Is it just ingrained in our generation to always have a side project? Because I’m totally a full time photographer BUT over the last year, I’ve found myself slipping into little side projects to fuel my creative energy. If you hated that I just said “Fuel my creative energy,” it’s okay, I kind of hated […]
In November of 2018, I left my full time job to pursue photography full time. Every month since then I’ve blogged what I learned from the previous month. This is month 15.

Here it is. Month eleven. ELEVEN. How did that happen? I’m sure I did a million things wrong in the last eleven months, but each month, I feel like I’m really excited to see what comes next. So I must be doing at least one thing right. Right? Month eleven was a good month. It […]
