Lately, I feel like my work has been slightly uninspired, repetitive, and forced. So I did a little gallery clean up, and got rid of the pieces that I wasn't too fond of.

My goal from now on is to submit only my best to deviantART. I have a page for all of my photos, though! So if you want to keep track of everything I snap... [link] c:

My four most recent photos [Take me home, My Papa's Car, They're hiding, Till There's Nothing Left] were experimental, and I love them all. Some people have told me they're very reminiscent of =Pretty-As-A-Picture's series "after dark", but it is pure coincidence. I'm sorry if I offended anyone.

Anyway.
I'm going to start doing conceptual pieces again, and more self portraits. Cause you know you love my face. :d
I have a photoshoot with the beautiful Maesy this Wednesday, so expect to see those photos up soon.

I hope you all enjoy my upcoming pieces.

Ta ta for now!

There's only about a month left of summer. Let's make the most of it! c:

On Monday, I had a photo session with my dear friend Becky (~aisu-isme). I got some beautiful shots of her (not that it was difficult). You can see the series here: [link] Thank you!

And I don't know if anyone has noticed lately, but I'm editing my photos a lot less. I guess since I've been using my papi's amazing 40D, I haven't had to compensate for lack of quality with photoshop. I'm actually really pleased with the results of my minimal editing, and I hope you guys are too.

I'm also trying to do photo series now. Of course, I'm still going to produce individual, independent images, but I love the idea of illustrating a single concept with a multiple images. Below are my series so far.

So I had a photoshoot with Maesy, Monica, and Stina yesterday. The new photos aren't as getting as much attention as I'd like, so I would really like to know what you guys think!

Next week is going to be busy and full of photoshoots.
Ellyn and Lindsey are coming home.
I'm so excited.
