Hello, dears!
Yayyy, I’m so excited for this etcetera post! I made the last one in September, so I have a BUNCH of random photos to catch up on, with subjects ranging from flowers and fall leaves to self-portraits and donkeys. 🙂
A heap of random pretty photos coming your way in 3… 2… 1!
Let’s go!
Hello, dears!
It feels like I haven’t done a sunset post in AGES! Remember when I used to do them all the time? I should get back into photographing them more because ahhh! Sunsets! Enough said.
Before we start, a note: I made this series to motivate myself (and you!) to get outside even on days when it seems so much more productive and useful to stay in front of the computer. I don’t know about you, but can only stare at a screen for so long before my brain starts getting frizzy. :’D So! I shall take you with me on a walk around our farm, adding in a little twist or art/photography prompt that you can try too. 🙂
Today we’ll be looking for interesting ways to capture the colors of sunsets other than just taking a picture of the sunset itself. (Future Allison: LIKE FRED! AND AUGUSTUS!)
Ahem. Onwards!
Hello, dears!
I’m back with the second part of our adventures at the fair! After the girls saw the rodeo, we joined up with the boys and visited several other shows and attractions. Plus we got some food, because how is it a fair without food? 😉 Enjoy some shots of a chainsaw artist, a unicycle rider, racing pigs, and more!
Hello, dears!
Today’s post is a bit different than normal. I haven’t done a crafty post in QUITE a while, but I’ve been having so much fun painting and decorating fall leaves that I wanted to share some ideas with you! These are great for fall table settings, happy mail, Thanksgiving decor, etc. Let’s get started!
Hello, dears!
I had so much fun making this post and editing the pictures for today! A few weeks ago, I spent a while practicing self portrait photography because I found a spot of beautiful lighting in our house and wanted to use it somehow. 😛 I went a little overboard with the editing, ending up with some pretty and unique double exposures and black and white photos.
I hope you enjoy these experiments, and maybe get some inspiration for creative ways to edit portraits (your own or of others)!
Hello, dears!
Today I have some more poetry + fall aesthetics for you. I’m really excited about both! I went outside just as the sun was setting the other day to get some September-y photos and then had fun editing to make them even more so. I interspersed a few pictures throughout the poem and added the rest at the end because I couldn’t bear to leave them out. 🙂
If you’re excited for fall, you might enjoy this post! If you’re not – well, maybe you’ll be excited for it now. 😛
Enjoy, my friends!
Hello, dears!
I’m back with another etcetera post today! If you’re new here, I use these posts to combine all the “orphan photos” and mini topics that aren’t quite big enough for their own post. It’s basically a virtual scrapbook of little moments from the past two months. 🙂
Enjoy this collection of summer adventures, memorable explorations, golden hour photos, etc.!
Hello, dears!
My sister Megan recently had a birthday which involved cake, friends, a scavenger hunt, and TONS of yellow. It also involved me, the sister who took probably hundreds of pictures because it was so much fun to capture the joy and laughter, plus the pretty party decorations. 😛
If you like cake, yellow, or being happy, you will probably enjoy this post.
Hello, dears!
Last week, my family and I went on vacation to North Carolina. We had a lovely time, both staying at our vacation house, and visiting my friend Aria and her family (but more on that next time 😉 ). Today I’m going to be posting about the first couple of days, including some photography from the beautiful space where we stayed and a bunch of pretty pictures I got when we went boating on the lake behind the house. Enjoy!
