Spring Beginnings

  Ah, yet again, it's been a while. I don't know why I haven't been posting. Of course the same things are keeping me busy, but this is something I love doing. I suppose I've been avoiding it because I've been trying to figure out what I want to do with the next few years of my life.

  I don't think I'm cut out for making a business of my photography. I love it, and will continue to do small projects and still would love to shoot for others, but I've realized my heart is not all-in for the lifestyle. A professional photographer I assisted last year warned me of how cut-throat and independent one must be in order to be successful. I didn't believe him. Now I do and have realized I'm not cut out for it. It's just not me. I love photography for the art and for the experiences that come along with it. I don't want to rely on it in order to make a living, for fear of hardening my heart.

  So, that's off my chest. Believe me, I will still be shooting and will gladly accept clients! I just wanted to be honest about where I am. Anyway, here's to new beginnings. Just in time for Spring.

Eyes East

There were so many beautiful sunrises on my trip. I felt they needed their own post. Nothing can really beat the sun's early greeting over an endless sea.
