Monday Morning Blues

I'll tell you right now, I am NOT a morning person. It takes me a long time to wake up, no matter how much sleep I had the previous night. Mornings don't do a lot for me - they're typically cold and I've never been a fan of breakfast, even as a child. I get most of my energy in the evening, after 7pm. That's when I am the most creative and the most alert. This isn't to say I slack off during the day, but I would be a much better person if all my interactions with people happened after 7. I do envy those morning people, however. They seem to be the people with their shit together and the happiest. Perhaps I could train my body to become a morning person? The first step would probably be to stop working on blog posts after midnight...which I am doing at this very  moment. Hey look, it's Tuesday!

Alex / Smoke Break

These shots are fun because they were just test shots for makeup for an upcoming shoot that never actually came to fruition.

Joshua / Spring Cleaning

Josh went to school here in Springfield, but moved to New York after graduation to pursue his career in the theatre. I was so excited that we managed to get together on one of his visits back home. It was after dark, and I normally prefer to shoot in natural light seeing as I'm an amateur and still learning. But this was a fun experiment with flash photography, and I like how these turned out.

Matt / Warm November Vibes

It's been such a warm november, if it weren't for the leaves on the ground you wouldn't hardly believe it was autumn. I'm not complaining though, I want to hold onto these warmer days while they last. I'm not a fan of the snow or ice at all.

Joe / Editorial Shoot

This dude is fucking cool. Joe studies fashion and creates a lot of his own clothing, and kicks ass at it.   These photos were a joint collab between he and I to showcase his style and some pieces he made. Totally stoked with how they turned out! We'll be shooting again sometime soon!

Joseph / Shooting on a Sunday

Appologies for the long hiatus, things have been crazy busy. That's good though. I love these photos Joseph and I got while hanging out one Sunday. The impromptu photos seem to always be my favorite. Enjoy! Much more to come soon!

Matt / First Day of Fall

Who the hell isn't excited about the first day of fall? I must admit that it didn't quite feel like fall - it was 92 degrees out and Matt and I both received multiple mosquito bites.
