Hey everyone,

I'm sorry I haven't been posting a lot on here. I'm basically working 24/7 between my Mon-Fri job and my photography projects on the weekends. I really feel like I could make a decent living with my photography but the hardest part is getting yourself noticed. So I've been trying to go out and shoot something interesting at least once a week, hoping to grow my presence as a photographer. My dad suggested putting out applications to some of the local newpapers and companies to see if they need any photography work done. I've never done anything like this before so it's gonna be interesting.

In other news, it looks like I'll be at FA:U in September so if you're there, come say hi! Also on the list is Furpocalypse in October and Midwest Furfest in December. I'll never get tired of taking pictures at cons, I swear.

Cause I'll be there and I want to see all your lovely faces :D

I finally got around to creating a photography page on Facebook to start getting some feedback on my photos UwU So please check it out and tell me what you think!

I decided to spend the weekend up with my good friends at Penn State and boy was that the right decision =w= from skating the massive mountains of State College to getting kitten whiskers drawn on me at a highlighter party, every moment was a blast with these guys uwu Can't wait to visit again before you leave college XD

Luckily my birthday falls on Labor Day so I'll be able to celebrate my birthday all day XD Now to figure out who I want to visit for this long weekend :P

Should I rent a Canon 6D body or a Canon 16-35mm f2.8 L II for FA:U shenanigans? Also, who am I gonna see there?!

I'm about to cry I've never had this much money in my entire life, aside from maybe when I graduated from high school ;w; Looks like things are going to work out okay for me =w=

Anybody down for a meetup/learning to longboard kinda thing at Anthrocon? Last year I had my good friend Drewby there to keep me company but he sadly can't make it this year :( I'll bring as many boards as I need for anyone who wants to try :3
