For my Public Relations class, Leslie Graf and I took a little trip down I-65 to check out the Alabama Farmers Market. We are doing a project for them, so we are literally marketing for farmers. Wordplay! But I digress. It was open-air, with friendly people and good-looking fruit & veggies (even though I don’t normally think vegetables look tasty). The man working there was so fun to talk to. He said he had been working there since 1957, “before you were even thought of!” He attempted to juggle apples for us. I ended up buying those Alabama Grown Golden Delicious apples and I ate two in the hour after I left the market. It’s a miracle my body didn’t reject them after all the bad food it’s used to getting.

Kids Rock
Boys will be boys & girls will be girls. Grace is one of the sassiest little divas I know, and Jared is your typical little boy. This was a fun shoot. Man was it hard to get them to stand still though! Luckily, I like goofy pictures better than a cheesy smile! What better way to show the personality of your kids?
PS–I’m obsessed with these huge rocks! Would you guess that we are in the middle of town?
Railroad Park
Stevi let me snap some pictures of her in Birmingham’s Railroad Park before a springtime sunset.
Rawr Fingasaurs
In photography class, we did a Dollar Tree challenge. We got one item and did a photoshoot with it. Luckily, I found these FingaSaurs and they were pretty great. Mr. Beeson even enjoyed modeling them for me.

Bulldog Baseball vs. Auburn
Samford University’s baseball team hosted a game against Auburn University on March 27, 2012. The game had an explosive ending when Samford’s Phillip Ervin hit a walk-off grand slam to push the Bulldogs ahead of the Tigers for an 8-5 win.

The Magic City
My photography class took a trip to the Vulcan, overlooking downtown Birmingham to learn a thing or two about shutter speed.
Nuts about nuts
A trip to Morris Avenue in downtown Birmingham will transport you to another time and place entirely. There, on the only cobblestone road in Birmingham, you can take a trip to the Peanut Depot for a delicious snack.
Glow
We threw a rave during photography class and captured some cool images with the glowsticks.
Step Sing 2012
Step Sing 2012 came to an exciting close on February 18 in Samford University‘s Wright Center. Dudes-A-Plenty, an all-male independent group, took home their third consecutive Sweepstakes trophy. DAP’s show was titled “Rush” and the men portrayed miners during the gold rush of ’49. IGnite, a new group of independent and greek women, won first runner-up for their Nun-themed show. Second runner-up was awarded to Zeta Tau Alpha who performed as skeletons.
