so lately i've gotten back into drawing. for those who do not know, i was an illustration major for a year before making the switch to photography. i've just been filling up my sketchbook with teen titans (yes, i'm serious) fanart. i used to be SO INTO this show, when i was about 14-16 years old, but lost interest towards the end of the programs's reign.

currently i am illustrating my friend melissa's teen titans fan fic, bound to you. it's really good so i suggest you all check it out if you're interested in TT!

some TT illustrations will probably find their way on here along with my photography. since i can't find the pen to my super old tablet, and since the tablet/replacement pen is discontinued... i bought a refurbished small wacom bamboo tablet today! i'm super excited to get it - coloring/drawing with a mouse, let alone a LAPTOP TRACKPAD, is hell.


and just out of curiosity, what are you all being for halloween? i'm going to a super fun party after i shoot a wedding, and i'm being lady gaga, while my boyfriend is going as billy mays! random, right?

well guys, i just booked my first wedding! i'm scared shitless, but i think it will turn out alright because the bride and groom are pretty cool! i mean, they're having their wedding on halloween - i think that says enough. i'm super excited and nervous at the same time. *crosses fingers*

another exciting thing is that i'm doing a couples shoot with a couple i graduated with! it's going to be their 3-year anniversary and they just wanted some nice pictures of themselves to keep. it'll give me good practice for engagement-type shoots.

AHHHHHH!! wish me luck! <3

news news news!

1. a self-portrait i completed at the end of last school year won FIRST PLACE in my city's drawing category at their art show! i am so surprised i can't believe it! i will upload this self portrait soon.

2. my photography ("drowning") has been featured here: [link] !!!! Thank you so much !!

some old man attempted to steal my camera bag today. can't trust anybody these days i guess.

in other news, i will be attending the ohio state university and majoring in photography. while i am sad about leaving my old art school, i'm excited to be saving money and embarking on some new adventures. i really want to grow this year as a photographer. hopefully i meet some new people to shoot and maybe even make some money doing it, but let's not count on that.

i want to thank all the people that have ever fav'd my photographs. this is a new thing to me (i used to be an illustration major) and i am having a lot of fun with it. so thank you for your support.

xoxo michelle
