Changes...

A lot of things are changing in my life right now...off to live on a college campus for the first time EVER. It's exciting, and a little nerve-wracking, and very sad as I leave my friends from PHC...but God is good, and I do believe He orchestrated this change...

Anyway, I'll have some more photos soon, hopefully, but for the moment, here are the fun photos from our trip to North Carolina--the "behind-the-scenes" view of what we really did for most of the weekend... =)



How many people can look at one computer? A lot, we discovered =)


Rachel and Abby were...having fun. I'm not sure what they were looking at, but most likely they were reading each other's chats. That's what we did most of the time...


I love my sisters and my friends, and I also didn't mind the lighting in this hotel...for not having photographers in mind at all, as I'm sure was the case, it wasn't bad.

And yes, I realize that I talk about lighting a lot. But there's a reason: lighting is one of the most important elements of a photo, and so often, I just have to work with what I've been given. In places like this hotel room, I could have turned on different lamps and turned the overhead lights off (in fact, if I had, these photos probably would have been better...but I didn't think of it at the time). Other times, like at the wedding, I really have no control...but manipulating my camera and the way it lets light in is really a huge part of getting a good photo. Anyway. Enough photographic rambling...


Yes, Sarah's devious look is most likely because that is not her phone. And who knows what she is doing with it =)

As for Grace...........I don't even know what caused that expression. 

Oh, I just remembered--I have a few photos from a trip to Claire's house to share, so those will come soon! Hopefully tomorrow, since I need to get caught up before classes start on Monday =)
