Hello, you. June’s theme will be LONGING. Unlike more-acute forms of desire like desperation or need, longing is a sweet ache—more pining for something than dying for it. It’s nostalgia, homesickness, boredom, a persistent feeling of lack, dreaming of escape/the future. It’s summer: summer homes & cottages, stuffy summer bedrooms, sun-bleached memories of summers past. The shadow of September that hangs over June. It’s secret hangouts, crushes, unrequited love. Send what you’ve got here, and thanks. ♥

Log in to reply… agreed. Do real people really have this many hipstery friends? Or like… am I just missing out on all these stylish alt parties?
Log in to replyso rude and unnecessary!
Log in to replyI agree with you, Katie!
Log in to replyBug and I are missing out on the stylish alt parties lol. :(
Log in to replyI really like this! The one with the balloons and the one with the candles are my favorite!
Log in to reply10 is my spirit animal, Soooo pretty.
Log in to replyDoes Olivia do cool stuff just all the time?
Log in to replyLiterally what I was thinking, let’s be jealous together.
Log in to replyExactly. I was thinking something along the lines of “Does she really live a life that’s always this exciting”?
Log in to replyI love number 11! You can really feel the warm summernight-air through the picture…
Log in to replyI really do not like this style of photos at all. I’m such a photography snob!!
I like #13 though…
Log in to replyI don’t know about whether this is “photography” but these photos definitely fit the “exploration” theme to a tee. some of them (in this context) are wicked. good work.

Log in to replyhow is this not photography? photography can span a million different sub genres…
Log in to replyI think the fact that it’s more like “snapshots” as opposed to an “artistic photo”, which takes in to consideration lighting, white balance, composition, all that…. what people are used to seeing when thinking about “PHOTOGRAPHY” as an artistic expression..
This is still photography! :D
Log in to replyBy this logic, any candid photographs, lots of music photography, wouldn’t be “photography”…
Log in to replydis is ohwsum.
Log in to replyNot only is this “real” photography, it is dope! Transported me to the moment. What kind of camera did you use???
Log in to replythanx babe!! i used a canon eos a2 for most of these shots!
Log in to replyolivia, do you use something like photoshop to make your photo’s look analog? (i could ask this in dutch, but i guess there are more people who want to know this :)!)
Log in to replyi think your photography is beautiful. it sort of idealizes and makes beautiful every-day activities. gives weight to them, or something. been following your photography on your blogspot pre-rookie! haters gon’ hate, gurl.
Log in to replyI love everyone’s expression in number 8. It made me actually smile to myself. Also, 13 looks reall goood. I like your style of photography :)
Log in to reply1 and 9!! ♥
Log in to replyI like the pics with the purple hair (I want mine green), balloons and the mushrooms! =) Oh, Also I was thinking you should write about Parry Gripp songs because they are so fun and adventuresome and stuff! They are so catchy, funny and crazy! http://www.youtube.com/user/ParryGripp?feature=watch

Log in to replyBalloons freak me out.. It`s like a phobia. Good that they`re in a photo, but I could never hold so huge balloons in my hand.

It makes me really excited when I know some of these people. Are you from Portland?
Log in to replyThese photos are amazing. They definatley have that retro sort of polaroid-ish feel or something. Did you use any editing platform to make it look like that? How much was your camera? What kind?
