barns

With choosing a grad school, I have

been giving a lot of thought about

where I want to live and what type of 

person I want to be. 

I took a series of barns my junior year of college.

The idea was that a lot of this lovely barns 

were abandoned and going to be bulldozed for whatever 

shopping center "is needed."

I always dreamt about living in a barn or

a tree house.

I took these photos to remember my dream.

 

rainy days= post about attempted projects

it has been raining everyday. 

i have been researching more about grad schools and talking 

about it more. a lot of people seem some what upset that 

i maybe leaving in a year or less. 

i really like new orleans. it is my favorite city.  however,

i feel like i am losing myself in social aspects and not 

focusing on my art or myself. i hate to say this but i feel 

like i am dependent on school for numerous reasons.

another bad thing about new orleans is that the supplies

and facilities that i need (but can't afford) are not affordable

or even present. 

Above are two examples of projects that i have started but have not been 

able to finish due to lack of facilities/models.

one is a recreation of wedding portraits dealing with the 

conservative nature of marriage and the other is baptisms 

based on the new orleans spiritual church (both topics could honestly

be a whole page about)

september 1,2009- jamie lynn

Rowan was leaving. I had an inner debate on if I should

bring my camera out and take photographs

or 

if I should just enjoy the company of my friends.

I choose the later. 

However, my friend, Jamie Lynn did.

This is blog dedicated to ideas and work. 

I hope that with this blog, I am able to stay focused.

Some work will be apart of a series while others are

stand alone or are favors friends asked me to do.

With that being said, I introduce my daily photographs.

These pictures are taken with a Kodak Easy Share (not the best camera).

Ever since I left school, I feel like my composition, 

quickness, and my embracement of the camera

have left me. 

I hope that this excersize instills the things 

that I feel like I have lost.
