diapers and skinny jeans

                                  The camera collection is growing!  The only camera not featured on here yet our all my instax prints.  I'll have to scan them in here sometime during my 8 day working streak somehow.  I hope I can get them up soon.  Then I promise I'll stop blog vomiting about SXSW! :) Photos taken primarily with Nikon FM10 with 50mm 1.8 Nikkor lens, Canon 60d, and Nikon d300 with fisheye nikkor lens.

  These guys were a highlight at the SXSW American Apparel Flea Market , and I am so stoked to order another pair of cool frames.  Erick's should be coming in around 2 weeks so I'll make sure to take some photos to show you.  At the Flea Market they were like $84 for frames *WITH* lenses, and I think regularly priced online at around $110 or so.  All the pics link to their site, or you can go here  instead. Online sales begin April 4th, 2011

Just got back from Austin.  I'll be spending a majority of my night/day tomorrow uploading pics, developing prints, and converting video so I can get you all caught up on the magic that is SXSW. (And after a total of 40hrs in a car to and from, my back is in desperate need of a long bubble bath.) Talk to you all soon!

As some of you know, I'll be heading down to the SXSW festival in Austin tonight and have developed an all-around guide for anyone traveling to a music festival this summer.  SXSW isn't a camping festival, so you don't have to worry about tents, food, or any other outdoors-y gear like that.  I'm actually remotely thankful that we'll be in a hotel this year because my growing pregnant belly wouldn't enjoy sleeping on cold ground much right now.  (As much as I do enjoy that). Here's what's coming with me to the fest: - DSLR AND SLR camera.  (Told ya I couldn't make up my mind.) - Sunglasses   because you can never find them easy enough or cheap enough once you're down there. - One zip up hoodie  Austin is 80 degrees during the day but it's 60 at night. - Thrift store skirts   Don't blind fellow concertgoers with your white, Chicagoan gams. - Backpack purse      So much easier than a shoulder bag. -  Flats and Sandals   ...
