Keeping a photography journal is a huge part of my learning process.
My first entry, January 20th 2005, described my experience in a darkroom for the first time. I collaged photos, test strips, quotes, technical information, and more.
I love being able to see the evolution of my ideas and photographs throughout the five years I’ve been enamored by taking photos, even though sometimes I am a little embarrassed about things I wrote when I was fifteen.
I want this blog to act like another one of my journals. The fact that it is public will push me to create better content and improve my writing. My last attempt at a blog failed miserably… mostly because I never set clear goals about the purpose of it.
So here we go
GOAL: To create an honest record of my photography exploration, to grow by pushing myself to create content/photos/writings, and have a place where my friends and family can see what I’m up to wherever I am in the world.
Every once in a while I will post an embarrassing page from a notebook. The images behind the cut are from 2005.
