[OH AND MY FIRST VBLOG IS BEING EDITED and is ON THE WAY]

MY Newest project, which very well might evolve into my BFA thesis focuses on a few mining towns that are left in West Virginia. I have had my fill of the mountain state this summer, and I think it has connected some wires in my head. I started to ask myself what makes these little rustic rural outposts unique, and what can be said about how they came to be...This helped me figure some things out, and in my search I came across a much more relevant and interesting story. Mainly having to do with the coal mining towns that are still intact. The beginning stages are in the works.

Saturday I had the opportunity of watching one of my best friends tie the knot. The wedding was awesome, the ceremony itself was one of the best I have ever seen-Incorperating new concepts with very traditional ideas. LOVED IT.On my way back home from the wedding I came across a massive train wreck.

It was the first time I had seen such a mess in person and obviously had to grab the camera...
