Meet Alice

I figured since I let you all know a little about myself, I should introduce you to my partner in crime, Alice. She's a Nikon D40 and I love her. :) If you haven't noticed, I have a thing for naming...well...things. Naming my camera Alice was inspired by...you guessed it!--Alice in Wonderland--one of my favorite books. Alice is constantly changing heights, perspectives, locations, you name it. She explores a whole new world simply through her own imagination. Most of the time I feel like Alice--a very tiny person lost in a HUGE world. So I'm taking it one snap shot at a time. :)
She actually has a really cool back story, which I'll take a few minutes to share. I had been wanting this particular camera for quite some time and had even started putting money aside for it. One day, I came home and there she was! My Dad's good friend, Eric McKenna {owner of Boogie Street Guitars} is continually buying new cameras for his company. My dad mentioned to him that I was saving for this camera and he decided to simply just give me his--lens and all! What a blessing this was to me! I've absolutely loved having this camera so far and can't wait to actually learn how to use it properly!

p.s. This picture was taken by Mr. David Thompson at my school's prom this past year.
