Harvest Moon and Spider

Took a few shots the other week and here are the best two of the Harvest Moon as well as a HUGE spider that is living outside of our window.

The itsy-bitsy spider should have washed away in the 4 days of straight rain we had following, but he was HUGE, and still lives there.

Self-Engagement-Portraits

Weddings cost more than anyone would like them to, so we decided to try taking our own engagement shots. However, in doing this things are bound to not go right… Problems included: a lost remote shutter, tripods, running over to get in place and having the shutter go off once after 10 seconds. Despite this, along with the fact that I didn’t set up the best lighting, and we were squinting some in the sun, I’m still happy with how these turned out and wanted to share

We are Virginia Tech

It’s hard wrapping my head around what happened 3 years ago, and I think it hit’s me harder every year. When I think that peers of mine didn’t have had the last 3 years that I have had, it’s kind of unfathomable.

After it all happened, it was weird very being in Blacksburg. Everyone outside of town had heard on CNN/everywhere and were soo supportive, but it was a very strange place to be. I wasn’t planning on it, but I did make my way down to campus for the vigil in the days following the shooting and it struck a cord with me. I kind of finally saw our community come together that was effected and it helped the healing. Thought I’d share the pictures I took that night with my point and shoot Canon.

We Remember. Never Forget. We are Virginia Tech.

Sam doing Video

I just stumbled across this awesome photo from the October 3, 2009 wedding of Brian and Rebecca. I was lucky enough to shadow Brian’s dad who is a professional photographer, and help out with the video!

Snow 1, Tree 0

Well, the tree that was in my previous time-lapse post lost a little of itself. Here is the same view as the time-lapse in the first picture. The rest are pics of the destruction.

Beginning of the Snowpocalypse

I am currently home in Washington D.C. and there is lots of snow. Lots of it. I decided to do this Time-lapse of the impending doom out the window so I could get a steady shot. The first shot was around noon and I took a shot every half an hour until around 8pm. It really started to snow late at night, and I will have some cool shots ground zero tomorrow.

The Time-lapse is pretty cool. You can play around with the settings at TimeLapseCreator.com.
