Ruth || The Beauty

Meeting Ruth and her husband, Nate, has been a blessing. They are some of the most welcoming, kindhearted people I have sincerely had the pleasure of getting to know. Added bonus: very talented photographers in Seattle. Ruth and I got together this weekend to take advantage of the massive wind storm that passed through Seattle and play around with our cameras. I always imagined photographing another artist would be nerve wrecking and intimidating - but it surprisingly wasn't the case with us. At one point early in the shoot I apologized to Ruth for my "stupid" pose and in her comforting voice assured me it wasn't because it "was the perfect time to experiment." She was definitely right. It was an ideal shoot; So much patience and trust in one another to create art.

The Handy Phone

I never understood why people were obsessed with taking phone pictures. At most, I would only take 4-5 pictures with it every other month. Then there was Instagram; my sister told me it was something I needed - "Lisa, don't be dumb, just sign up already!" It was only after the 500th time she begged me when I became annoyed and signed up. The more I played around with phone pictures - the more into it I became. It's certainly convenient, that's for sure. And I don't have to hull around a 3 pound camera everywhere I go. So that's always nice. Here are just a few fun shots I've taken since the inception of my phone-photo days. Oh, and before I forget - I created an autumn playlist for you all! I used to be a radio DJ for 6 years and this was my favorite season to create mixes for - all cuddled up in a thick blanket with some hot tea. So I just wanted to share a few songs with you to bundled up with. You can find it here: Autumn Tunes  Featured artists are listed below these pics. Happy October! Enjoy!
