entry 66. [when the path ends.]
Saturday, October 29, 2011 11:03am Venice, CA   I’m at a crossroads. I always thought “crossroads” meant you had a choice…ya know, the place where 3 roads intersect. Applying that crossroads metaphor to life, one could therefore head in any of those 3 directions. THAT was my understanding of crossroads. I suppose that means I wasn’t truly at a crossroads, for it...

entry 65. [Creativity and Prometheus]
This morning I was reading about Greek mythology, when I was struck by the myth of Prometheus. I was already quite familiar with the story, but this time, it applied to the life of an artist. Allow me to explain. The story of Prometheus is one of a mortal, a Titan, who challenged Zeus, the chief Olympian God. There was a feast, where the mortals came to “settle the debts” with...

entry 64. [you can fly when you want to]
Hi. I know, it’s been far too long. I’ve really missed writing to you… Lately I’ve been thinking about change. Change, in and of itself can be really great. It’s better when you initiate it yourself…not so fun when it’s initiated for you. But I choose to believe that ultimately, all change can be good…given enough time. That’s where I...

entry 63. [words can be so damaging]
entry 63. [words can be so damaging] by Elizabeth Huston Fine Art & Photography on Monday, July 11, 2011 at 11:39am You ever have one of those big memory flashes? The kind that, if they had physical weight to them, would literally knock you over? Usually these flashes occur in the oddest of moments, when you haven’t thought of that person/place/thing for years. And in that moment,...

entry 60. [on being charitable]
I have some big project ideas. Projects that are huge in time and scope, far reaching in vision, rich with meaningfulness…yet, many of them lack proper funding. Which has led me to researching grants. Many of the grants I’ve found are closed for the year already, but there are a few that are still open. I prepare my applications. Hope runs high. I’m no stranger to raising...

entry 54. life as a movie.
If my life were a movie, what would happen next? And is it even interesting enough to BE a movie? I haven’t had those thoughts in years, but tonight I have been entertaining them. I just watched a movie I didn’t particularly enjoy, but the end had me in tears anyway. And so, like any good escape artist, I started looking at my life as if it were a film. I didn’t really...

entry 52. The Rollei.
I’m in love! Got my hands on an amazing vintage Rolleiflex for a wedding I’m shooting this weekend. Moments ago, I loaded the film, grabbed my light meter and took it for a test run. Clearly I don’t know what the results are yet as I’ve yet to process the film, but the camera itself is amazing. I took to it as a duck takes to water. Everything about the camera is...

entry 53. Korean Wedding Ceremony.
I’ve been a busy photographer these days! I have 2 weddings this coming weekend and I photographed 2 weddings last weekend; one Friday and one Saturday! That means I have hundreds of photos to edit (now that I’ve gone and deleted all the bad pics from the bunch!) Today was dedicated to editing photos and ONLY editing photos… Early this morning I dove right into editing the...

entry 51. new beginnings.
by Elizabeth Huston Fine Art & Photography written on Wednesday, March 2, 2011 at 10:18pm For my entire career I have had an in-home studio. Sometimes that meant just a desk and the occasional studio setup. Sometimes that meant a proper studio in the garage, always setup. Sometimes that meant a darkroom in my bathroom. Sometimes that meant I had 2 desks and a full-time studio setup....

entry 50. the key.
entry 50. (written Thursday, February 24, 2011 at 10:59pm) For weeks, perhaps months, I’ve been wanting to get back to writing these photoblogs. A busy schedule, a multitude of projects and unmovable commitments had me pulled in other directions. Tonight, however, I’m finally sitting down to express the thoughts I’ve been cultivating for a week. Last week I took myself...
