So, I've been really, really absent from my blog lately. I've put some thought into what this space means to me and what I do it for, and honestly, I'm coming up a little bit short on answers. Anne Kristine did a really eloquent post about the subject. A lot of my attention has shifted into my physical world- lots of writing in notebooks, hanging out with new friends, painting walls, hanging up art, cooking meals, and riding my bike around (sans camera). I haven't felt the urge to do a lot of public documenting.
I've also been on tumblr a lot more, and even started a second one- Clippings. It's still in the baby stages, but I'm really excited to see where it goes.
Also, some exciting happenings, my friend Jadie and I got together in my kitchen and did a little photo shoot the weekend before last. I made my favorite granola recipe and took her on a tour of my Sugarhouse neighborhood. She shoots mainly portraits and weddings, and she's so, so incredibly inspiring to me. I can't begin to describe the excitement I felt in being able to nerd out about camera lenses and talk aperture.
As you can see, the layout on my blog is back to square one. I'm still pondering which direction I'd like to go with this space, and in the meantime, I'm all plain-Jane.
Thanks for reading, I really love all your input, advice and thoughts.
i hear you on the blog front. maybe it's the beautiful spring weather - i've been feeling equally less inclined to hop on the computer, especially with the sun shining outside.
ReplyDeleteI went through a stage just the same, but now I love why I post, and what I post! I post all sorts that I would love to read off someone else's blog, and I don't just stick to a specific topic, but I love to branch out! It makes me happy that way! These spring photos are lovely and remind me to appreciate all the little things! I also agree with Nicomade - when the weather has been sunny, I haven't felt the desire to post about my longing for a hot day, but enjoy it!
