About Me

My photo
I'm Alyx. I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, or have sex. I'm in a committed long distance relationship. I majored in fine arts at an art high school in NC. I now live in Sarasota, FL and major in photography. I take photos because I love making people feel beautiful. All my self portraits are taken in my bathroom. I don't claim to know a lot about photography, but I want to learn and that's what matters.

Paper bags.

More random AP Art shit. The longer you look at something, the more attached to it you grow. I'm bound to put more old stuff up here before the summer's over - just for old time's sake. *On a side note, I made a perfect 5 on my AP Art exam. While that may be an expected score to all you other incredible young artists out there, that was one of the largest milestones in my life. For once, I truly feel like an artist.

It's a job I'd do for free.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of photographing Frank and Sandra LoNano's 50th Anniversary celebration. (: This was my first paid job, so I was ridiculously nervous and had bad social anxiety - knowing barely anyone there. But in the end, it turned out great. I got to finally try out my new Canon EOS 5D Mark II with it's 50mm and 85mm lenses, and 430EX II Speedlite. Here's a few sample pics.
