TUNED IN: Live Photographs

Hey guys! This week's TUNED IN post is going to be a little bit different.  A few months ago, I was working with online music review + culture site, The Neon Mix.  I would attend shows with them on occasion and photograph the bands during their set.

Anyways, below are some (just a little sample) of the live band photographs I have taken.  I didn't want to spend a million years digging through my archives, so I picked some photos that were readily available.  That being said, I thought it might be fun to share some of my photography - because I haven't really done so as of yet.

**Do you know who the artists are?  The venues? Can you guess?**  Haha.. maybe you were even at the shows!  Say hi next time - I'm usually the girl with the massive camera lens pushing my way through the crowd.

Expect to see more of my photographs on the blog (it's a summer goal of mine to take more photos - it gets so hard with work + life - but NO EXCUSES!!!), and a PHOTOGRAPHY section added to my PORTFOLIO soon! 

 

 

**For those of you who didn't want to guess.. All shows took place in Toronto, ON.

PHOTO LOVE: Throwback Thursday

Hello friends!  It certainly seems like this week has just flown by, doesn't it?  I guess that's just time in general though, you turn your head and it's been a year.

Since it is Throwback Thursday, I thought I would share some old photos of summer days past to brighten up this dull + rainy day.  Enjoy my messy hair and wacky outfits.  Oh the 90's.. I was really into mixing prints back then.

Hope you enjoy my little trip down memory lane!

At the zoo in '92! I really like the palette of my outfit.  If you can't tell, I'm the little one with the blonde hair.  I'm sitting with my cousins Marie + Laura @ the Toronto Zoo near the bears (judging from the sign).

My friend Sarah + I at the beach in 1994.  Again the colours on my bathing suit are all sorts of awesome.

Chilling on the dock.  I'm rocking a jailbird chic look. Note my messy hair + face (this lasts through 1999).  I'm sitting with family friends.  We were at their cottage in Lagoon City, on Lake Simcoe.

I think this photo is from 1996.  My aunt was visiting from North Carolina (she opened a B&B in Asheville, NC).  I had just finished playing soccer.  Two of my aunts, my mom, my grandmother, my cousin + my sister are also pictured.
