We're gonna have a good day!



Just quickly popping in to leave you guys with this song. Matt reminded me of its existence and I just wanted to share it with you. It's been a fantastic week, with hot weather, lots of good news, lots of good friends, and many adventures.

Hope you have a good day!

The other day I got to make a couple photos with my floormate and her boyfriend. Aren't they just the cutest? You can check out more photos on my facebook page, and if you live in Anchorage, I'm available for shoots during the summer! You can go here for more details.

Have a great day!

my week in instagram #43






It's been a really fun week, filled with making photo props, shooting, going to senior portfolio reviews, going to film festivals, looking at cool animals, and getting lost in an art museum. Next week will be really hectic, as it is the last week of regular classes, so I warn you right now that I'll probably be missing for a couple days. Never fear though, after this week and the next, it's summer!

You can follow all my instagram pictures @impulsings !

film friday (on saturday): dove real beauty sketches



I'm sure many of you have seen this by now, but I still wanted to share it. Matt sent it to me a little bit after it was posted, and I really loved the message behind it. Despite all the controversy that it's gotten (some people saying that it doesn't cater to different body types, some saying that it puts too much emphasis on physical beauty, blah blah), we have to keep in mind the message behind it. No matter what, physical beauty will always be judged. And while I think people put too much time and worry into making themselves look a certain way to please other people, we can't just push aside our physical qualities. I mean, our bodies are meant to be celebrated and we should celebrate our natural beauty. What I really love about this video is that it shows how much too critical we are of ourselves, and how the rest of the world actually sees us. You are so much more beautiful than you know. And it's the inner beauty that really shines on the outside.

So don't forget that you are beautiful, despite what you may think. Because there are people who see you and they see an amazing person with joy and happiness radiating from within, and that's what really makes you beautiful.

Have a wonderful day.
