Life on Two Wheels

All photographs are self-portraits taken by myself using a tri-pod.   

Ahhh it's biking weather again, finally!  I remember the first time that I was allowed to bike on the open road by myself without my parents.  As a kid that was the ultimate dream - open road and total freedom!  My favorite place to bike back then was a fairly secluded road that was surrounded by soybean/corn fields on each side.  It would stretch for about a mile and was always the smoothest road around.  It's a little hard to find a road that open in Savannah, but I have my favorite spots here too!  One of them is further away from downtown and during the weekday it's pretty quiet from traffic.  There are palm trees that line the street, and it's where I like to go when I need to clear my head from school projects.





Outfit:
Blazer:  Red Clover Boutique 
Watch:  JORD - I love these guys! Their craftsmanship, packaging, and customer service is spot on.
Shoes:  LeBunny Bleu

School starts again this coming Monday and I'm so excited for this quarter!  I'm taking a Knitwear Design class with my favorite professor which I'm really looking forward to learning under her again.  I just came back from a week long internship with the incredibly fun and talented team over at Handmade Charlotte!  I interned with them over Christmas break as well, and it's was such a fantastic time!  I'll share some of my work that I did with them hopefully soon.  Below is an instagram photo that I took as I was driving back to Savannah.
Happy Friday!

  1. That street is fantastic! And your photos are amazing...I've just spent about 10 minutes trying to figure out how you would take photos of yourself riding a bike! And get pretty ones like you did!

  2. I used to live in front of a soybean/corn field in Indiana. We'd let our cat lead us through the field and she'd dart off, leaving it up to us to navigate our way back out. - Leah, Style Wise

  8. Hi! I've just found your blog! I can't belive you are just 20 years old, you are one of the most talented persons I've found on internet. I really need to ask you a question... How do you achieve this georgous effect on your photos?! I'm starting on digital photography (I've been doing film for a while) and if you could tell me some guidelines on tools I would really aprecciate, if it's a secret and you don't want to tell it's ok, but I like the "vintage fur" and "mid starry night" shoots too much I don't loose anything for asking.

    Congratulations for your work from Barcelona! (oh, and I love your red hair!)

  11. Hello Esther, your story is so touching. It reminds me of my childhood when I started to ride my first bike to school. It's the first time I feel care-free without depending on others.

  13. You are so dreamy. I have been increasingly disenchanted by style blogs and you made me remember that there's still beauty out there!

  14. A friend posted this link on Facebook and the girl in the pictures reminded me of your self portraits so I had to pass along the link to you: http://www.boredpanda.com/autochrome-photography-christina-mervyn-ogorman/. The pictures are 1913 color photos and feature a girl with similar hair to you!
