mc studio assignment

Last night I borrowed Kristen and Riley for a studio photography assignment at Montgomery College in Rockville. I take the class with Taylor and we decided to use the same models so we could both get our homework done early. We spent nearly 4 hours posing and laughing and trying not to ruin expensive equipment. What a night!












Thank you SO much guys! My professor looked at these today and he really liked them. You're the best!

Oh life, with your colorful surprises

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2006. Remember that day, folks. Because on that day Lydia Jane ceased to exist on the planet we call earth as simply a high school homeschooler, but also as a college student. That's right. I'm now taking Intro to Digital Photography taught by Jon Goell at the Rockville Montgomery College campus.

Yep, you guessed it - this is the post you hope and pray your professor never stumbles upon and thinking "oh my goodness, what a nerd" but I had to post it. Firsts are a big thing to me. I treasure them all up. So anyways, here's a couple pictures of the lab.




My biggest fear about the class was it's 5 hour length, but the time seriously flew by. I mean, who can complain when we each get a Mac and two monitors to ourselves? Oh, I'm going to learn so much I can hardly wait.

After class, Natalie made a surprise visit to my house. I seriously love this kid. She brings joy wherever she joys. Strawbee, thanks for making me smile so hard I look ill in all the pictures.

She gets up

then she goes outside

She don't know what she does
But it feels alright

She says I

I'm a sunny girl
Yeah I'm feeling good
And it's a shiny world

She feels good
She feels great today
When I asked she said
"Hey, it's the Happy Club way"
