First post

It’s been a while since I’ve blogged but I felt the need to start again. Too much work is killing my creative spirit, especially with the constant corporate grind. So regardless of whether anyone reads this or not, I felt the need to start something to keep myself accountable for making sure I take some time at least a few times throughout the week to relax and do something that let’s me detach from work and all my responsibilities.

Photography is a hobby I really love and never take the time for. I alway feel like I need to be somewhere special, or doing something special in order to engage, but can the mundane be interesting? Can trips around town be something worth documenting? Maybe someone not living my life will find them fascinating, in a way similar to how I am awed when taking in a new landscape or scene that someone else has probably seen a million times before.

With a new blog comes a new camera. Over the last year I have wanted to become more involved with instant photography. I have great digital cameras, but feel like they sometimes create more pressure to make the best the best image ever, when in actuality I should just be looking to have fun. I’m hoping this new medium will help me accomplish that. So my first shot of one of my more photogenic models. Hopefully more to come soon!
