Howdy everyone!

These journal entries are becoming more of a seasonal addition with my busy schedule. So here’s a winter update of what I’ve been up to and such.

Down to my last semester of Engineering, so it’s nice to see that chapter come to a close. So yep, that means I’m back in Regina for the next 4 months. Once I graduate, I’m really not sure where I will end up... Calgary, Regina, or timbucktwo! Who knows? Haha.

Photography wise, I’ve been busier than ever with clients. I’m also glad that I’m starting to feel more assertive in my style and skills, so I’m confidently taking on larger jobs. Oh! Started submitting to magazines, I don’t expect any replies for a little bit, it’s one of those “submit submit submit” until you get in things, which I’m patient with. I’ve also been fooling around with different styles, so I’m more versatile. You may have seen my recently submitted “cover girl” style shot, which I was pretty happy with. Also I started planning and prepping for my fashion book. I’d like to expand my style into this genre, though I’ve found my current work is falling somewhere between glamour and fashion (glamour poses and feel, with slight fashion lit influences).

I’ve been looking to jump into different things, if anyone would like to see my try something, just post on here, and I’ll see if it’s possible.

So below I have listed a few new shots, and some favourites from other amazing artists. Enjoy, and till next time! Keep trucking.
