Description

I'm not sure how I feel about this, but I think I'll come to like it eventually.
This is Natalie, my brother's girlfriend. She's a wonderful dancer and I love her to death for doing this for me, she's amazing.
This came out exactly as I saw it, but while we were shooting we couldn't get the tutus or a cotton shirt to light on fire, it was too windy:( But luckily I had some photos of the bonfire David and I had when we had the meetup, and it was surprisingly easy to edit the flames in. So even though this came out the way I wanted it to, it doesnt feel as successful. I've never edited in something that wasn't physically there at the actual shoot, but hey I don't mind experimenting;)
This week has been really up and down. Most days I would start having episodes where I'd just sit and stare into space and feel numb. It's strange. I'll get better though, I always do.
My mom and I got into a huge fight the other night. There's a chance I might not graduate, but I always get my shit together in the end.
Luckily today I'm having a client shoot and then I'm going to the Drive-In Theatres with a few of my favorite guy friends to see Avengers. Somehow spending time with them really takes my mind off of things and I can relax and smile...I think it's because my maturity level drops to 0 when I'm around them haha.
