Fashion Photography

Last summer when I graduated university I made a little sappy post about how it was an amazing four years and how I recommend doing a post-secondary degree (read here: Graduation). So I will definitely not bore you with details about me finishing up my post-graduate certificate in Fashion Styling and Coordination, but I will say this. 

Those may have been an amazing four years at Business school, but these past ten months at the Chang School at Ryerson were also quite spectacular. I met an amazing group of girls, had some incredible professors, and was able to meet, network with, and make connections with industry people I probably would not have been able to otherwise. I have grown and learned so much since last summer, and it was a completely different feeling back then, knowing that I still had another year of schooling to go. Now I am completely done (yes, I am a little relieved; five years of university is a very long time), but it is a little scary to think that the real world is waiting and that I am only just beginning to discover who I am and what I want to do. 

That being said, I am stoked to just take the rest of the summer to relax, spend time with friends and family, while still working at H&M, blogging and writing for Toronto City Gossip! The last credit I took for the Fashion Certificate was an intro to fashion photography, so I would just like to share some of the (better) photographs I had the pleasure of taking during the course. Thanks for continuing my journey with me, and as always, thanks for reading!

Graduation

So I’ve finally graduated from University! I am now the proud owner of a business degree from Ryerson University.  These past four years have been amazing, and I feel so accomplished to have graduated.  I definitely recommend doing a post-secondary degree; it gives you a great background in whatever field you’re interested in (or even a general program if you’re still not sure what path you’re on), as well as gives you some time after high school to decide what exactly you want to do with your life.  I know I’ve really grown as a person these last four years, and figured out what I’m in to. 

In terms of outfit, I decided on a lovely coral dress with a tulip skirt- I found the colour to be very inspiring for summer.  I paired it with nude wedges and a floral clutch.  Luckily it was a beautiful summer day, and I had a blast.

My First Post!

My university graduation is in 13 days and I have been trying to get very fit for it! I’ve been trying to go to the gym for cardio and weights every other day, and on the days in between I like to go for runs outside.  It’s easier in the summer because its so nice out!

So today I went to the gym to work on my convocation body, and worked up quite a sweat. I’m just taking it easy for the rest of the afternoon, since I’ll be partying it up tonight with friends in downtown Toronto!
