This was taken less than 20mins before the explosions. I was walking to the Prudential Center to meet friends and cheer on my housemate. I was just thinking how much I love this city, and how blessed I am to live here. God truly preserved my life, I was one block away from the explosions. I heard them go off and saw the smoke. Most of my friends are safe, but please pray for the victims and my city. We are all shaken to see our home under attack.

Rule of Thirds in the Subway, NYC, June 2012
This was shot very quickly since I didn’t want to attract attention in the subway. I’m pretty obsessed with using subway structure as frames, this is probably my first success on film. This is not my most favourite picture, but it is pretty significant so I thought I’d post it with my thoughts.
Since I’ve picked up film photography a year ago, I’ve been obsessed with the quality and colour that film produces. I’m not a big fan of the grain here, (I believe this is one of the Lomography Colour Negative 800 speed films I picked up at UO just or fun) but I love what this roll has taught me - give your pictures a second chance.
I shot and had this roll developed a while ago, but wasn’t happy with most of the images. This roll was a bit of an experiment with higher ISO and messing around with ‘hipster’ film. But here I am a couple of months later, stumbling across the folder of unsatisfactory images, finding a few gems and learning a few lessons.

How Ali Asked Me to Marry Him

Please forgive the length of this post, I really want to share our story with friends near and far. Since our engagement we have received an unexpected outpouring of love and joy, that I felt it was necessary to share this with you all. Ali planned extensively for this and I hope I do his efforts justice.

Almost 3 weeks ago, I made my way to Harvard Square convinced that I was going to have dinner with Ali & his suite mates. But instead of Korean fried chicken, I was set upon an unexpected journey to find penguins around the Yard.
