Blogging has done a lot of things for me. I was thinking about this last night--I simply wouldnt be the person I am today if I hadnt started this blog. If I hadnt started taking so many photos for th...
(^I finally decided to play around with my polaroid camera the other day. It turns out my film is really expired, but there is something so fascinating to me about simply seeing it develop before my ...
I mentioned ages ago that I was working on putting together a portfolio website for my photos, but I never got around to posting a link to it when I finished it. Anyway, HERE it is now. In a way, it ...
I havent really done any outfit posts at all lately (Im out of practice!), mostly just because I havent felt that it was the best use of my time. However, that doesnt mean Ive been dressing like a sl...
Sometimes my friends call me up and theyre all like "Amelia, were going hiking" and I forget pertinent questions like "where?" and "for how long?" and just get in the car and ...
This year has been a fantastic year, but--theres always a "but," isnt there? But I regret how jaded Ive become. I remember winter 2009 when I took my first photography class, everything was s...
Its my birthday. Today I am 18 years old. Pretty much like every other day so far. Its cloudy and generally gross out today, but recently its been much sunnier. These pictures are from what I thought...
I watched West Side Story last night (exhausted after my first long day on the job) and while I cant say its my favorite musical ever, I definitely enjoyed it. What distressed me while looking for fi...
Im bothered by the continual push for newness. It seems like thats what blogging is all about--the race for the next big thing. Innovation is rewarded to the point of meaninglessness. Our culture is ...
As Ive said in the last couple posts, Im going to try to post more of my recent inspirations, since that was essentially what I set up this blog for in the first place--somewhere to index what was cu...
(Me and some friends after being unceremoniously dumped off a couch. Photo by J.)This is a little adventure from awhile back--making dinner with friends at a place we shouldnt have been, at a time we...
Life is so strange lately--since I finished up classes and even before. Full of languid days and wild nights. Blatant disregard for curfew seems to be my middle name as I venture out to late night pa...
Its been a while.I feel like my life has changed completely since I last wrote here. Im taking a couple of rather ambitious classes this quarter (one of which requires 11 essays! In a 10 week quarter...
I'm back from Portland. One of my friends sprained her ankle, so we didn't have quite the wild adventures that we had planned, but we still had a pretty brilliant time. We went to the art museum and ...
I did really well on my finals and I won a scholarship I applied for, so altogether I suppose things have been pretty good lately. I've just been so bloody tired. But now I'm on spring break, so I ca...
No time for blogging lately. I've been working myself to death over studying for finals and finishing my photo project (it's due tomorrow!!!). Unfortunately, that "working myself to death" is more li...
This winter I've been much too afraid of color. I keep wanting to wear colorful things, but the colorful clothes I have get relegated to the back of my closet, never seeming quite appropriate to the ...
I came across these incredible pictures on tumblr today and knew I had to blog them. They remind me of the crazy stuff we used to do on field day at summer camp when I was a kid only soooo much ...
Whoa, blogging on a school night. Crazy stuff. I had a complete meltdown tonight, so I decided to take it easy and spend the evening catching up on some blogging. Honestly, I'm a wreck and I've been ...
This past week has been completely surreal. In a good way. And a bad way. I don't know.Anyway, we had several sunny days in a row, which got me thinking about my sunglasses situation. Of course, I'm ...
The past several days it's actually been beautiful and sunny out. Despite my impossibly large load of homework this week, it feels good to be alive. Sadly, that's not a feeling I've had that oft...
To be honest, whenever I get back a roll of film, I'm always disappointed. The thing about film is that the process is so prolonged that it allows my imagination to go wild, turning my little snapsho...
This has been a good week. School has laid off a bit for the present--enough to allow me to think and to get back into my normal routine, including taking outfit pictures. What I've realized in not t...
“Fashion photography is based on the fact that something can be more beautiful in a photograph than in real life”~Susan SontagLately, I've been thinking about what I love so much about fashion photog...
I've definitely been functioning on one-day-at-a-time mode for the last week or so. There's just so much to do that I can only do whatever is absolutely necessary for the next day. I guess this is su...
I keep going longer and longer between blog posts. I think this might be the longest I've ever gone. Partly I'm really busy. Partly I'm really tired. And partly, I'm just not that excited about blogg...
It's been a bit of a whirl-wind of a week. After registering for, attending and subsequently dropping 3 different classes in an attempt to fill a hole in my schedule, I somewhat by chance ended up in...
I'd pretty much given up on runway shows as a source of inspiration recently, because I had decided that it is just too much work to weed through all of them when they don't have much relation to the...
Hello 2010.(^This is me looking into the future. It's very bright. So bright that I couldn't see anything at all. Yeah, I like to be cheesy sometimes.)2009 was almost certainly the most surprising an...
I've been thinking a lot about personal spaces--about our rooms, apartments and houses, the places that our entirely ours. What strikes me as interesting about them is how in a way they say a lot abo...
