recuperating

i’m trying to recuperate after yesterday’s not-even-midweek-breakdown’ by distracting myself with new endeavors.

here’s what I’m looking forward to:

-photo project-
my friend leigh was telling me about a day project her friend did and i wanna try! it might be a bit different from the original, but here are the general details: from waking to bed time, take a photo every 30 minutes. no set up or posing, just the take photo wherever you’re at, whatever you’re doing. 
wanna do it with me?  i wanna do it a week from this Saturday! (the 13th) then we can post the photos on the following Sunday!?

-reprocessing images-
when i look at my old photos i feel an odd emotional mix: half horrified at the quality, and half encouraged because i recognize that i have developed (and will hopefully continue). my raw image processing has changed drastically in the past year and i'm beginning to wonder if redoing some of my old photos from their raw files will help minimize that all too familiar portfolio shame. hopefully so! that is my plan...results to come soon! 

-photo books- -
i rarely print my personal photos. and by rarely i mean i haven't printed any of my personal photos in....lets see....5 years?  its depressing! i love looking at my photos but they are all either on myspace, facebook or on a DVD archive buried in my "office."  i forget i have taken some of them until i delve into the mass of disks to retrieve a customer's images! how sad is that!?!
this one will take a little longer to work out since i have sooo many but i'll let you know how its coming along.

-baby photos-
i will (hopefully) be photographing a baby on sunday! its been so long since i have done a baby and i'm excited to try some things i've been thinking of lately. yay for squishy babies!


and here's a photo just because...


the end.
