Downtown Excursion

One thing about this town is it has some amazing little nooks with the coolest stuff! I could spend hours taking pictures of all the interesting tidbits. These were just a few that captured my fancy.

Around the house

I've been practicing playing around with depth of field. For practice I decided to use items around my house and play around with those.

Trip to Tamarack

A while back my boyfriend and I took a day trip to Tamarack, a resort about a couple hours away. It was so beautiful up there but cold! Matt is also a photographer, so he showed me a few tricks. We hiked around the golf course at the resort where there was some really scenic trails. These were my favorites from the trip.

Down by the River

My good friend Jackie was willing enough to let my take a few shots of her down by the river. What a good sport! Here's how they turned out.
