I was given this project on Monday for a wedding shower my boss is decorating for this weekend, and was so excited to get started. I have seen pennant banners all over Pinterest but never made one for myself. I know that there are plenty of DIYs on how to make these all over the internet, but I wanted to do a step by step tutorial of how I assembled mine! Also, I had no idea that Hobby Lobby carried pre-cut burlap and canvas triangles! Who knew?!

Weekend fun!
This weekend my best friend came back to Cypress! She has been staying in Waco this summer taking spanish in summer school, and it was good to be reunited! Trying to stick to my plan of taking photos daily, I decided to shoot some random photos while we were baking brownies and making friendship bracelets (yes we were making friendship bracelets, so get over it).

Austin Day Trip: June 19, 2014
I took a day trip to Austin, TX with my mom on Thursday and brought along Lenny (my camera, for those of you who don't know). We started our day on South Congress filling up on milkshakes and truffle fries at Hopdoddy, shopped around SoCo, and visited a cute lemonade stand. Then we paid a visit to only the best college there is-- The University of Texas at Austin! We bummed around campus and popped into stores on the drag. I'm pretty sure that the incoming freshman on campus thought that I was a freshman because I was walking around my mom and don't exactly look like a college sophomore, so I had to take some Alpha Phi photos to mark my territory. Anyways, it was a great day with a great person, and I couldn't have had a better time! Enjoy my photos from around the always lovely ATX.

Ashlyn Walker: June 14, 2014
I photographed these photos in the evening because I wanted them to be backlit with a sunny effect and soft lighting, and couldn't have asked for a better turnout. I love these photos! Check out more photos on https://www.facebook.com/maddyhillphotographics !

New Travel Lens!
Today I visited the Houston Camera Exchange with my mom to ask about a weird noise my 24-120mm lens had been making and pick up a card adapter, but came home with a new lens as well! My new baby is an 18-250mm and a crop lens (my camera shoots at such high quality that crop lenses aren't detrimental to quality), and is far more compact than my other lenses. I can't wait to use this lens to capture my family's road trip this July. Welcome to the family, lens #3!

Happy belated Father's Day everyone! I decided to bust out my camera after dinner to get some family shots of the men in my family to look back on over years to come. Thankful for my dad and grandfather!

Brought my good friend Jessica home for Thanksgiving because she couldn't be in California with her family... so naturally we had to do a Thanksgiving photoshoot!

Alex Whitnah: June 23, 2013
Shot just a few days shy of National Mountainboarding Day, I wanted to capture not only Alex's mountainboarding tricks, but other aspects of the sport as well. I generally don't shoot in direct sunlight because I like softer looking photos, so I decided to give these sunny photos a 70's vintage effect.
Ren Caldwell: June 4, 2013
Went on a little adventure with my friend Ren today, and brought my camera (of course).
Graduation 2013!
Happy graduation weekend everybody! Here are two simple graduation party invitations that I created for both my party and my best friend's party. I love getting to do design work like this!

Alex Whitnah: September 17, 2012
My first shoot dealing with my AP Photo concentration (vintage looking portraits taken in interesting lighting). They weren't edited using the same effect, because the entire point of working on a concentration throughout the year is to experiment with photoshop and make a series of collective images that fit together but don't necessarily match. Enjoy these photos of this handsome man!
Kailee Kubicek: September 8, 2012
My favorite photo from this commissioned mini-shoot. Such great, classic style!

Ashlyn Walker: August 21, 2012
My two favorite photos of Ashlyn Walker. Such a memorable shoot... especially when we almost got run over by a train! Thanks for putting up with the craziness, gorgeous.
Cypress Woods Cheer Seniors: August 21, 2012
Just a few photos from a group and individual shoot I was commissioned to do of cheer. Happy senior year, girls!
Whitnah Girls: June 1, 2012
Sister shoot at Grand Oaks Horse Farm just off of Huffmeister. Nothing like a photoshoot of two of the sweetest girls on my first day of summer!
Toni Triola: March 25, 2012
This shoot will forever stick out in my mind, because it was the first shoot that I was commissioned to do. A big thank you to the always gorgeous, always lovely Toni Triola. Thanks for trusting me to not take pictures that would look horrible... and helping me believe in myself!
Cameron Hill: March 15, 2012
Went on an impromptu shoot with my sister in the neighborhood today. Tried a different effect for them by adding a new layer of curves and an opaque solid layer (f6ddad), enjoy!
Fenn Family: Thanksgiving Day 2011
