Yours Truly | Nikon D300s

I finally did it! I upgraded my Nikon DSLR.

In celebration, here are some photos of yours truly – since that’s about as much shooting as I’ve done since the D300s arrived.

Note: My blog posts may have slowed recently, but I can assure you, the wheels in my head have not! In the near future, you can expect to see new projects including some artful photo series’ and video playfulness. I’m not totally solid on the concepts yet, but I never am till it happens. We’ll see!

Friends

I found this card today at a thrift shop and was like, “That’s ME!” The one on the left… doesn’t she look like me?

Who am I kissing though? I tried to think of someone and couldn’t figure out who she reminded me of. But… I’ve settled on this: she represents all of my friends that are so so special to me (girls AND boys!). Recently, I’ve noticed that I’m not as affectionate as I used to be*. My insecurities take over and I stay in my own personal space. I want to give more hugs and kisses! Maybe the universe is trying to tell me something? All I know is that I wanted to climb into that picture, wear those exact same clothes, and step onto my tippy-toes to kiss my good friend who loves kitties. (Then, after walking around in the Shire a bit, we’d head back to our Hobbit houses.)

*This does not include my daughter, Katie. She gets TONS of smoosh-her-face-kisses.

I found out today that this beautiful mom-to-be is a mom now! Last night they had their baby girl! And hopefully I’ll be taking some newborn pics ;)

Soon-to-be husband and wife + a mule + a beautiful location + a pitch fork =

And of course…

I’ll be shooting their wedding in April 2010. Can’t wait!
