This blog thing is actually getting an upper hand on me.... it's difficult which I imagine it wouldn't be if I would read the direction's but then it wouldn't be as much fun.
It about 2:30 in the afternoon and my dad, eric wrote me telling me that he is happy I set this thing up. So now I just hope that I can keep it up and have something intesresting to say every once in a while.
Apparently there is some of my family meeting up in Freddie-burg this coming weekend and I really hope to make it. I would love to see everyone though Aunt Sara's clan probably won't come. But Jason and I hope to make it to Lago soon and visit them. Jason and I are in Austin often and I miss them. I hope to kidnap tonya for a few days... maybe she can come chill on the ranch with me for a while... I miss her.
SO! I am learning about photography! I hope to be good at it one day and am actually reading a college text book on my own free will by Ansel Adams called The Negative. I took my first pictures of clouds the other day and when jason loads them onto his computer I will post some of my first photography work for you all to see. I had to concentrate on dark and light things... cause aparetnly there are like two thousand shades of gray or something and you have to capture almost white and almost pure black and all the shades inbetween to get a good image. But I did take an amazing out of focus picture of a sun flower hehe.
So I guess the plan for today is mowing... I am gonna help mow... I have never even started a mower once in my life so it could be interesting.... I wanna ride the riding mower... I always loved having races on papas riding mowers that went 2 miles an hour when I was little.So I have only a hand full of friend's up here in Austin, Jason being one and Duke Morse who is another really talented photographer. Everytime Jason and I go up to Austin we end up going to 5th and 6th street and following Duke around. He knows everyone in this town is ridiculous! I also ran into Derek Swanson last weekend on 6th street.It was really funy cause Derek and I haven't lived in the same town in forever and it was odd just running into him. I hope to do a shoot with him at some point. He wants to get into modeling and he informed me that he is actually gonna be in a runway show pretty soon and I think thats awesome. Myself being to short to do runway I hope to one day bust the "must be 5'8" criteria for the cat walk and do it myself.
So I guess that's all for now....I did a shoot with Jasons neice the other night.... she is so cute. She is 9 year's old and say's "I know" to everything! We did a fairy-tale shoot and a doll shoot with her. This is the only edited image so far but there is more to come. I will write more later today after I mow and what not.
Love you all to the moon and back,
