hello autumn!

Hello autumn! Today is September 23 which officially marks the first day of fall. Who else is as excited as I am? Although the colors have not yet arrived and the leaves aren't falling, it's never too early to start a little fall baking. This week I made pumpkin oreo cheesecake and homemade pumpkin spice coffee creamer. Cozy food. Anyways, that's not what this blog is about, maybe next time :)


Where does the time go? I thought the long hot days of summer were just beginning. I haven't posted on the good ol' blog for over a month. How is everyone? I'm sure you are all just as busy getting into the flow of a new semester, a new schedule, a new job, and whatever else life decides to throw your way.


I have been thinking about buying a new lens soon and narrowed it down to two. I decided to rent a lens in the valley when I made a trip to Redondo Beach with a few of my lovely friends. Although the weekend was busy and I didn't get around to an official shoot, I just snapped a few pictures around my room. I actually took most of these after sun down and I was surprised at how much light the lens allowed into the camera without flash (thank you 35mm 1.4)!


I have a photo shoot set up with a friend today, in celebration of fall of course, and another one in October so I won't leave you all hanging as long as I did last month, sorry, the beginning of the school year is always so time consuming!


"I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address." Tom Hanks in You've Got Mail. Wonderful fall movie.

This was snapped during my Seattle trip last October. Oh how I miss it.

There was a wedding! I think Melissa's going to get married on the beach :)
