Its been quite sometime since I've last updated and a lot has happened. First, I'd like to apologize for being gone for so long...see I tried out a new blog site called Tumblr and while I do like it I don't find myself posting like I did on blogger and I do miss it. So here is yet another attempt at updating this blog on a frequent basis.
Now time to update you with all the latest news....for starters I moved to NYC!! Yes, it's true! All of my dreams are coming true minus being broke and jobless...that was never quite a dream of mine. I moved here soon after the boyfriend got a job in Manhattan working as a deck carpenter on the Off Broadway set of Rent. Pretty cool right! The month before I moved I was called into the city to freelance with a photographer on three different jobs. This isn't enough money to completely survive on but it does pay well and is enough to get by. Plus with the boyfriends awesome job we didn't see struggling too much. However, since actually moving here I have yet to be called for work. This is how freelancing works though and you can never really count on it. So basically I am unemployed and franticly filling out loads of applications each day so that I can help contribute to bills and rent...oh and so I can eat things that aren't noodles or rice everyday lol. I am so thankful that the boy has been as wonderful as he has been. He has stepped up and is working sometimes two to three jobs a day. I'm pretty sure he puts in 80 hour work weeks. He is being very patient with my job searching and I can not thank him enough for that!!!
I need to find something to do soon though because I am slowly going out of my mind. While we all complain about work it is definitely something that helps keep us sane and I can not wait for the day when I have to get up and go somewhere...to do something!! ha. Sounds simple but really without it things can get a little dull.
I have been trying to keep myself busy with editing my photography images from a recent wedding I just shot. My newest thing is to get up everyday and go sit in Starbucks while I job search and work on things. It's something to kinda look forward to and it gets me out of the apartment. I am also trying to update my website a bit and I'm designing watermarks for all my images that match up with the logo on my business card. I never thought of myself as one for graphic design and/or photoshop tricks but I have to say these days I kinda impress myself. I've been watching a lot of tutorials and learning lots of cool tricks. In the end I think it's making me more well rounded and ready for any possible job.
So since I just got done talking about digital things...and I can't freak myself out to much here...I'll leave you on a note of something film related (well kinda. I use to do these via film but I do believe that some of the images on this site are digital images). I found this site that has awesome things on it! lol but I really enjoyed the Tilt-shift page. As a fellow Tilt-shift lover and doer I really think some of these are beautiful and I want to get back in to doing them!

Oh oh one final note...every Tuesday the boyfriend has off (with the exception of today ha) and so Tuesdays have become Adventure Tuesdays where we go and explore something in the city. So far we have been sticking to free/cheap things to do and I am surprised by how much that is and all the awesome things we've seen. I have some catching up to do but keep and eye out for Adventure Tuesday updates!!
Ta Ta for now!
