Drawing Day {a Thursday post by Rachel Nicole}

Don't forget to enter the November FTP photo challenge, there's only 8 hours left! Click here.
Lately I've had this urge to draw. I knew exactly what it was I wanted the outcome to be, but didn't realize it would take so long to get there. After many failures, I finally got a drawing I liked.
  There's always time for social activities. We were going to frisbee when I took this one. (Finally decided it was a good idea to bring my camera with me everywhere I go.)   Not what I wanted.   Again, neither were what I wanted.   cozy fires are must-haves   School must be done at some point. Finally. Something I liked (not besties with the lips, though.)
Which picture was your favorite?  How was your Thanksgiving? Did you enter the photo challenge? Are you going to? Hurry and enter! There's not lots of time left!

School Break

Don't forget to enter the November FTP photo challenge! Click here. School Break I've spent the first few days of my Thanksgiving break doing school work, so I don't really have any pictures to show just yet. I'm leaving tomorrow morning to visit family and have plans to do a shoot with at least one of my cousins, though, and hopefully I'll be able to show those on my next Tuesday! I'm going to take a wild guess and say that no one reading this cares to hear me ramble about my papers that I'm currently writing, so I'll just wish you a happy Thanksgiving and leave you with two pictures of my cat :)

I Just Love Portraits (Sunday Post for Missed Ones)

I love taking portraits.

I genuinely don't care who they are of, where they are or when I take them, I simply enjoy any opportunity to photograph a persons' style and personality. 

I had a professor last year who questioned my love of portraits (he prefers nature, still life etc.) and I had the most difficult time attempting to explain to him what I love about them. 

Truth is, I don't really know, I just do. 

Portraits of friends, portraits of random people or even portraits of myself. I get so much joy out of taking them, editing them, posting them and going back to revisit past ones.

My wish for every photographer is that they find some aspect of photography that makes them as happy photographing people makes me. 

.because photography is suppose to be fun. 

.point blank.

.Find what makes it fun for you and embrace it.

(Also, I sincerely apologize for missing almost a month of posts!! School got super needy all of the sudden, but it's slowing down now and I won't let it happen again until this time next semester :)  )
