life gets more beautiful when a big shift is about to occur, or at least this is how it's alway been for me, maybe its just that things start to seem more real and less monotonous than before. it's as if your brain automatically puts everything into perspective as a way to transition from one thing to the next. I am graduating from college, moving, and as scary as all that change is and will be I've never experienced more beauty than in the last few months as everything comes to a close. I'm not even sure if the decisions I've made are the right ones, but I am so excited for whatever is next.

I thought I would eventually get to take your portrait. I brought my camera along every time, it occupied the passenger seat as I drove north on the highway to get to you. but each time I was too shy or too occupied to turn the camera on you. I took this photo the last day we spent together, the day I realized that it wasn't going to work between you and me. the day I realized I had to get over you. you stood beside me, I took out my camera, and click. this isn't a portrait of you, but it speaks volumes of how I was feeling. it will have to do.
