happiness and disaster

i'm one half of the ginger guides.

                                       





If you haven't heard I'm one half of the Ginger Guides; a youtube channel run by my boyfriend and I. We haven't made a video in a while so this one was well over due. 

PS: GO CANADA GO















I've recently purchased the Sigma 18-35 1.8, which I will be reviewing in an upcoming post. These are a few of my test shots. 






On valentines Kyle and I finally went to Crywolf a store that we first heard of at the exhibition this year in the craft tent. It's full of beautiful trinkets and well designed clothing. I would recommend making a trip there if you live in the area. This is their website; http://www.crywolfclothing.com.


I've recently re-organized my computer by changing icons and using sticky notes as reminders. It's a fun and simple way to personalize your computer and can be done for the most part on a Mac or a PC. 

To start I found a photograph on tumblr that wasn't too flashy because I didn't want something that would look busy. This is my tumblr account if you're looking for any suggestions, happiness-disaster.tumblr.com and this is the exact picture  http://happiness-disaster.tumblr.com/post/75030181341. An important thing to remember is to find a large picture otherwise it will be pixelated and blurry. 

Next I used the sticky app; changing their colours to match my background photo. You can change the colour but, also the transparency which is key. I also changed the font to "brain flower" which I downloaded from http://dafont.com and used special characters under the edit bar.

The final thing I did was change all my icons. You can find tons of different ones from http://www.deviantart.com. All you have to do to change them is right click on the icon, hit get info, simply drag the icon from your downloaded file to the icon in the info folder.

Good Luck! 



If it isn't clear already you can probably assume I'm in love with my boyfriends hair. He naturally has the hair of my dreams, short, straight and more importantly red. I've finally got my hair to the vibrance and orange I've dreamed of, seeing as my hair has always been a little dull. I took this picture of him last night after spending 12 hours straight working on homework, it's completely unfair how he can look so great after such a lazy day. 

If you haven't noticed yet I have been in the midst of getting my hair done, which has led to a few posts with pictures of myself. I want to make it clear that I love taking photographs and making films but don't always have someone to take photos of, which often leaves me with one option. Taking photographs of myself. I have many plans for the content of my blog other then selfies don't worry. If any of my friends are reading this and are interested in having there photos taken please contact me because I'd love to have new models to practice on. Please don't be shy it would make me very happy. 

I just got my hair done this evening and I'm very happy with it. My hairdresser is wonderful and I'm lucky to have found her. At first I'm sure it appears that I've cut it all off but I assure you I haven't. My cousin Bethany told me one time that she could hide all of her hair in a little bun and appear to have a bob when she wanted to. Ever since then I had been dreaming of having that ability with my hair. Today is finally the day and I love it. 





My newest studio assignment was to build a private space for OCADU students on the fifth floor to make personal phone calls, FaceTime and Skype conversations. I based my design on the fifth itself which is covered with hexagons and plastic board.
