Everything I own is named. My Jeep Wrangler is Ellie Rose, named by myself and little brother because some pretty good quotes came from Eleanor Roosevelt. (Great Lady) My little car is The Sexy White Car despite the extremely dented door. (Which I do not mind cause that wonderful Contour gets 40 miles to the gallon --and it's not a minivan.)
Lola is my camera. And what a camera too! I am a Canon fan. They're all I have used, and I'm pretty comfortable peering through the viewfinder of my Canon. Riese is my Stepfather's last name, and although it isn't mine, I kind of adopted it and put an Celtic twist on it (cause my family hails from Montrose, Scotland- well my favorite part does) making it Rhys. Hence, Lola Rhys.
So today, with my laptop, Paolo rockin it out in the background and a big old mug of Earl Grey I remember that... I.am.an.ARTIST. That Photography is a balm for my not-so-perfect soul that could use a bit of healing.
Here's to you, all the people who's lives I peek into, and document, and get to love for what makes you... YOU. Cheers. ;)
