APRIL











Last month's freedom from assignments left me hungry to shoot the subjects I love without any need for concept or reason. By accident I loaded my camera with redscale film which turned most of the roll yellow, but still, I'm pleased with the results. I took a trip back to my hometown for a week during which I spent almost every moment drinking with some of my best friends. We took a daytrip to a small town 2hrs into the wilderness to hold an important meeting of tag and getting into trouble. It was a wonderful break from the city. 
It was all very relaxing right up until I came back down to earth (MTL) and realised I have responsabilities besides being a student.  
summer jobs await...

STRANGE ORIGINS







Spring is confusing. No one knows what they are doing and everyone's plans are up in the air like pollen searching for a place to land. It can feel liberating but at the same time frustrating for someone who is as impatient as I am. The weather is always reminding me of this.  Nature is renewing itself and the rain is carrying away all the garbage off the streets so that the city can breathe. I get more and more restless as the days grow warmer.

LANDMARK


This past year I was accepted into Concordia's photography program and I have met many inspiring people in my program. 

Just last week my classes ended for spring and I am going to miss seeing all the students who have been working so hard alongside me. Maybe I'm some anomaly, but school has never felt so rewarding to me, considering I've struggled with horrid grades my whole school career...
A parting moment of cheese: if you find something you love doing, never give it up.

SHADOW PORTRAITS





New At This

My reason for starting this blog is varied and I don't really know quite yet, but I feel like I should be putting myself out there. I've never really gotten into having a diary so maybe this is a way of trying it out. I have a hard time expressing myself and I'm hoping this blog will encourage me to be more open.
