Enter through Commerce...










So our last project was to drive to Paris, Texas and take photos that interest us (the class) individually. 

Unfortunately, I didn't get the memo to for the 8:30 carpool so I showed up for regular class and worked on my blog like the studios person I am! (Oh yea Vaughn I did, I did)

Interestingly enough I was able to speak with Vaughn and take pics of my local town Commerce, Texas instead.



So me and my feet took an adventure with Golden Girl (my sister's car) and went on our way....







Along the way I made a few stops further throughout the what is called the  "Hole" of Commerce


Legacy Deliveries this wayy....

...into the the dead-end wall

.:One-ON-One:.

Sooo, I had a one-ON-one with my professor the other about day about the level of commitment, and dedication given by students who are in Fraternity's and Sorority's.


He felt as though, organization as such, show contingency to the reality of education, they as he stated in so many ways that they interfere with students education.

Hmmmm....Interesting tidbit, is what I'm thinking??


Contrary to popular belief, Fraternity's and Sorority's support, encourage, and demand scholastic achievement--the negative connotation displayed, and spoken from his opinions--holds truth to the few who allow the social and interactive aspect of Greek organizations to interfere with their class work.

One's things for sure, I'm passionate, certain, and driven with and too the things that I make of my life. Setbacks (for me) lead to triumph, adversity and most of all RESILIENCE!


Joining an organization doesn't make you who you ARE, Why you ask?? Because, that factor among many determined your Acceptance. Therefore, I nor anyone, will interfere with my education--Persistence, Ambitions, Goals, and most of all Faith determines my Success!

(((sreaming))) Why are YOU Blogging!!??!!

Fortunately enough, I feel I still have time with that being said over the next eight post I will reshoot, post, and speak about photos I've recently shot. SO that you can get a better feel of what interest me!


Its certain, I have an interest in FASHION! I love the sense of the Uniqueness in which we/I respresent self--as stated and defined below, "the way in which we manner ourselves."


So as I begin to post, I will show images, places, and etc, that showcast that specific manner--Uniqueness.

Personal Statement

A prevailing custom of my own style and personality manners the way in which I showcase my work. My passion is the state of style and uniqueness . I’m interested in how we as humans fashion LIFE through our very own sense of style. LIFE is the essence of all things, and FASHION is the socializing style I possess. Creating a sense of my own style speaks through the images in which I capture.

How do I define FASHION?? Look below...

FASH-ION (fas-uh n)

–noun

1. a prevailing custom or style of dress, etiquette, socializing,


2. manner; way; mode


4. the make or form of anything:


5. a kind; sort--All fashions of people make up the world.

Mark Borthwick--I had to post him!


THE fashion photographer Mark Borthwick, whose images have appeared in provocative magazines like Purple, Self Service and Italian Vogue, has always had an unorthodox approach to his work.
“I like to take the fashion out it,” he said. “And make it more human.” Which is to say, he eschews airbrushed glamour for a kind of carefree, sun-soaked innocence; not surprisingly, his new book, aptly titled “Not in Fashion,” is more akin to a journal than a glossy Rizzoli monograph.
It features photos that span his two-decade career, including early fashion shots of a baby-faced Chloƫ Sevigny (left) and Angela Lindvall (slide 3).
The pages are littered with newspaper clippings, hand-scrawled notes and family photos intentionally blown out by overexposing the film.




The Two Most Infamous Citites: I ♥ these places




Los Angeles & New York
With fashion, art, film, television, and music, and soo much more behind their belt. There's no need to find a vacation spot that brings quality entertainment.
Above are maps from a study, called “The Geography of Buzz.”
The authors, Elizabeth Currid, an assistant professor in the School of Policy, Planning and Development at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and Sarah Williams, the director of the Spatial Information Design Lab at Columbia University‘s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, mined thousands of photographs from Getty Images that chronicled flashy parties and smaller affairs on both coasts for a year, beginning in March 2006. The maps show the density of different types of cultural events in New York and Los Angeles.
I posted these photos because these are two cities of which, I look forward to residing in, they show a sense of personality and vibrancy with just colorful dots. Similarities and characteristics of which, I, Myself possess.
(Smiling....hehehe..I know I'm conceited--at least their not photos of me)
