HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!
See my YEAR IN PHOTOS on the BLOG
2009 was definitely hard for a lot of people; with the recession, an all time low with unemployment and an ongoing war. For me, I noticed that weddings didn't really slow down. They may have not as been as elaborate or grandeur but that's really not the point. I think in this year of struggle, weddings brought people together and really showed how money does not buy you happiness or love. And I was fortunate enough to capture those moments.
In 2009, I traveled all over shooting weddings on both coasts. I met a ton of great people and built a ton of great relationships. For that, I am very thankful.
I was also fortunate enough to photograph two very important fundraisers. One being a fundraiser to help find a cure for type two diabetes and the other was helping students who had incredibly challenging upbringings get full ride scholarships to college.
Some of the most fun I had this year was teaching 4th and 5th graders about photography. I plan on teaching more classes in the next year to kids and adults.
Here's to 2010. I hope it brings more peace to the world and prosperity to people everywhere.
My theme for my 2010 resolutions: Maintain. Create. Discover.
Photo resolutions:
I am taking on a project called 52 Weeks of Photography. This will involve a different themed photo assignment and I will post it on my blog every Thursday. I really want to challenge myself to be even more creative and skillful with my camera.
I would like to shoot over 30 weddings this year.
Come up with a wedding package where all proceeds go to the Lance Armstrong Foundation.
Personal:
Not let little things get to me. I say this every year but I need reminding and practice.
Stay present.
Continue my running and run even more--goal to run EVERY single day or meet a 35 mile per week goal.
Keep on top of my finances.
TRAVEL. Even though it is very expensive I feel like we are all explorers and it allows us to grow, understand and discover.
Happy New Year!

Camera info: Shot in my living room with canon markII and 85mm 1.8. Lighting is a SUPER kewl (and secret) LED light from Germany that my photo buddy sent me (thanks, David!) camera right.
