beauties at dusk

I bought my first digital camera when I was 13 years old. I pooled together all the money I saved up from tutoring, babysitting and chinese new year red envelopes. I used to shoot everything in my neighborhood -- flowers, street lights, cars, etc. Flowers were a favorite because I felt like it was something you couldn't mess up -- shooting people was terrifying (and still is at times). Sometimes it's nice just to grab my camera and go around the neighborhood documenting the the beauty there.... no coordinators, no centerpieces, no spectacle.

like everyone, once a year i love daylight savings and one time a year i absolutely abhor it. i don't feel like celebrating when i have to wake up an hour earlier than my body is used to. but there are a lot of things to love too -- like it still being light out when you drive home from work. the way the light is around my home when it's as late as 7 at night is beautiful...

borders is closing out many of its stores...which means sales galore! this was the only book i could snatch up that looked remotely interesting in the pile of mess that was left on the shelves in the art section.

my business card! the worst part about designing stuff for yourself is how fickle it makes you. i just got these printed and i already want to change the design.
