trains and buses | week 5

in the last week of photography class, we went on a field trip to the southeastern railway museum. this museum is like a little boy's or photographer's dream. it's full of history, color, crumbling old trains and buses. AND you get to go inside them!

the assignment was to basically take all we've learned in the last 5 weeks and put a collection together.

i signed up for a photography workshop with jessica ashley from peachtree photography. it's not til spetember, but i'm pretty excited. i read a lot about workshops and always wanted to go to one, but never found a good one in atlanta.

however, one of my all time favorite teams IS coming to atlanta and they usually stay on the west coast! i'm so bummed i'm going to be out of town that day! oh well, i begged them to pretty please come back :)

c + s | engaged

he could have gone anywhere else that saturday night. she could have stayed outside on the patio. they could have passed each other without saying a word.

but they didn't. instead a chance encounter for anyone else, was the beginning of their forever.

they wed this october.

enjoy.
