                <description><![CDATA[ Been quite some time since my last post on here. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and also hope you got your tummies full, I did! Another thing I'm lacking on doing is photo shoots, I know I'm slow on posting photos here but the zombie series from October was actually my last shoot <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> been too long.. to be honest I don't really like this time of year, the cold weather makes me want to stay inside cuddled in blankets and I get lazy and un-inspired. I really want to change up my style and experiment more. I think I'm stepping away from the horror and gore type of photos for a while and going to start doing softer, prettier things before I completely scare away my viewers and they think I'm insane <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> Hah.<br /><br />Another thing I wanted to share with you guys is that I have a YouTube account where I have behind the scenes videos of some of my photo shoots. I haven't had a chance to do videos of my latest shoots but I hope to get a new one up soon of my next shoot.<br />My YouTube account is - <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.youtube.com/user/KristenLanaePhoto">[link]</a><br />I also have a Twitter you can follow me at. My updates aren't photography related, it's just personal but here's the link for that - <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.twitter.com/kristen_lanae">[link]</a><br /><br />Well, that's all I got to say for now <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> Happy Holidays everyone!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />What inspires you the most? What do you do to help get inspired?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ of being on deviantART as of yesterday <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Made me think back to the first day I joined. This was the first art site I ever joined and it was also the reason I even started taking pictures, so I just want to thank you deviantART and all of the people I follow on here, you guys all inspired me and got me to where I am today. <br /><br />I've been shooting and uploading a lot more here lately which feels great. I had taken almost a year break and it feels good to be creating again. <br /><br />Anyways, you can check out my Flickr page I post more stuff there. I tend to only post shots I think are good enough here but you can see everything over at my other site. <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristenlanea">[link]</a><br /><br />Goodnight! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So i've been in Arizona for a month now.. all I can say is it's so freakin hot. I walk out the door and in five seconds I have already broken out in a sweat. And don't even think about walking outside without shoes on or i'll come back with like 3rd degree burns on my feet..lol. I guess that's my only complaint though. It feels nice to be in a new place and have a chance to start a new life.. which I really needed. <br /><br />As far as taking pictures, I have nooo motivation what so ever. The heat doesn't help either. But today I finally made myself take pictures.. even if it was just silly snap shots or whatever, I made myself do it. <br /><br />I start college in a couple of months.. I'm really scared. I still haven't even chosen a major or anything yet. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> I just don't know what I want to do. I'm starting to feel like I need to go for photography, like it's what I'm meant to do or something. I honestly can't see myself doing anything else. But I don't know. I hate having to make decisions. If it was up to me i'd do a little of everything.. be a doctor, photographer, astronaut, nascar driver, etc.. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /> really I'm serious <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br />Anyways.. that's about it. Not much going on. Except I'm in absolute love with the show True Blood. God it's amazing. Ok I'm ending this random journal now.<br /><br />xoxo Kristen<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hello everyone! It's been months since I was last active on here. <br /><br />I'm not sure if I mentioned here but I won't be going to California next year to that art school. I guess I had a change of life plans. I don't really know what i'm going to do as a career, but i'll be moving to Arizona with my family. And photography will always stay with me as a hobby and side job even. I'm going to enroll in a community college next week, and after I take my basics there i'll transfer to ASU. I guess I really thought about things and found that photography is really difficult to take on as a career and also that I feel more comfortable when im doing it as a hobby and personal kind of thing. <br /><br />But anyways, I had ordered a camera remote from the wolf camera in december and have been waiting months for it and it's just now coming in so im going to pick it up tomorrow. And I had also lost my tripod mount and happened to find it in my messy room today. AAAAAND I found my reflector disc so YAY I can finally get back to taking pictures. Plus all the crazy things that have been going on have settled down and I think within the next month i'll have more time to do photos. I'm ready to start doing creative stuff again. I have to admit the past year my pictures have been pretty dull.. so I need to start getting ideas together. <br /><br />Well other than that, my 18th birthday is coming up. April 12th. I feel like im growing up too fast. I'm going to miss being a carefree and irresponsible kid hahaha. I'm going to spend my birthday weekend at the casino <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> and also at six flags with a friend. Should be fun.<br /><br />Hope everyone is doing great, sorry for disappearing for so long. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I went and ordered my Canon 50D yesterday at Wolf Camera. It should be here on Wednesday. What's even better was that the price had went down $200 yesterday morning. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> Can't wait until it comes, hopefully ill get time to play with it before Friday when I leave to Arizona and go have my surgery on the 22nd. <br /><br />But anyways, I really really need a wireless remote but im not sure which one because I really don't know anything about them and i've never used one. Does anybody know which ones are compatible with the 50D, wireless, not too expensive, and work well? <br /><br />I need to get it ordered soon.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />xoxo Kristen<br /><br />PS; Anyone have Facebook? I just got one (don't know why) and need some friends. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=754796003&ref">[link]</a><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=p" title="=p (Razz)" />rofile<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Happy Thanksgiving! I am so stuffed, I ate so much food today, but it was yummy. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />I have a lot of things to update on, so this journal will probably be long.<br /><br />Okay, so first off, just want to thank the wonderful people who answered to my last journal, you all helped me out a lot. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> And to let you know, I have decided to go ahead and move out to California next year to attend that amazing school, and try to become something among the thousands of competition I will have. I'm really nervous!<br /><br />I know I haven't been doing any new photos lately and im sad about that, there's a lot going on and a lot to be done in this last month or so of this year. So probably no new pictures until next year. <br /><br />I'm supposed to be getting a new camera for Christmas though, I can't wait. I still have no clue which camera to choose. I'm also going to finally get a camera remote for self portraits. That will save a lot trouble that I always go through with self portraits. <br /><br />Also my 'Insecurities' photo is going to be published in a Japanese magazine, which is supposed to come out this Saturday. And I should be getting a copy mailed to me, so we shall see! <br /><br />And for the bigger news, i'm finally getting rhinoplasty, and were still scheduling but I should be getting it done next month during winter break. Im so excited..and nervous. I've wanted this for a long time though. <br /><br />Well me and the family are about to go watch a movie, so i'll have to end this here. I hope everyone's enjoying the holiday's, I sure am.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> Kristen<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hello everyone <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />So, I just got home from a quick weekend trip to San Francisco. I flew there to tour the Academy of Art University, the school i've been interested in for a year now. It was amazing! A lot better than I was expecting. And I love the city too, it's great. <br /><br />I will be applying into the university soon, and I'm going to start doing as many client shoots as I can so I can build a portfolio. I have a chance to show a portfolio to the school before I start and get scholarship from it. So I need to start booking photo shoots soon. I was really wanting to get a new camera before I started though. <br /><br />Although I'm very excited, I'm nervous too. The other photography students there have amaaaazing work, so it's going to be competitive. I'm still debating exactly what kind of photography I want to get into. There's digital, traditional, black and white, fashion, portrait, commercial, and some others. <br /><br />My dreams are slowly starting to become reality, but I have a lot of work to do before I will reach my goals.<br /><br />Just thought I would give a little update on what's been going on, hope all is well!<br /><br />Kristen <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Who else loves the new dA? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Totally different and took a little getting used to, but I personally love it.<br /><br />Anyway, this is just a really random journal posted out of boredom..but I just wanted to update a little.<br /><br />In about a month im flying out to California to look around at the schools and hopefully decide on one! I'm really excited and nervous at the same time, I just can't get used to the thought of being out on my own though! <br /><br />Haven't had any photo shoots here this past month.. I have the motivation I think, but im disgusted with so many self portraits but I have no one around here to photograph. I am getting people who are wanting photo shoots (mainly children) so I said i'll probably start booking this October. I really HAVE to get a portfolio together this year and have it ready next spring, I have no more time to procrastinate...<br /><br />Well...I decided today to forget going out and buying the new Iphone (which is tempting, but I already have the first one) and start saving up for a new camera! I would benefit so much more from a new camera and not a phone that I basically already have.. I think I have decided on getting a Canon 40D, it sounds like the perfect camera for me, plus it would take me ages to save up for a 5D! But I already have the 20D and I love it so I would like to stay in that series anyway. I only need about $200 more to save for it, although I really wanted to spend some of my saved cash shopping in California this summer... maybe mom can help me? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> It's for a good cause ya know, lol.<br /><br />Well I hope everyones having a nice summer!<br /><br />Kristen<3<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey everyone, im finally updating.<br /><br />Well I think im ready to get a new camera! Only one more year and i'll be off to college and i've had this same camera since the beginning so I think it's time for a new one.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong I love my camera to death it's just time for a fresh start, and an upgrade. I have a Canon 20D right now. <br /><br />So I wanted to know which new Canon camera is probably the best choice? Which is your personal favorite?<br /><br />Im definitly staying with Canon.. my mom has a Nikon but I just don't like it. I don't like the feel of it or how the pictures come out, guess im a Canon girl.<br /><br />Any help would be great (:<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Obviously I have some weird addiction to pink especially in photoshoots, how ironic I don't even like the color. Im supposed to do another shoot, probably similar to todays, tomorrow with my sister. It's been ages since she let me take photos of her.<br /><br />Well I seem to be getting back into my creative self, probably because of all the stress i've been under the past couple of weeks...whatever works because photography is truely what I love doing..I hope to be doing it for a long time.<br /><br />Well I can't think of anything else that is new going on, except my complexion is getting a little ghostly, need to get out in the sun.<br /><br />Kristen <3<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow, I haven't updated in a few months.<br /><br />Hope everyone has had a Happy Easter (if you celebrate it that is...) I know I have! All the cute fluffy things, and pink, etc.. inspired me to do a photoshoot today. I already uploaded one, and you can see the rest on my Flickr account.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristenlanea">[link]</a><br /><br />My birthday is only a few weeks away, im turning 17, it's pretty exciting. And my half year anniversary with Chad in two weeks. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> We are so happy.<br /><br />Also, I have again submitted a photo in a JPG Mag contest, there's only 8 days left to vote, and if you would like to check out my photo and contribute a vote, that'd be nice!

                <description><![CDATA[ Happy New Year! <br />
<br />
Hope you all have had a good holiday. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> Im still on holiday break from school, we got two weeks off, so i've been relaxing and finally had time to make an update. I haven't really given much thought but a few of my new year resolutions are...<br />
<br />
1. Take lots and lots more photos!... I have really been slacking ever since school started back<br />
2. Get more creative with my photos<br />
3. Get other models instead of so many self portraits. I need to start feeling more comfortable when working with others, I just like doing self portraits because I go in knowing exactly what look and pose I want.<br />
4. Focus in school and bring up my grades<br />
5. Visit the college I plan on going to, and start preparing to get in<br />
6. Spend more time with my friends. It seems im starting to lose time for them and slip away.<br />
7. Just overall be happier<br />
<br />
So what resolutions have you made?<br />
<br />
Im ready to start over fresh with 2008!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Haven't been on dA in what seems like forever. I just want to say thanks and that I appreciate all the encouragement and nice words from everyone. <br />
<br />
This past month or two has been crazy. I don't find much time to get online which means I don't ever have time to read messages and reply back. If it's very important you will almost always get a reply if you note me. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
God knows I haven't had time to pick up my camera. Being back in school.. (and in trouble, haha).. occupies all of my time. Just a week or two ago I backed my car into a pole, and I never seem to be able to keep up with homework. <br />
<br />
Have you guys bought and been playing Halo 3? I have! It's my new addiction. I got my Xbox Live connected and I can't pull myself away from it. My other all time favorite game should be coming out in a week or two also... Guitar Hero III. Not to mention it's almost Halloween and Saw 4 will be coming out. I love this month. <br />
<br />
Anyways.. im pretty low on inspiration and motivation so not sure when i'll have new photos. I don't really have any people to model for me either, and im sick of being the one in the photo all the time. If you guys have any ideas, please tell!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I don't think it has seen the outside of its camera bag in a month. Though, I did have a commissioned photoshoot yesterday, with my hair dresser, but that's it. I'm home sick, so is China, it's going around. Me and her plan to have a photoshoot today, I sure hope so. I really need to create something, before I lose it. <br />
<br />
I am really really looking forward to Christmas, because I am going to be getting a new camera. I have my eyes and heart set on the lovely Canon 40D, of course. I won't even look around at any others, I wouldn't want anything but it. I also need to get a new laptop, I have completely destroyed this one <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> not to mention, it's almost two years old, time to upgrade everything.<br />
<br />
Anyways, I am really just posting something to let everyone know i'm alive. I know I haven't gotten to reply to any comments hardly, but eh.. I was a homeschooler for two years, and I just started public school a week ago and it really takes up the majority of my time.<br />
<br />
At school I am in Art 2 drawing class, which is funny since im not well with drawing at all but thats beside the point, I was very annoyed and kinda.. saddened I guess when the instructor started going on about drawing and how it takes time and blah blah I can't really remember, but he said something like "drawing is not simple and easy like photography, you don't just hold the camera and click the button and have a photo, it actually takes effort.." im not sure on how exact that is on wording, but thats pretty much what was said. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/blankstare.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=|" title=":| (Blank Stare)" /> Ahh.. just frustrating.<br />
<br />
So im very sorry. I am very thankful for all the wonderful comments, encouragement, the DD I received not too long ago, and all the features and such. You don't know how much it means to me, and it's what keeps me motivated, thanks!<br />
<br />
I have to end this here, and im off to go do some photos..<br />

<br />
<br />
I just randomly logged on today and I had hundreds and HUNDREDS of messages and I had been logged on just yesterday and nothing was there. Lol.. was I featured somewhere or something?<br />
<br />
Anyways I just want to thank everyone of you! Please forgive me that I can't answer all of the messages, I read every single one and appreciate them all but I just don't have the time. This summer is pretty busy for me. <br />
<br />
I'm getting a license in just two more days! It's going to help me tons with photography because I will now be able to go out and find some locations other than the only three that I have. I plan on doing lots of photoshoots with China, and possibly some new models. <br />
<br />
So as for now.. im just taking a little break, but i'll be back soon with some new stuff. <br />
<br />
Love,<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow, I kept wishing the rain would stop, and it did.. its still been raining everyday but only very late at night. What luck huh? So with that, i've been getting a lot of new pictures, you know where to find them. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br />

<br />
I uploaded my recent favorite, 'Fallen Angel', here at dA. <br />
<br />
I have been expressing a lot of deep feelings through my most recent photos. I'm really glad to be back to myself.<br />
<br />
China visited, but we never got to the photoshoot we were supposed to do. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> She leaves for Missouri this weekend, I really would like to have one. Just a quick little update here. <br />
<br />
And if you guys haven't already, watch Transformers! Best movie of the year hands down, I promise!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Pretty pretty please make it go away! Here it is, early July, and almost everyday this summer it has rained. Actually, it's raining right now. Oh, and did I mention this is Texas? It's insane. <br />
<br />
I really want nice sunny weather so I can have photoshoots, all my latest photos have been taken indoors under low lighting, and the quality hasn't been great. I haven't posted anything new here yet, but you can have a look over at my Flickr  ---->   <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristenlanea">[link]</a>  <----<br />
<br />
I sent notices out on myspace saying I really could use some new models, I got quite a few responses, so it's nice to know that I have some people if I need them. Although, my shyness might interfere with that idea. I really need to work on being more open with people.<br />
<br />
Oh and if your wondering, my trip to Hawaii was pretty fun, I had a good time. It felt nice to be worry free and just relax! And the weather..quite lovely. <br />
<br />
But anyways, just wanted to make an update. Tomorrow i'll be spending the day alone and I am praying for no rain so I can create something.<br />
<br />
PS; I am ALWAYS looking around for inspiration and would love to hear your ideas on what kind of concept/topic/etc I should do in a photo. If you have any..please tell! ]]></description>

<br />
How is everyones summer going? What plans do you have?<br />
<br />
Well I just wanted to make a quick update. Monday I will be on my way to Hawaii, for a week. Leaving at 3 in the morning, unfortunately though. I have a few little series started here recently, but I am putting them aside. I want to relax, and refresh myself. And I want no limits, and am setting no goals. Just relax. But I will definitly take lots and lots of photos, promise. <br />
<br />
I feel very lonely, empty, depressed. I don't have many friends it seems. I guess I will manage. For now I only want to fully dedicate myself to my art. I miss it tons.<br />
<br />
I am looking forward to a license that I will receive i n 40 days! <br />
<br />
Anyways, I will update when I return, I do want to try and get more active around here.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yesterday my sister and I went out and had a little photoshoot, I just was playing around, and practicing. I got some nice shots and for now, you can look over at my flickr account; <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristenlanea">[link]</a><br />
<br />
In a couple of hours im going over to Chinas house and we plan to have a photoshoot either today, or tomorrow sometime, hopefully today. It's going to be a fashion type thing I think. <br />
<br />
I'm going to attend a birthday party on April 7th, and photograph my friends band, which might be fun. I also am being commissioned to photograph a child on April 10th and im trying to practice for that, trying new angles, that sort of stuff. Hope that goes good!<br />
<br />
I'm not sure if I told anyone but the Red Cross of Georgia is considering using a photo of mine for a booth background at their Red Cross centre, or a poster of some sort. Im not quite sure, and im waiting on an answer back from them. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
And other than that..April 12th is my birthday. I will be sixteen, and this summer i'll be getting a drivers license! <br />
<br />
So far this coming month is going to be busy for me, next week i'll probably be uploading new pictures, hope you guys are doing well.<br />
<br />
Love..<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Hello everyone! I have to say, im doing much better since my last journal. Im very happy, and with this happiness I finally have motivation to start having photoshoots again. I have quite a bit of inspiration and everything. I also wanted to ask is there any ideas you guys have? or would like to see? I'd love to hear, and maybe even try them.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Ugh..this year has started off terrible for me. Just things that have been going on in my personal life.. Not only that but I have no desire to even take pictures at all anymore. I truly hope things will look up soon. It would be nice if I could just get away from it all, alone, for just a week. Me and my camera, no worries. I want summer time to come fast. I'm not sure if you will see anything from me soon or not. I'm supposed to be photographing a friend of mines band sometime this month. And I might try and stay home by myself more often and start taking pictures..so probably expect a lot of self portraits again..but much more conceptual/emotive. I need to let out my feelings somehow, and what better way, eh?<br />
<br />
Have a nice week.. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I've recently became very inspired. I have the perfect place where i'd like to shoot it, and i'll probally just use myself as the model, but..im not really sure how im going to go about shooting it. The ideas I have are very dark art and romantic concepts. So..i'll see how it turns out. Also I need to work on a request for someone for stock photos, hope I can create what he is hoping for. And..I won't be going back to high school this year, unfortunately. They said I have to wait until next year, since this year is almost gone, I would get no credits, it would be a waste of my time. Also I have scheduled my first drive time, I have to do 7, 2 hour drives with an instructor, then in about.. 5 months I will have a license! I need to get busy and start working on some projects I have in mind..im sooo lazy.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well im off to China's house today, we may do a photoshoot down at the lake if we can take our selves away from playing Guitar Hero, lol. Oh, and incase you didn't know I homeschool, but I plan on going back to high school next week. I need more of a social life, so it's for the best. I have to talk to the principal and see if I have to take a placement test or not, lets pray I don't! But other than that.. my sixteenth birthday is coming soon, April 12. Unlike most 16 year olds, im not asking for a car, something else i've wanted for a long time. I'm not telling what it is yet <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /> not until im sure of getting it. Anyways, im off..<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm finally starting to get back into photography, though im not doing anything too creative yet, im just happy to be taking pictures again. I finally feel like I have found my "personal style". I don't know..but I have a lot of ideas, and I must say Lara Jades recent crime scene and phobia photos have greatly inspired me, I want to try at it, so im off to research phobias. And I want to get China over to be the model, haha, she has no clue what she's in for. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> I've been kinda depressed lately, I have my reasons, don't ask why though. And today I was notified by ~<a class="u" href="http://lovex3spell.deviantart.com/">lovex3spell</a> (btw; she has great work!) of two xanga quote/picture sites using my 'Key To My Heart' photo.<br />
<br />
These two sites;<br />

<a href="http://www.xanga.com/xlets_make_them_jealousx">[link]</a><br />

I don't even feel like contacting them, it doesn't ever stop anyone.. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=(" title="=( (Sad)" /> <br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Just wanted to say, Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Sorry I have been very unactive lately, just..haven't been into photography much, and there is a lot going on right now. I did manage to take a quick snapshot of me with the roses Blake gave me today, which was extremely sweet. Anyways, I might be doing a wedding soon, for commission, and I hope everyone had a nice day, we might even be getting some more snow tonight.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I did a little experiment with China today, I tried doing something sort of band photography type of shoot. Go to my flickr and look;  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristenlanea/">[link]</a> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /> And I would appreciate knowing which photos to upload. I really liked it, guess it's not really that different, but I don't know, I really clicked with it as well as fashion photography. I want to try something waaaaaay better next time she comes though, more props, better background. Oh, and I may be getting a wedding job in April, ill update when I get the news.<br />

Then im walking out to the corn field, which of course is currently died down, but I thought it might turn out good, and will be nice to see something different. And after that, I might even get my sister in for some shots, if shes in the mood. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Happy New Year everyone! I wish everyone a great year, and hope everyone had a good 2006, I know I did. <br />
<br />
So far things are going good for me. I've landed two jobs already, one is a maybe though. I'm going to be photographing a child at a big outdoor flower garden. This is my first time photographing someone elses child whom I don't know. I'm so excited, this is the type of thing I like doing. And I might get to do a wedding, but they are still deciding on that. I need to think of prices, actually, I really need my own website. I need to do some resource and set up a price list. Don't know when i'll get to doing any art photography yet. I really have to focus on school. <br />
<br />
My new year resolutions;<br />
1. Get a driver's license<br />
2. Study school work<br />
3. Start college classes<br />
4. Improve my photography<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ This year is finally almost over. School is coming back soon, and I am very behind & I have to start studying hard for the SATS I will have to take later this year. So, given that, I will be taking a short break from photography for now. Not a long break, but just some time to get inspired and back into it. Don't expect anything until mid January. <br />

<br />
This has truely been a great year for me. I've matured so much in photography, and much thanks goes to you guys for the help, motivation, and support. I can't wait for 2007! To start over fresh, and try my hardest.<br />
<br />
Anyways, incase you were wondering.. I have already received my main Christmas gift, it was the 50mm 1.4 lens I got a month or so ago. I got a lovely necklace from my boyfriend, and one from my sister, a hello kitty toaster <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lmao.gif" width="19" height="21" alt=":lmao:" title="Laughing my ass off!" />, a sewing machine, and many other things I can't think of.. what did you get?<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Since when does everyone get a print account? Weird..but definitly cool. Though, I still need a premium print account, because i'd like to adjust the prices. I've decided not to sell my 2007 calendar here, mainly because im a n00b at this image size crap, and can't figure out how to make it. Instead, you can purchase one here; <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/KristenLanae/product/158330916495700107">[link]</a> if you like.<br />
<br />
If you wish to buy one, please don't order one until I have recieved mine and know that it looks fine. I'll update soon.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I apologize for the lack of activity around here lately. I've been super busy though. As I mentioned in my last journal I have a new backdrop and lens..which I haven't practiced with much, took a couple of self portraits which was kinda hard. I need a remote timer, think ill buy that for myself soon. I got offered a new job today. She wants me to photograph a business christmas party..im kinda nervous though, should I accept? And does anyone know what sort of equiptment I should have or take with me? I'm guessing i'll need a flash or something. I'd really appreciate if anyone could tell me any information on that... well this is Thanksgiving break week, so that means China will probally be coming over. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> That also means many new shots coming in, I really want to try that new lens of mine out. Okay, enough about me, how is everyone around here? DA seems to have slowed down a lot this past month, with Flickr and all..<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Me and China did indeed end up taking lots of pictures last Sunday. I have most of the ones I liked fixed up on my other computer, I've just been too lazy to upload them to Flickr and I have also been busy with other projects. The projects im REALLY wanting to do are my own personal projects. I have SO much inspiration right now. Yesterday I got inspired by the cover photo of a movie, and I'd like to work on that soon.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I want to but I simply don't have the time at the moment.. Anyway, my friend China, which you've seen in my gallery many times, is coming over tonight so maybe ill get to photograph her tomorrow. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> I've been searching around other artists for inspiration, im pretty motivated now...<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I've been so inspired and creative these past two days..which could be due to slight depression I've had. I always seem to be creative when im sad. The only problem is that I am SO busy with other projects, like the quilts and fabric, that I haven't had time. As conceited as it may sound, I really really have an itch to do some good self portraits, ones with concept, and that itch needs to be scratched. Don't know about anyone else, but sometimes I like being model in my photographs. I know what I want, I know what I need to do, and I get it done. It's much easier. Think ill plan a day to myself sometime this week and do that. I feel as if im going through one of my changes again, starting to lose interest and liking in all of my photos, and am wanting to do something different, and try to create something better. Hope I can manage to do that. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Im back, and it went well. This was my first wedding, keep in mind I wasn't their photographer, I was there for the experience and to get an idea of what it's like. I had fun, and got some pretty good shots. Currently I have all the wedding shots up at flickr. I am working on the pictures from the reception though, it wasn't too bright inside at the reception so didn't get that many good shots.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, one of the quilting teacher who will be teaching at the store wanted me to practice photographing one of her quilts today, she's going to start recommending me to other quilter's. These quilts are more of a big deal than I thought. The lighting and detail has to be good because these pictures are for them to enter in big quilting shows. Anyway, I used my new lens (10-22mm) and she was pleased with the results. I do need to get a white back drop though, because the pictures were a little dark around the edges, but hey, this was my very first experience with this, so I thought I did okay. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am SOO excited I can barely sit. We just got back from the camera shop. I got so much stuff. First off, I got a new camera bag, and tripod. Then I got a new lens to take pictures of quilt's with. I am going to be taking professional photos of quilt's for money now. I got the 10-22mm lens. THEN, I got a studio set up. I got three light stands (one big, two small) and a backdrop rack. I feel sooo spoiled. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> I can't wait to set it up tomorrow and start practicing! I also got my hair cut, which makes me feel better. Well, thought I'd share that. I have a lot of projects going on right now. I went to Oklahoma to photograph a job site for a company last week, and I need to finish working on those photos. Then, this Thursday, i'll be photographing quilt's for a lady. And now I will be going to Oklahoma again to photograph a wedding, its my cousin's. I'm not doing the photos for them, I'm taking them for my portfolio and for the experience. We'll..im pretty busy this week. So have a nice week everyone! <br />

<br />
Thanks so much everyone! The last time I even looked at my page views, it was at about 2,500, so when I happened to glance over that I was kinda shocked. I was also overloaded with favorites on my latest deviations, thanks again!<br />
<br />
PS; Does anyone know how much a print account costs? It has no information when I went to buy it..<br />

I guess I will also buy a subscription to Flickr soon. Nothing much else going on. Im still taking HUNDREDS of photos for the store's website, thats why I haven't uploaded anything new. But today I uploaded a good..10 pictures to deviantart, I think? Well, im pretty busy so..laters.<br />

<br />
The bad news...my basic flickr account only holds 200 photos, then you have to pay to get more space.<br />
<br />
My top and most favorited photos are being knocked off. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=(" title="=( (Sad)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, my mom and grandmom have opened a business and everything, but now they are taking it online. Soo, thats where I come in. Yeah, I have to take pictures for the website, and there are over 2,000 bolts of material to photograph. Wowww..im going to be busy with this for a while.. so theres not much time to work on anything else. =/ I'm going to be putting together a little portfolio/ picture book also, I just had my pictures printed. People ask to see some of my work sometimes..so that will become handy. I'm never satisfied with my photographs anymore, about a week after I take them, I get disgusted and think "why did I even think that looked descent in the first place?". I was actually thinking about going back to my gallery from a few months ago and redoing some of the pictures. I've really had time to look them over, get critique, and see my mistakes, now I'd like to correct them. But, I won't be getting to that anytime soon. Well, enough rambling.<br />
<br />
Oh, and if you want to see some of my new stuff, I have a ton of pictures posted on my xanga; <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/kristenlanea">[link]</a> Check it out. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I have a very loose joint or something in my left shoulder so now I am in physical therapy three days a week, for about four weeks, trying to build up muscle around it. If this method doesn't work, surgery will be the next only option. I can't do much lifting on things, especially heavy things..which I love to feed off of. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /> Well thats about it, except the fact I badly need a new avatar. Anyone make them?<br />
