully that'll change soon because i'm trying to do everything i can to feel better! right now ginger tea is my best friend.
and the weather outside isn't making me smile, too. i know that a lot of people are happy about the winter (if it's even possible to call it a winter..) we have here, but not me. i don't like a winter with lots of rain, +10°C, for me winter is at least -10°C and lots of snow. i'm trying not to let it get me down and still have hope that january or february will bring snow, but the latest forecasts say there will be no snow in january either..

oh, and i found some great photoshop action (for free) by Siebe Warmoeskerken that i used when editing photos from this little shoot.. you can get them right here :)

merry christmas everyone! ♥

i'm not entirely happy about how this photo came out, i've edited it countless times and i don't like it anymore, so i'm quite sure i'll redo it sometime soon, because i absolutely love the idea and concept of this photo. it is quite relevant to my life right now so yeah..

my website!

i know i know i haven't uploaded anything for almost a month
it doesn't make me happy. i can say that i'll try to upload more often, but i can't guarantee anything.
lately i've been taking lots and lots photos, but they've all been of events, mostly at school
and i've been busy and unfortunaly photography hasn't been my top priority.. winter isn't my favorite season photography-wise because it gets dark early and i almost never get away from school early enough to be able to take some photos while it's still bright outside
fortunately for me, i went to engure with my boyfriend last weekend and was able to take this photo. also, winter break started today, so hopefully i'll take some more photos! i'm finally free to do what i want to do, to take photos that i want to take :)

and it's almost christmas, but it certainly doesn't feel like it.. we usually get quite a lot of snow in december, but this year it's been warm and without snow..
