new camera + new film = happy accident

this happened as a result of me not totally knowing how to unload film from use my arbus-esque box camera but i kinda love what happened. more of these photos to be continued....

happy birthday to me!

Last week I turned 22 and celebrated it with a palindrome themed bday party! Birthdays are my favorite holiday. Not just mine, but birthdays as a general holiday, so here are some snippets from mine!

Kaitlyn celebrated in SF by sending me this awesome gold, animal filled birthday card.

and a copy of Giant Robot, which I haven't delved into yet, but I'm it will be a good time.

Here is one of the funniest bday cards I got from my friend and awesome adventuring photographer, Lauren Pond.

and here is my bday cake!

Enough about me...countdown to Kaitlyn's bday in about a week!

merry belated christmas!

mega apologies kaitlyn...i have been ever so terrible with keeping up juan in meta in recent days and with sending you mail. no apologies, just trucking ahead with 2 big blog posts!

here's my answer to the norman rockwell challenge!

i spent this past christmas day with my friend julia's family. they are pretty much my new adopted socal family. julia has the cutest grandparents...see below for julia's adorable grandpa. ADORABLE. you know how much i love old people. give me a room full of old people and fake food any day and i'm pretty much in heaven : ) anyways, we had a swedish themed christmas with glogg, swedish meatballs & lingonberry sauce and mashed potatoes. YUM!

It's been a while since I moved to SF and I haven't posted anything yet, but soon soon soon I promise!  I have a potential HDR I'm working on.  In the meanwhile, I found this website which is like our projects and looks like fun!  I think I'm going to open a flickr account so I can start one.
