The Hathaways // Lauren and Cora

Today I spent some time with these two beautys. One reason I love film so much- I didnt edit these. No color or light correction. I also took digital today, and I didn't even love them once I got these back.  They also have there slight imperfections, due to me learning I need to also check the back of my Minolta. I get a little light spot when the tape falls off (tape? Yeah... a little rough. Working on getting that fixed).

My friend Rachel // Part II

Rachel is my new friend here in Chicago. I asked her if I could take pictures of her in her adorable home. Rachel is a pretty adorable homemaker if I must say so myself, she would never say so, which makes you love her all the more. Before I came over she was making some bread to go into the oven. I asked if she would wait until I got there so I could take a few pictures of it. We plan to do another shoot with the finished product. 

Here is to Rachel.

Meet who I prefer to call HillsBills. I have always loved her (as anyone who knows her for one second does), but it wasn't until I took these pictures of her that I realized how obsessed I am with the way she looks. Her eyes are like ice, her hair is always perfect, and I want her freckles. Then to top it off she is the funniest girl I know. Meet Hilary.
