Don’t judge me but these photos have been sitting in my hard drive for almost a year. I really don’t have a valid reason as to why I never edited and uploaded them. [I was busy: school, study abroad, you know] I started actually, sorted them into folders, even starred a few in Bridge. Reviewing ... Read More
Hello, It’s me. You’ve been wondering what have I been up to in my one year (but really two-year) hiatus. Before I get into all of that, take two seconds to follow me on Instagram and Twitter (@KweenPhotos) so you can stay up to date on what I’m up to and new photography. Have you done it….? ...

Every summer for the past couple of years, my cousins come up from Atlanta to visit for a few weeks. I used their visit this time around to show one of them around the capital city. What other place to begin than Ben’s Chili Bowl? Honestly, this was also my first time at Ben’s so ... Read More

Today marks one month since I landed back in the United States and I still can’t believe I really spent five months in France. Five months without seeing my family and closest friends, leaving everything I know behind. If you know me, you know I don’t do tears. Prior to this semester I have cried ... Read More

France produces grapes (for wine), brie cheese, and are experts at bread and fries (baguettes will never be the same for me). Today ... Read More
