Summer 2010 vs. Summer 2011
Staggered throughout the year I have continuously wondered to myself how this summer or any summer could possibly beat out May-Aug of 2010, the most amazing couple of months I have ever had. In May I started interning for Chicago, NY, and Atlanta Fashion Photographer Lisa Sciascia. In June I turned twenty one. As a gift for my twenty first birthday my boyfriend flew us to Vegas for a long weekend in the beginning of July. Our first night, after dinner, gambling (winning $100,) and a romantic serenading on a gondola ride, he proposed to me in front of the Eiffel Tower while his sister photographed the entire thing, (the one thing I told him I wanted joking around (sort of) when I was 15.) In July my brother got married and the next day I was off to London to start my month long European Travel through London and France.
As you can see, I had a pretty amazing three months. How can anything possibly beat this? But within this year, and last couple of months especially I have been truly blessed. I have an amazing and supportive Fiance who is willing to let me follow and fulfill all my dreams, parents that understands my goals and ambitions and pushes me to not let anything hold me back and I have had the honor of working with so many talented artists and creative individuals that minds and visions have sparked some of my favorite photographic work I have ever produced. I have been getting recognized for my style and my hard work more then I have in the past. Finally, it seems that my dedication is finally taking me to the places I want to be, or at least on the right path. And to me, that definitely is competing with last years summer!
Cannot wait to see what else is about to come my way!
