New addition: Monster High

After my last post a few weeks ago I got two new dolls! Venus McFlytrap and Lagoona Blue (skultimate roller maze). They are amazing and I love them, I am still on the lookout for a few other favorites of mine. I've basically been camping outside Toys R Us on Thursdays for their truck, it is always so much fun not knowing if a store got in new dolls. I know Walmart and Target both haven't got any new dolls in weeks! I am always on the lookout, I got Lagoona Blue at Freds, of all places. I'll be sure to find more off-the-wall places to check soon. 

Mountains.

Around this time of year, when the weather starts getting cool and the air is crisp, Mack takes a vacation to Tennessee. Last year I had the amazing opportunity of going with him, however this year we have planned a family trip and have to postpone this one until early 2013. I wanted to share with you some of my favorite photos from last year in hopes you'll remember we all need and deserve a special vacation.

It's a Doll World.

After finding Novi Stars a few months ago and reading forum after forum, I started noticing Monster High dolls for the first time. I've seen them in stores for a long time now but haven't payed much attention to them. Since looking at countless blogs and pictures, I started watching the webisodes and fell in love with the characters. I finally looked through the isles of Target and Walmart for these unique dolls. From the show Draculaura is hands down my favorite, the fact that she's a vegetarian/vegan (no site can really tell me which one) really related to me. The other characters are just as great and since I had so much fun shooting my Novi Stars, I figured I could get great shots of the Monster High dolls! I have an almost endless list of all the dolls I want to be able to grow my collection of doll photography.

Disney Thrift.

While thrifting today we stumbled upon a very tucked away thrift shop that we always see signs for, but is never opened. Luckily today we were able to catch it and inside found these awesome Disney records. Sleeping Beauty, The Aristocats, Alice in Wonderland, and my favorite is a German version of Lady and The Tramp! I've already listened to all of them (some are stories while others are the traditional songs) and I will always love buying Disney records because of how classic they sound. 

Scout.

Scouting out a shoot location, only captured a little of what I wanted but realized I'm becoming the photographer I've always wanted to be.

Rave Life.

January 2011 I attended my first rave, Bubblegum Parade. Since then I've attended my fair share of shows, taking hundreds at each one. I have compiled a group of my favorites, I tend to have better luck with light trails and single person shots (all of the ones below) but I'll keep looking for big group or circle shots.  I hope you enjoy and see into our little world.

Places Unknown

While driving on our way to Aiken, Mack and I stopped at this abandoned building on the side of the road. Slightly tucked away, We always have a way of finding these places. We weren't (and still aren't) sure of what this place was, I hoped I captured a little of what it is now. 

Trouble Makers.

Yet again I have rescued more stray cats. This time there are less, but still too cute to resist. I have yet to name them (and probably wont for attachment reasons). As you can see they are not as innocent as they seem!
