I can barely keep my eyes open as I write this. At this moment I am uploading over 1,000 images that we took yesterday at the 5th Annual All About Downtown Street Fair. What an incredible day!! Thousands of people came out to eat, shop local, enjoy live music and hang out with their neighbors. […]

Carolyn Light
These days the music industry is so saturated with female artists that sing club anthems, are auto-tuned, wear body suits, and sing about things normal people can’t really relate to… I love Rihanna, but who is this girl that owes you money?! and why are you singing about her?
