I'm on Flickr!

I now have a Flickr account and am in the process of uploading all my past work. I will also continue to update it as I produce new work! Go check out my photostream!

GlakLove on Etsy

Starr Petronella, a classmate of mine, posted about GlakLove on Etsy. Angelyn Pass of Atlanta, GA, makes jewelry and ornaments by cutting up old film negatives to create new images. I absolutely love it all!

Plantation Wildlife Arts Festival


Today, I went to the Plantation Wildlife Arts Festival in Thomasville, GA with my mom and grandma. We walked around and viewed all the paintings and sculptures, etc. by all the different artists, and got to see some of them in action. I really enjoyed several of the artists and thought I'd tell you about them.

Edit: Transform

Jeremy Barton, a classmate and friend of mine, posted a video by Zack Arias, a former graduate of Gwinnett Technical College's photo program. The video was created for Scott Kelby's blog. It is a great video that really helps me when I am feeling like giving up. You should definitely watch it!

My You Tube Channel


I now have a You Tube channel with my work from last quarter's Multimedia 1 class. I haven't put everything on it yet, but stay tuned and keep checking for new videos!

Photo Essay

For Photojournalism, our final project is to do a photo essay. We have to take a series of photographs that tell a story which will also be narrated in a three minute time period. My project is on my great aunt's mother, Mrs. Park, a 105 year old. She is an amazing woman; they both are. So many wonderful, interesting stories, and still the memory to tell them.

Here is an example of a shot I took today while experimenting and photographing her.

Got my holiday portrait! You should too!

Tonight, my brother and his dog Cooper came in to get their holiday portrait taken on our set! I decided I'd go pose with them since he's my twin. :) Cooper definitely stole the show; he is so precious. Jealous, aren't you?

PhotoCatcher on Etsy

I found a photographer, Paul Harrett, on Etsy who does some beautiful landscape photography. He does HDR, macro,  and infrared. He likes to hike and camp in remote areas and of course, photograph them, which is something I would like to do someday. Check him out!

I now have a Facebook fan page where you can view my work and see what I'm up to! Visit it here. See my work from my first year at Gwinnett Tech and what I am working on currently.
