Late Night Blog Post About My Feelings

The biggest criticism that I get is that I might be uncohesive at this point in time, like I don’t have a “style.” What is Shirley? Editorial, or commercial, or beauty, or environmental portraiture? Black and white? Color? Studio? On-Location? High-Depth? Low-depth?

Ahhhh, I’m 
18 years old. I’m trying a lot of different things. Is it absolutely the end of the world if you’re one of those people that don’t know and just try different things and happen to create what you like?


When you’re young, it can be really difficult to define yourself, so forcing yourself to do things a certain way isn’t smart if you’re just not sure yet.
 

Over time, we will all notice the things we like and the things we don’t like, the things we do and the things we don’t do. That’s style. 

Patrick Demarchelier said, “Style comes naturally. When I work, I don’t think about my style, just about the pictures I am taking.”

“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short, but in aiming too low and achieving our mark.” —Michaelangelo
Summer!

Last day of classes was today…but that doesn’t mean I’ll stop learning!

I’ll be primarily spending this summer as a photo intern at Interview Magazine, and maybe moonlighting freelance as a photo assistant. Hopefully, I’ll have time to keep things fresh and shoot for myself as well! 

I’ll try to keep it consistent but no promises. I’ve got a boyfriend and a family to enjoy on the weekends <3

My handsome boyfriend Tyler all dressed up! Taken with my new Fuji Instax at my company&#8217;s banquet.
