Faint dreams creeping, endless...

 - vintage blouse
 - 50s wool skirt
 - Rachel Comey boots
 - vintage barrette from Lawrence
 - listening to: Chelsea Wolfe - Apokalypsis "Mer"

I'm finally getting around to experimenting a bit with my new camera.  I'm quite clumsy and have dropped and broken more than one little point and shoot camera so I'm super paranoid every time I pick the new one up that I'm going to somehow manage to break it.  I was also hesitant to put in on my tripod for outfit photos since a strong wind once knocked over one of my smaller cameras that was attached to the tripod and it was never the same.  But I ended up taking the chance and so far, so good (fingers crossed). Now I just have to learn a bit more about metering the photos since all of the ones I took ended up a bit overexposed.  I was able to salvage this one.  Yes, I'm super pale, but I'm not a ghost!

Your new camera is working wonderfully. I recently lost a camera due to wind and a tripod. And I love your new header!

what a pretty outfit. I also love the reflection of another old house in the window.

What camera did you get? Pictures are beautiful!

I really like your hair :)

Your hair is so beautiful Jennifer! I'm loving your curls! And you should embrace your "fair", "milky" skin! (I like to use these words instead of pale, it seems more exotic!)

I love that blouse -- and your haircolor! I'm a redhead too, and I'd like to go lighter, like yours, for spring and summer.

I really like your outfit! But I also really wanted to comment on how much I like the rest of the picture too. The window and the reflection are gorgeous.

What a lovely outfit! All the tones work so well with each other. I think pale skin is much prettier than tanned skin, not to mention more elegant!

Your skin is gorgeous the way it is, Jennifer! Taking your own photos is a PAIN, so props lady! I think this photo came out beautifully :)
