On Halloween weekend we opted out of the traditional festivities and rented a cabin in Broken Bow, Oklahoma with my boyfriend’s family. We’ve been there a couple of times before, and I was especially looking forward to our trip this year because it didn’t feel like fall yet in Texas; no fall colors, no cooler temps, no waterfalls of hot cocoa.

So, in case anyone was wondering, all the photos I post here are ones that I’ve taken. Photography and film are huge parts of my life and I like incorporating them into my writing. Lately I’ve been experimenting with different lighting situations and have discovered a lot of great new ways to light my scenes and subjects! Earlier this year I was lucky enough to get my hands on the new Canon 60D, and I’ve…
