A new year for new beginnings





I needed my ass to get kicked!
And what better way than for an intensive 3 day workshop of nothing but photography? BBI (black boots ink) put on an amazing workshop. I met amazing people, extremely talented photographers and made some new friends I hope that stay in touch and become closer with.

I've carried cameras with me everywhere and take shots here and there and go back to my long term projects however this weekend just kicked my ass in terms of the level of where I want to be. There is something just so pure and exciting of waking up and shooting from sunrise to sunset and working your ass off. I was extremely happy with the outcome of everything and still have to develop my tri x film to see how that came out. By the way is it odd that I've been itching to get back to school and just haul ass in the dark room? hmm

This weekend I made such amazing memories and I thought about a lot of things.

Is it too late to make a New Years resolution? I never thought of making one this year but this weekend made me realize how passionate I am about photography and just the process of getting to know the person on the other side of the lens and hearing their story. And the process of writing again. Not just jotting down information and quotes but fucking writing.

Resolution. Shoot everyday. Write everyday. And post in here again. At least every other day.



It's already 9:30 and I haven't cleaned my apartment so I think I'll get up on that. More photos/stories to come.
