Projects Galore

Guys, I haven’t been inspired the way I am now in so freaking long. As someone who struggles to go after the things I want, I’m proud to say I have pushed myself and showed up for myself so much lately. It sounds like I’m tooting my own horn, but if you know me, you know how rare it is that I step up to the bat. I’d rather someone else hit that home run while I watch safely from the stands only imagining what that feels like.

On top of finally figuring out what I want to offer to the photography community, I’ve also started a new 365 project! So far I have picked up my camera every single day this year ("This is going to sound weird, but for a second, I think you took on the shape of a unicorn." -- Dale ((if you know, you know))). I’m excited to see our whole year in pictures.

I think it will only bring good to our life and my business to be picking up my camera every single day and I’m excited for the challenge. I’ve started these projects at least 50 times, no joke, but this is the longest I’ve ever stuck with it and it’s already teaching me to look at my home and kids and light in new ways! I’m kind of obsessed with our tiny ugly, usually dirty bathroom right now, so prepare yourself to see a lot of it.

My other goal is to blog every single week, and to post them on Sunday’s. One thing I want to document are the pictures that didn’t make my Instagram feed throughout the week, along with little tidbits about our week and some work stuff.

So, anyway, to kick us off, one fun fact about me: I’ve been listening to the same music for 14 years now (heyyyyy Avett Brothers and old school Taking Back Sunday ilysm). Last week I remembered Joshua Radin (sup 2006?) who I basically listened to on repeat for five years straight, and in case you’re wondering, he may be even better now, so you’re welcome.

Please tell me the artists you’ve stuck with the longest, the ones who got you through the hard. The artists you go to over and over who feel like old friends by now. Bonus points if I’ve never heard of them and end up LOVING their music.
