I can appreciate traditional photography techniques, and I can appreciate creative composition.
I believe I was conceived in the wrong era, so intrigued by sixties and seventies fashion. All these things considered, I share with you the work of Neil Krug (i swoon):

Got a bunch of fun pieces from F21 yesterday.
The flats in the bottom left frame are perfect for my tattoo to peek thru. =)
Plus they are super comfy .. then, the fringe vest? Um, every girl should have one in their closet, timeless!


My lovely and creative sista Marissa made me these feather earrings for Christmas, LOVE them!!
Girls, get them tools out and start CREATING!

No Direction.

New Year's Resolutions:
1) Accept Grace & Give Grace.
2) Take amazing photographs, keep pressing forward in art & craft.
3) Take the time to enjoy Hawai'i with friends and family.




I absolutely DIE for these photos. It's kind of how I daydream my life to be.

I believe 2010 will be full of exciting new transitions, LOVE, amazing friendships, beautiful quality time with family, quiet time with the Lord, fun art-making opportunities, and freedom from unnecessary stress and worry!!

I pray you all have the best of years in twenty-ten!
