True Reflection
Saturday Apr 11, 2009
i've been away from this place for a while. I own and run a coffeeshop with my wife, Lora. It's a ton of work and that makes life really crazy. I am shooting weddings now and running the shop, with her. Doing all of these things means there is little time for me to manage all of these online presences.
It brings great joy to my life when I can be disciplined and caught up and manage all things well.
I'm trying, but not doing the best job at all of it.
Often times I feel like I am way behind the curve in terms of my photography, and other times I am really happy with where I am in the photo world. There are lots of great photographers out there, doing lots of great things. I'm working on running with them. It's just hard!
Keep it real and keep on shooting. That's my goal.
Sometimes I take photos of myself. Often when I am in a hotel, I do so in the pictures on the wall. When I go back and edit. I stop and think and get inspired to keep going, to dig and find new things to shoot, to do, to feel. it's good to stop and reflect, which I need more of.
Tuesday is going to be a day when I go out and shoot for a little while. I have the day off from the shop. I'm going to get out and make art for a little while. It'll be good. I need to.
