SecretSanta

This is WAY overdue, but I found these photos I took in Fall for a Secret Santa gift that was F.R.I.E.N.D.S. themed! Most of these are those that didn't make it to the final gift, but these hilarious people need to be seen and appreciated..

spring break!

Spring Break was SO great! I spent the week reading and relaxing with Lizzie and her family in Mazatlan, Mexico. I ate SO MUCH and just sat by the pool and read. I'm slowly working through pictures so I'll get them up soon hopefully, before all the craziness of spring terms starts.

Break was great to just get away for a bit and relax but I am also so happy to just be home and I get to see all of my other family here again. Though yesterday I had the realization, as I do before the start of every term, that I am back to do school and not just hang out with all my friends. But we can do it guys! Spring term! Whooo!

tilt-shift!

My tilt-shift lens just came in the mail!! This is going to take some getting used to with the manual focus and all but I'm excited to be good at this! SPRING BREAK (soon)!

sun flare

This week's I Heart Faces contest was "Sun Flare" and boy do I have sun flare! I love sunshine. Just looking at these pictures and staring outside at the pouring Oregon winter/spring rain makes me miss summer! I think that was one of the most fun things about summer: almost all my pictures had a lots of sunshine and flares and all sort of light. It got to a point where people would ask me why all my pictures had that washed out look of saturated sunshine.. But I love it. Its like capturing a little bit of magic in a picture.

almost there...

While sorting through stuff and trying to work on final papers and projects, I found these pictures from FALL retreat that my college group went on last term! Forgot all about these! Well, back to work! Hope you're not dying in final preparations.

BE STRONG, spring break will soon be upon us!
