I’m already tired of winter. Take me to spring where I can obsess over the tulips again.

I handed out my first (very hastily written) business card as a photographer today.

Scrambling to get a web portfolio built now so I can make ACTUAL cards lol.

I never get sick of this joke.
Happy new year!

This 100%

Yeah, it was marketing, and she holds the lens like an amateur—but it still puts a spotlight on photography both as a hobby and a profession.

And hey, Biles’s shots were actually pretty good. No mistakes I wouldn’t have made were I in her shoes.

I honestly hope she sticks with it.
If you can’t grasp why a global superstar pulling out a camera on one of the biggest stages in the world is good for photography, I’m not sure what else to tell you.

Moments like this shine a spotlight on the craft and lifts the entire photography community as a WHOLE. Everybody wins!!

I converted a previous year's template I had into a photo summary to look back on the year.

Since getting my Z50II to my Z5II now, I think my editing and composition have improved significantly.

I still have a long way to go. More reasons to pick up my camera and get out there.

Nikon D70: Sister gave it to me when she was tossing stuff out a little over a year ago.

Nikon COOLPIX S3000: Mom had it with her for vacations, family photos, and more—gave it to me yesterday.

Nikon Z50II: First camera I bought on my own coming up on a year ago.

I don’t do Black Friday shopping to begin with.

But I may go Black Friday photo-shooting.
Hmm.

Mom gave this to me. Still works after a format, reset, and fresh battery charge.

What to shoot with it?

This wasn't supposed to be anything but a settings test for chasing a different shot, but I ended up liking it enough to give it the full treatment.
