Hey it's Luke here!

I just wanted to say that I've been taking my own personal photography more seriously lately (not for work) and should have a website up by the end of the week (fingers crossed) when that happens, you will be the first to know.

I didn't tag all that many people in this because it takes too long and I have homework. If you are reading this and are not tagged, please don't be sad, just be happy that it is spring and that you are alive!

You are all invited to please take a look at my newly developed flickr website that has been under some intense organization by myself. This is a bare bones look at what you might be able to expect form my website soon, but edited way cooler and look very professional. I have been meaning to batch the majority of my photos photos into the following categories:

Humans: Portraits that I have taken of people. Some are candid, some are staged. Just people I know and love. (or don't know very well at all!)

Creatures: Any organism that is not human that I think is neat looking. Pretty self explanatory.

Music: Live concerts and shows. (Including EVE6, Flaming Lips, Mates of State, KayKay & his weathered underground, and the Kooks) More to come very soon! Another very exciting pice of news is that I emailed the lead singer of one of my favorite bands Cloud Cult, and we chatted online about me taking pictures at their concert in Portand this May! I am so excited to do thi and to meet one of the greatest bands of all time. Here's theri music: http://www.myspace.com/cloudcult

Outside: neat stuff outside including photos from Antarctica, California, Pennsylvania, all over Oregon, and the United States

and............? (more surprises in store my friends!)

If you'd like to see or read more, please check out my flickr page!

Endless Love,
Luke

good news....

here it is:
I have literally printed this and hung it on my wall. After 19 credits and a couple more months, I'll be a college graduate. sweet victory is almost mine.

Hi My name is Luke and for the next ten weeks I will have no social life. I just accepted a position for a counseling program at Southern Oregon University for the Fall! Right now all I have to do to achieve this lofty goal is graduate on time. Only problem is that I'm 19 credits shy to do so. So from now on, school will be my life. Who knows, maybe I'll get some friend time in there or something, but if I'm gonna pass, all energy needs to be school focused.

In other news, I just had the greatest spring break of all time with by best friends in the world. I love them alot.

the greatest

Brothers

This is love

Stayed with Rocket in Canada!

In other news, my photography website will hopefully be up and running pretty soon. yay! The I'll make millions of dollars taking pictures for people. ok not really but I'll be happy to be a starving photographer working my way through grad school I guess.

Endless Love,
Luke
