Guinea Pigs

Guinea Pigs

My guinea pigs! The white one is Hailey (mine) and the brown one is Molly (my brothers).
All the grass is starting to grow back from winter which means lots of outings with the piggies.
I meant to shoot more than I could this past weekend, but I'll be sure to get them done in the upcoming week.

Fairgrounds

Fairgrounds

Kameron and I went out to an abandoned fairgrounds and took pictures today.
Louisiana weather is bipolar. It can be 90º one day and 60º the next. That was the case for this photo shoot. It has been warming up with spring around the corner and has been very hot outside. But when we stepped out the door to go take pictures it was freezing cold. So we made a pit stop at goodwill before and found these combat boots for $6.00, which was a great find. I'll be shooting a lot more in the upcoming weeks, hope the weather by you is nice :)

Intricate Details

Intricate Details

For the past week I have been at sea on a cruise. It was the first cruise I have ever been on. It was extremely fun and worth the initial anxiety I had. We went to Jamaica, the Cayman islands, and Mexico. I've never been out of the country and going to three different countries in one week was very exciting. They were all beautiful places.

I could go on and on about my trip but I don't have to, because I put together a blog post about my experience along with a bunch of pictures I took while I was there. I hope you will have the time to look through them because I wanted to share them, but couldn't post them all on flickr.

Hope all is well :)

A Poetic Death

A Poetic Death

The most interesting things appear when I am completely lost for creativity.
I went out to shoot without any concepts or ideas and I came across this dead bird. I wanted to do something very simple with it to portray death as something beautiful, and natural. Every life comes to an end at some point and it isn't something taboo or morbid, but something very natural and even beautiful in its own way.

I am officially on Mardi Gras break, the Louisiana schools get off a week of classes.
So during this preceding week I'll be shooting a lot, and already have several shoots planned.

The Forager

The Forager

I spent my entire weekend outdoors.
It's nice and relaxing to go out and lay in the grass, walk along deer trails, or sit by a pond. All day Sunday my friend Jack and I did just that. We went not having any photo ideas and left with this picture. If you sit and relax long enough the ideas will come to you. Honor your creativity with patience.

We found the mushrooms along on the of deer trails (the most vivid mushrooms I've ever seen) and also found the stump, which has a carpet of green moss on it. We brought both back to the opening where we set up for this picture. Special thank you to Jack for helping with this.
