Fairytale Vegas.

Just reminding!

I’m undertaking my biggest project yet. I’ve been dreaming for the longest time of releasing a book of my photography, however, I wanted there to be a theme to it, and not have it just be a random collection of photos. I finally have come up with a concept for the book.

I’ve started working on “Four,” a photo series based on four letter words. Most people are quick to associate four letter words with vulgarities. Others think of “love.” I started noticing exactly how many words are four letters, and how there was such variety in meanings. I’ve been gathering words from different sources and have a list of over 70 potential words. These will be narrowed down to 44, which will be featured in the book.

Having 44 words means having 44 photoshoots. That is a lot of photoshoots, meaning I need a lot of models. If you’re interested in modeling, please send in an application! No experience is necessary.

If you’d like to help out in any way, shape, or form, please email Lauren@FairytaleVegas.com. Right now, I need models, studio spaces in NY, publishing help, and so much more. If you’re willing to share your services, don’t be afraid to get in touch!

I'm 18!!!!

it's been a year.

i think about her every day. she's changed my life.

i spoke at her funeral. i told my favorite story about her. it was march 12th when i said it, so forgive the paraphrasing, i don't quite remember the word for word.


my grandmother loved to dance. my favorite memory of her was at my father's 50th birthday party. the song 'hot in here' by nelly came on, and for those of you who are unaware, those lyrics are quite provocative. naturally, i tried to get my grandmother off the dance floor for that one, but she wouldn't stop dancing. she never stopped dancing.

when i visited her at the assisted living center where she lived for the last years of her life, the first thing i noticed was her in the common room dancing. always dancing. the nurses there loved her spirit and energy.

alzheimer's got the best of her. i did not visit her in her last year, because it was something i could not gather the strength to see- my grandmother- my light, my inspiration- in a wheelchair. she could not dance. she was not herself. i could not deal with what the disease had done to her soul and her body.

when she passed, i was not sad. because now i know, for a fact, she is dancing again.

So as you've probably read, I'm trying to help my friends animal shelter win money so animals can live. Yay!

http://thesilentorchestra.com/achs.html

So where's the free shizzy?

Here's the dealio.

-First person to get 10 people to vote for the shelter gets a free 5x7 print of their choice.

-First to get 20 gets an 8x12.

-First to get 30 gets one of each and an awesome award.

How will I tell? Have your recruitees send me an email (fairytalevegas@gmail.com) when they vote with the subject line "Referred by (insert recruiters name here)" Make sure the email has the name of the person in it who voted. Don't lie. That'd be messed up. Severely. The lives of puppies are at stake. Don't cheat them for a free print. Meanie.

GO VOTE!

If he wasn't such a cool guy, I would've beat him up for my glasses back.
