Olivia and Jason's Wedding

These two have been my and kydens friends for over a year now.. And we love them to death, there big day finally happened so I will let the pictures show how fantastic this ceremony was ;)

Week - Oh wait.. Uh.. Fall tiime :)

It's really bizarre to write a blog not involving weeks of summer!

This time of year is always fantastic, I really do adore the monsoon season transforming into fall. From the smell of rain to admiring the fall trees, it really is perfect. 

I know you are dying to hear my school drama so here it tis.
I was enrolled in two photo classes for this semester, I debated if I wanted to even pursue this degree at NAU since the progress plan and class format isn't really want I'm looking for in a photo degree. I ended up deciding to take two photo classes just to see how they felt and if I wanted to pay money to get this degree at NAU. Later, when we were taking care of FAFSA and loans, I found that when going part time at NAU your wallet gets rizaped.. They wanted me to take a thousand dollar loan just to cover my classes. I wondered if it was worth getting a thousand dollars in debt just for closure on something I was really half ass on anyways. No. I dropped them. I was really upset at first because I had so many people pestering me.. telling me "Kelsey you are so young you need to be in school" "You have so much potential" "You should really get your degree"
I got over the stupid ridicule and took a new perspective,
I'm 18, I have a god damn associate degree well over 90 college credits. I'm a successful photographer and get paid for my work without the degree, and will continue to grow as a photographer with or without it. 
Will I get a bachelors degree? I don't know probably, but I have plenty of time to figure out what, how and when I want to get it.
My husbands degree to me is more priority than a photography degree so if I have to work full time for a bit to get him through college then I will gladly do it, Compromise my friends..

End of drama

OH so I've been trying to get back into random object cute photographer kelsey mode.. its a work in progress.. not being in payson living with my parents.. having more free time.. It just yeah.. no motivation but here is a little peek into that 

Good bye for now =3

Wow summer has come to an end.. way too fast..

I'm lame because I didn't take ANY pictures this week.. last week of summer you tend to just overplan..

But needless to say I'm really happy with my summer.

I'm blessed for all of the friends I got to spend it with and make wonderful memories.

Huzzaaaahhh!!! I started a garden.. it's a little dinky but its all we need. Got some bells.. hopefully something will come of them ;)

Week 10 of 15

This week I got to enjoy my family in Payson just briefly for the 4th, My momma got a new kitty, I'm so stoked that she found something that brings so much joy to her. His name is Jinxy, and he has a lot of personality, he fits my parents and my childhood dog Shelby quite well :)

And of course I got my first legit firework shot.. which well.. I'm purty stoked about :)

Week 9 of 15

You tend to find that good comes out of every bad scenario. Last fall I got stuck taking a public speaking class for my Photography degree, I can rant forever on how ridiculous it is for a photo degree to need this class and not a journalism major. I hate public speaking, or hated. I really disliked the class but it did benefit me a lot. One of the main reasons I'm glad I took this class is I made friends with this pretty lady!

Kristen instantly became such a great friend and even almost a year later we make an effort to hang out whenever possible. Oh and of course she is a photo major!

Besides taking pictures of my gorgeous friend. It was a pretty eventful week! We went to the creek and had a baking night with friends. We made bacon pancakes and cheesecake. Yeah it was legit.

And kyden and I made this!

Gorgeous am I right? Lemon chicken potatoes and green beans.. OMMA NOMMA!
