Holiday.....

So the Holiday.......
One of my favorite movies features this cute little cottage in London....
I absolutely LOVE it !!!!
I think it's the cutest little house ever....

For my photography final this year I completed a themed/documentary series
about a classical establishment, Mac's Drive-In.
My place of employment and the place I call home.
When I was home a few weekends ago, I was brainstorming a few ideas for my final.
I wanted to do something unique, something that meant something to me.
What better than Mac's???
Mac's is a quaint little place in the Finger lakes that serves fresh cut fries, homey buns and Richardson's Root Beet !
Absolutely Delish !
But the best part......we have Carhops :)
One of the last carhops in America, Mac's has been open for 49 years this summer.
A classic seasonal establishment !

Below are the photos I took for my final....

The front open air cooking station, complete with a Root Beer Barrel, and 49 year old counter....

A co-worker- Tania chats with a common customer over a
tall frosty mug of Root Beer.

Morghan Refills from the Barrel....

Brian's flippin burgers....

Sarah completes an order on the ramp to some happy customers....with a smile :)

Don't forget to stop and see us if you're in the Finger Lakes Area...

Country Roads.....

My trip to West Virginia this past weekend left me completely inspired by the beauty of the mountains. West Virginia has a beautiful point called- Cooper's Rock.... that was absolutely breathtaking. Sooo peaceful.
Left without speech....the mountains inspired me to find some beautiful mountain photography....

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads.

Director !

For the Directorial Mode Photography Theme
I shot my friend Syd as a Rich, Dignified, Classy somewhat perfect woman.
The underlying theme was, Just because her life seems perfect doesn't mean it is.
The true story is Syd (the model/character)
is hiding her true self under her perfect image.

She is Beautiful, Poised, Intelligent and Classy.
She is very rich and wanted by everyone.
But for those who can't see the true Syd.
She is battered, beaten, hooked on drugs and alcohol
and often uses prostitution as a way of income.

Goes to show you....Life isn't as perfect as it may seem.
