simplicity = beauty

Hannah and I are both passionate really about aesthetic.

And though we aspire to different things (me: a writer, hannah: a designer), both of our aspirations ultimately have the exact same goal: to make the world a more beautiful place.
I think (& hope) that's a common goal with most all of us.

So even though a lot of what I post in the future may be diatribes about this or that, I want each of them to point to beauty, even if its just philosophizing about where the beauty can be found in darker things.

Today, however, I thought I'd post some pictures I took last week of some of my favorite boys (the brighter things) for their band (myspace.com/easterislandmusic).

In school, I studied photography for a few years and mostly shot film.
When I shot film there was no editing, no computers, just me and my camera.
I used film for this photoshoot and discovered that I'd forgot how wonderful and simple it was. Just like these pictures.

And something Hannah has taught me over the years with her stunningly simple, classic style: simplicity is beautiful & people are beautiful.
