~~~~~~~~ :camera: Amanda :camera: ~~~~~~~~

I am an amateur unemployed photographer who makes do with whatever elements she can find. The only education in photography I have had, as of yet, are a couple of continuing education courses.
My equipment consists of: wal-mart bed sheets, a reflective enough set of car windshield covers, as many light bulbs as I can get a hold of and strategically set up around the room, my best friends who happen to conveniently be gorgeous and photogenic, my Nikon Coolpix P80 with 10mega pixels, and lack of an adequate tri-pod. I hardly ever even use the one I borrowed.
I don't even own photoshop. But I do have access to free photo-editing websites on the internet.

I don't consider myself an extremely intelligent person. I consider myself to be a bit crazy, really random, and with a love for art in every form. But, especially in photography. I find it one of the most beautiful forms of expression in the world. It brings you closer to your model(s) as well as closer to any and all other human beings that see your hard work and appreciate it for what it is. I love how so much can be taken from a photograph. So much emotion, meaning, relevance, ingenuity. Anything. A picture can capture your very heart and soul, whether you are behind the camera or in front of it. It will capture you, and show your beauty, hate, anger, fear, love, joy, pain, trust, beliefs, and passion to the world.

Shall I take your picture?

I am a hopeless romantic. Once you're my friend, you're always my friend. I tend to have difficulty writing things about myself when put on the spot. I think Amanda is insane, but I love her anyway. I love and adore hearts, they are my obsession. I love making people laugh, and I don't like to judge people. I'm a free spirit and full of spontaneity. I try not to let things get to me, but when they do they can become overwhelming.
Painting is one of my many passions. I also like to dabble in modelling and photography. But, regardless of what I do, when I put my mind to it I like to put my whole heart in it as well.
Amanda would say I'm full of life, and I have a unique perspective on it, and that I'm also very understanding.
Another thing, I eat cigarrettes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so don't give me crap about it. I just don't take crap. :smoking:
All in all, I love having fun and living life to the fullest. Wow, that sounded like something out of the singles ads.
Even though I live like that, I'm still trying to sort everything out, and I can be confused at times. But, I try.

Y'know, life can be a pain in the ass sometimes. But, I love it.

:omg: :la:

We've had a major influx of watchers, HOORAH!!!

First off, I want to say, I love you all. Both new watchers and old. You are all amazing. And we have almost 7,000 views now.
Lauren and I are ecstatic :dummy:

I know I don't say a lot to people who just favorite, but I do want all of you who fave our work to know we really, really do appreciate it, so thank you all :love: I just feel like habitual "thank you's" lose their sincerity by the hundredth one you paste and send :lol: so I tend to only respond to comments now.

I don't have enough money to actually get membership for DA so I hope you guys will critique in my comments, I would really like you to feel free to do so. I'd like to know more about what you think of our work, how you think we could improve. I am actually in the mood for nit-picking, so DO IT :meow:

Also, when I twist her arm to do it, Lauren will take some photos of her uber amazing paintings and we'll finally post those here for you to see. She's a very wonderful artist, I can't wait for her to show case her other talents on our joint-DA. I'm a little envious. I can't do as many different things as well as she can. But, then when I get over that I feel like that obnoxious mom who wants to shove her kids every stick-figure drawing in everyone's face and say, "ISN'T MY LITTLE PICASSO BRILLIANT?!" :lmao: but seriously, Lauren's painting is beautiful.

I've been doing better with the parental issue, and I'll be leaving on the 27th to Dallas. So you might not see as many new shots of Lauren for a while. :( I'm going to miss her :cries: but I'll come down and visit often and throw her out in front of my camera frequently any time I'm with her :lol: she'll love that pftahaha! :dummy: Or she might kill me :omg: but anyway!

She'll be staying at my house practically until the day I leave, so we'll be busy little bees until then. Once again, I love you all, and thank you so much for supporting our work. It makes us happy dance :la:

Bad art is more tragically beautiful than good art 'cause it documents human failure (c)

What is love?
Love is something you feel. You can give it and take it. But, you can never steal it, hide it, or run away from it forever. It will always find you.
