{Tell me what you see.}

{I see...}

{A girl.}

{Sitting on a bed...}

{She's reading. Shakespeare. Macbeth, I think.}

{She stops.}

{She's thinking.}

{I wonder what she's thinking...}

{She sees me.}

{...But she smiles.}

{As if...}

{...She knows me.}

{We talk.}

The kind of simple fun one gets into with a DSLR and nice lighting.

Do Try This at Home

Random day last week where Nay and I discovered we were wearing cute outfits and decided to do a mini photoshoot in the downstairs room, which was lately left bereft of its ping pong table (sad face. We're gifting it to the grandparents). Anyway, here are some of the highlights of the zany shoot:

Prerequisite creepy/dramatic picture. Please disregard the hazy colored shapes of hastily blotted Nerf Guns in the closet. Instead, feast your eyes on that lovely little lantern. It is the Pottery Barn Malta Lantern--we have several in different sizes, but I believe that one is the large. Go quick, they're on sale!

Perfect lighting + homemade terrarium = awesome.

 We then moved outside to the deck:

Yes, I did blink. Yes, I still think it looks good enough to post.

Dem legs doe. 

The wonderful dress and shoes are from my mom's cavernous closet. Things go in but rarely come out until years later.  I removed the shoulder pads and might take in the shoulders a bit because they're actually an awkward capsleeve length. I was considering leaving the shoulder pads in, but was innocently told I looked like a linebacker (yeah, no).

Really proud of this shot too. My photo game was on par today, as was my sister's model game.

I'm sure you'll be seeing more of us shortly! Lots of time for photoshoots coming up as Nay finishes up her finals this week :)

Pushing Daisies

 

Yellow roses through a screen.

 

Just sitting on the edge of the curb backwards, don't mind me. (Also do not mind our sparse lawn.)

 

Weird cartoonily-distended-feet shadows.

 

"Hopefully I don't get hit! Heh heh!"

 

"Is that a car...?"

 

Ride...

...or die.

Chinese New Year Shoot!

So, I was looking back in the archives and realized I had posted a picture of Naomi from the waist down, promising to upload the whole Chinese New Year shoot later.

Apparently, I meant a whole lot later.

So here it is, finally.

Don't mind me, I'm just trying to be cool...

(Is it working?)

I've made my bed and now I'm laying in it.

Let's hang out sometime.

(Okay, that was pretty morbid humor. She's just jumping in the air.) 

Cheery cherry blossoms.
