every once in a while i search through endless.com for amazing shoes to post on my wedding blog. well today i got quite carried away and ended up finding more shoes that i wanted for myself than shoes that are appropriate for brides. i wish i had a giant walk-in closet like the celebrities above [and their paychecks] so i could buy all of these shoes, some of them in multiple colors!

window shopping: new years resolution edition

my new years resolutions basically covered:

1. project 365 [take at least one photo every day for the entire year - that asti bottle pictured above is my photo for day 4]
2. additional photography stuff yet to be defined, but something along the lines of
1. shoot x amount of bands
2. shoot x amount of portrait sessions
3. shoot x amount of weddings
3. lose weight - duh, who doesn't have this resolution every single year?
4. read at least one book per month

so accordingly here is my wish list to help me out with my new years resolutions

photography stuff:

• black and white film
• canon eos 5d mark ii
• 50mm f/1.2 canon ef lens
• 70-200mm f/2.8 canon ef lens
• colored smoke balls - now i know this might not sound photography related, but i have something really cool planned for these
• lomography diana f+ 55mm lens and close-up lens
• lomography diana f+ adapter for canon eos
• holga split image filter set and the filter holder
• and might as well throw this ring flash in for good measure

weight loss stuff:

and as far as books go, there are tons that i want, but mainly this one:
popular penguin breakfast at tiffany's by truman capote. love the movie, now i want to read the book.

i was told there'd be cake by sloane crosley

i don't care about your band by julie klausner

lomography diana+ 55mm lens and close-up lens since now i have an slr i could use it on and i will know that i didn't leave the stupid lens cap on for half the pictures like i did with my holga 135.

lomography diana f+ adaptor for canon eos mount so i can use that diana lens on my canon rebel xti and canon elan iie... dslr and slr with interchangeable lenses ftw!

jessica simpson clogs

just a few items that i am lusting after right now. in an effort to save money i will just be posting things that i want to buy and photos of them here on my blog every week so i can look at them all i want without maxing out my credit cards. and then when i do have extra money i can go back and buy it all!
