Lindsi Jones is a college graduate!! After years of hard work and sacrifice I have finally graduated from Valdosta State University. It has been a long road, many times I wanted to give up but I kept at it and kept pushing and today all of my hard work paid off. I now have a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art with a Major in Fine Art Education. I am very happy and excited to have completed my degree and am looking forward to what the future holds.

I have mentioned this before, but for those of you that don’t know I am a student at Valdosta State. The degree I am working on is a Bachelor in Fine Art, with a major in Art Education. This is my last semester. I will graduate on December 13! YAY! As and Art Education major you spend your last semester of school student teaching. I am doing my student teaching at Lowndes High School teaching 9-12 grade Drawing, Visual Arts, and Ceramics.
I was asked to help the Art Honor Society at Lowndes with a fund raising project. The club had an idea to sell t-shirts with a photo of Martin Stadium on the back. Since I am a photographer I offered to shoot the image for them.
We are currently working on the design for the T-shirts and should have them for sell in the next few weeks. I will post a photo of the finished shirt and give information on where you can buy one. Be sure to check back!

Today, after a very long and difficult battle with cancer, my grandfather Jose “Papa” Prida passed. As he passed he was surrounded by the people who loved him most, and is now resting in a much better place. I am very sad that he is no longer with us, but relived in knowing that he is no longer suffering. Papa was a great man. His life was an inspiration. He loved his children, grandchildren, the Altanta Braves, but most of all my grandmother, Mama. Even today, the saddest of days, this photo still warms my heart. It was taken 58 years ago on their wedding day. It describes their life together perfectly- happy, beautiful, and in love. This photo inspires me in my own work. It is just a small glimpse into the happy life they shared.
Please keep my family in your thoughts as we endure this difficult time.

Its back to school time! I started teaching this week myself, student teaching at is, at Lowndes High School in Valdosta GA. For the next few weeks I will be observing classes, and will eventually start teaching classes on my own. I will finish in December and at that time I will complete my Bachelor Degree in Fine Art with a Major in Fine Art Education. I am really excited about that.
In honor of my return to High school, I wanted to share a quick preview from two of my latest Senior portrait sessions. I will be posting more from each of these sessions later in the week.
Meet Jenna. She is a Senior this year. Jenna is from Louisiana she was visiting family in Florida last week and we were able to work out a time for her portraits. I am glad that we did!
Hannah is from the class of 2008. She graduated from Lowndes High School and is headed up to Athens this week to start her first semester at the University of Georgia.
I will be posting more from each of these sessions later so be sure to check back!
Thanks for looking!

Last week my Dad and I went on a trip to North Carolina. We traveled around shopping and sight seeing. It was really nice to be away for a few days, and the weather was awesome. Weather was in the 70s and 60s at night, No humidity, and no mosquitoes. GREAT. I did not take a great deal of photos while I was on vacation but I did get a few. Next week I will be posting photos from my latest engagement session but for now I will leave with you a few photos from my trip. Enjoy!
Thanks for looking!
