Oscar De La Renta Girl

I can't afford this dress so I attempted to draw it. The detail on this dress is amazing...I tried to capture it the best I could in my trusty moleskine. I liked the way it turned out so I'm using this image for my new PBL header! I think it is perfect for spring!

Say It Again

Spring Is Here

I'm behind on my uploads. Way behind. I realize now why these projects are so hard. I guess I'm just another casualty of the three six five project. I have rolls of film I need to process, but it will be too exhausting to go through my notes and figure out how many days I've missed. I'll count them up at the end, for now I'll just continue to shoot to avoid complete and utter failure...
My sketchbook has been neglected as well, so lets toast to a creative season, and of course new beginnings... the good news is, the blooms have been inspiring me...

{29/365} the toy collection

The Diana was my first toy and with every roll I am learning. I have made so many mistakes, but each one makes me want to try again. Of course some of the mistakes have had happy outcomes, while others just help me improve. I recently purchased a new flash, and a fisheye lens for the Diana. The flash is a necessity, while the fisheye lens will be fun to shoot with--especially in the city. Shooting 120 film is of course an expensive hobby, but I truly love the effects of the Diana and I thought I would like the Holga just as much. So when I saw a Holga kit in the bargain bin, I had to snatch it up. I have always wanted to shoot with a twin lens camera, so when I heard about the Blackbird Fly I had to get it! The idea of shooting 35mm in the Blackbird totally sold me on it, my inevitable mistakes won't be as costly.

She has been really cute lately, I can't help but want to take pics of her :)

I was taking pics of my hello kitty for m.a.c. haul for the blog and thought this would be a cool self portrait :)

{22/365} Crazy Beautiful

I am having trouble getting inspired with the cold, the short days, and my crazy work schedule. The light has just sucked, and the snow is gone the second it hits the ground. I wish I could get one wonderland snow that I can photograph, but in NYC it turns to slush in an instant! I promise photos will get better soon!

{21/365} Vintage Valentine

I bought this valentine at the thrift shop. I thought it would be a good way to play around with the "holga effect" in photoshop. Nothing is quite as good as the real thing.

{20/365} Miss Sophia

I love her.

{17/365} Paris Books & Trinkets

I really want to go to Paris, someday. That would be an amazing place to take photos, no?

{16/365} A bit too early for my own good

I've been feeling a bit under the weather lately, hopefully I can kick this cold!

{12/365} An Attempt to Soar

Story: I spotted these balloons caught in the tree YESTERDAY, but didn't have my camera with me. That of course is the cardinal sin of doing a 365 project. I kicked myself all day! I should note however, that the REASON why I didn't take my camera is 1) I had already taken several photos that morning and 2)I was carrying cupcakes to work because I am a nice person :). Anyway, I brought my camera with me today and walked past the same tree, and luckily the balloons were still caught! :) The moral of the story is that I will bring a camera with me wherever I go from here on out. P.S. I pick up my 120 film at the lab today. Hopefully, it will be a good turnout! Wish me luck.
