Sunday, July 25, 2010 at 9:03PM Brad and I had a 1920's themed party this year to celebrate our birthdays.
More to come later...
1920s, Nikon D3s, birthday party, video Thursday, July 1, 2010 at 12:50AM I shot Haylee & Kyle's beautiful wedding on June 5 in Memphis. It was my first wedding to shoot with my Nikon D3s, and I'm loving everything about that camera--especially how fast it is. It doesn't miss a shot.

I received First Place in the Fine Art/Personal Work in PDNedu's 2010 Student Contest for my "Characters Out of Context" Series I did last year. 2 of my images were published in PDNedu, and five of the series can now be seen in an online gallery here.
In addition to all of this, PDN selected my image of the cow in the grocery store as the PHOTO OF THE DAY today! I am completely honored by all of this and a little in shock! You can view it here.
Here's the image in print (from my iPhone):
and a better version of the actual page in print:
Here's a screen grab from PDN Photo of the Day:
At the beginning of the month, I went on a girls trip with my mom and sister to Philadelphia, and we stopped by SPE Conference to see my prints on display!
Here's me with them:
And my mom (in case you didn't know, she's the person inside the cow suit!)
I created these images as my final project in Studio Craft last spring, and I just want to give a huge thanks to my teacher Melinda Hurst Frye for encouraging me on this project and to Jenny Kuhla for encouraging me to submit it! SCAD has been such an unbelievable experience for me, and the growth I've experienced has a lot to do with my teachers and their encouragement.
On a similar note....In the midst of all the excitement and receiving emails from PDN about all of this, I almost overlooked that this series was also selected for publication in PDN's 2010 Photography Annual, in the Student Category! That will come out this summer, so I'll let you know more about it then.
Sunday, March 28, 2010 at 8:10PM I spent the past week in Port-au-Prince, Haiti as part of a 38 member medical missions team. I'll blog more about the trip later, but here's one photo for now.
