In my photography class this year, we were required to choose a theme that we would thread through our projects for the entire semester. Having been a lover of creating series of images that flowed together, I decided to choose diptychs as my theme. In ancient art, diptychs were a style of painting which was illustrated on two pieces of wood fastened by a hinge. In photography, diptychs are 2 photos paired in order to compliment each other.
Here are some of my favorite pieces from the class this year!

With school having just ended, I thought I'd start up my blog again. While I was scrolling through my drafts, and I found this post which I had completely forgotten about - I decided to post it regardless because I really loved all the photos. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this looong overdue post (and look forward to some more posts coming!)

It's been an incredibly long time since I've sat down and written a post. With school going on in full swing, honestly, I completely forgot that I even had a blog. Regardless, I've been taking photos consistently so I thought I'd share some of my favorites from this fall as winter (unfortunately) is steadily approaching.

A couple weekends ago, two of my friends and I ventured to the Arboretum (what a surprise) to take some photos. The autumn colors, of course, were gorgeous - so it was an absolute must to go there. We spent the afternoon talking and taking photos and simply having a walk around - definitely one of the highlights of this fall!











Later that week, my photography class and I walked from our school over the iconic bridge at the Walker and over to Loring Park. As we went over at 8 a.m. in the morning, the sunlight was golden - and absolutely stunning. The hour-long block was definitely taken full advantage of by all of us (note - a post on my photos from photography class is coming when the semester ends!)










I posted more photos on my VSCOcam - so check it out if you want to!)

One of my favorite photography adventures that I took this summer was when Sarah and I went to the Minnesota Arboretum. We had gone together last fall just after I had just gotten my camera, so I was quite new at photography and honestly, didn't really know what I was doing. This year, we decided to go again in a different season to experiment with the different surroundings. As I went through the photos, it was crazy to see how much we both had improved in less than a year - so in this post, I wanted to share some of my favorite photos from last autumn and compare them to my favorite photos from this summer.

note - this post is long overdue...

Around two weeks ago, a friend and I went to the Weisman Art Museum at the U of M campus. Honestly, I never really know what to expect with art museums when I go in, but I always end up really enjoying them (especially the cute little gift shops.) The Weisman is pretty small, but the architecture (as you can see) is amazing -- for sure one of my favorite things about it! After wandering for a bit we then went over to Cane's (a restaurant nearby) for their signature chicken tenders, Texas toast, and dipping sauce. If you've never been there, try to go sometime soon; it's delicious! Naturally, I took my camera along, so here are some of my favorite pictures from the day!
