photography class.






for photography class i had to "mimic" a historical photographer's style.
i chose Arnold Genthe. his photos are very soft and are in black and white usually. 
above are the ones that i took for class.
below are some of his photos.



i think i did pretty good.

i remember you remembering, do you?


if you haven't heard of Tyler Knott Gregson, you haven't lived.

he is the best poet i have ever read. and he uses a typewriter to print his poems, and scans them, and puts them on instagram. (his username is tylerknott)

below i wrote out one of his recent poems, because i love it. it's only a little part of it, because it was super long. so if you want to see the whole thing, just go to his instagram or google him or something. (stalker.)

"do you remember the time i told you that there's
more to life than waiting for death to stop
crossing her t's and dotting her i's and checking
her list and checking it twice to finally get our
names? i remember the time i told you that we've
got two hands but one is for holding mine and
what you choose to do with the other determines
the who and the how of what you'll become. 
squeeze it tighter now and whisper into my ears
what you want and i swear on the bones that were
made strong when milk did my young body good, that
i will break them all into dust and chalk powder
just to bring you what you need.
mention it, just mention that you like the smell
of new water on old earth, and i will give you the
rain. take down your hair and i will become the
wind and do nothing with my days but play in it...
i remember you remembering. do you?"

its pretty amazing, huh? yeah.

diy personalized journal

hi! i came up with this idea how to transform plain journals and planners from being boring and unusable, into something super cute and super easy to make, and once i tried it (and it turned out awesome..) i thought i would share it with you!

all you need is...
a plain journal (it can be paperback, hardcover, leather, ect.) 
old postcards, envelopes, vintage typewriter paper, ect.
mod podge
scissers, glue stick, paint brush (not shown)

first see if one of your envelopes or whatever you're using fits the cover of your journal nicely. if it doesn't, you will have to cut it down to size. mine did. 

next cut it into strips. this was extremely nerve-wracking for me because i only have a few of these old envelopes and i didn't want to ruin any of them. just be brave and do it.

heeeeyyyy lookie its my strips of envelope wahooo


next put glue on the strip you want to go on the top part

okaaay now glue all of them and put them all on. they don't have to be perfectly aligned or anything. see mine, its all like, everywhere. and i like it like that.

now put some mod podge on there. and then spread it around with a paint brush.


now just wait for it to dry and it's done! see below for finished project (i did it like 3 times.. hahah)

i covered my planner with postcards... and i didn't realize this until it was done, but the cover was clear. so it made the cool backside of the postcards on there. i love it.

i made two journals and a planner. (:

the edges kinda curled on this one. but that's okay. it gives it character. 



hope you enjoyed this quick little tutorial!

// the three stooges? //

me and two of my best friends went on a photoshoot 
in a field with a bunch of abandoned cars and stuff
its right by mcdonalds
it takes like fifteen minutes to walk there from my house
yeah because we cant drive
on the way i took pictures of my hands
and josiah falling on the ground from laughter
and then we got down to business
haha just kidding
theres no business when it comes to us
we just hang out and take pictures 
and somehow they turn out blog-worthy
it must be God, because i have no idea how we pulled this off
