2022 Photo Project

I have finally committed to a realistic project for 2022. 

2021 was the year I made grande plans that never worked out.  And it's a hard pill to swallow know you completely bombed the whole idea.  Like 100% bomb.

I want to learn more.  I want to try new things.  I love photographing the sky and bugs up close.  But I also am very aware of my limitations.   I am a mom to 2 who still very much need me.  I work 5 days a week.  I work on our farm.  Plus all the other normal adult stuff (cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, etc).  As much as I would love to take full days to do photo shoots in the mountains or with a model... it would be an exception to the rule.  I have better chances with the bugs and wildlife.

So, in 2022, I am committed to taking at least one INTENTIONAL photo with my DSLR camera per day.  Not just a fly by the seat of my pants because I forgot.  I can carve out 10 min of my day to take a photo that is beautiful, interesting, etc.

I am not committing to editing the same day or posting the same day or even the next.  But I am going to fill a journal with a print out of my photo, with the date and settings and a sentence or two to describe the photo, the moment or a feeling.  And I have the intention to take that journal as a rough draft and make a photo book in 2023.

This is relaxes enough to give me the freedom to photograph what I want, when I want and how I want.  And I will continue to work at crossing things off my photography bucket list.  I will continue to learn and try new things.

I'm really excited.  No theme.  No list to follow.  Just a girl and her camera... doing what she loves.
