More darkroom...

I love this picture. I took another photo that is similar to this one on my last posting. The first is my brother looking out the window in our kitchen with my mother in the background, and this one is actually his best friend Brittany gazing out the window of her kitchen as well. I love the stillness of this photo, and the way she seems to be completely absorbed in thought. There's a softness and youthfulness to this that I can't quite put into worlds, even down to the way that one curl drapes gently over her shoulder. The sky was beautiful that day, and the sunlight filtering through the window had a dramatic effect that emphasized her facial features, adding a very concrete line between the light of the outside and the darkness inside the house.

The first photo I ever printed!
My sister Victoria (you'll notice she appears regularly in a vast majority of my photos...and she's wonderfully photogenic as well)

Who can resist this kind of begging?
Nothing more powerful than when someone's eyes pierce directly through the camera. Kinda feels like they're digging straight into you.
My cat Jazz, caught mid-meow.

  1. People's eyes are begging, too -- they're just begging for something other than food.
