Wow, a whole year over. I took many photos in 2010...18,727 with my fancy camera, 320 with my iPhone, and more with my little Canon and film camera. I did miss 17 days picture taking, which feels kind of disappointing until I remember how annoying it could be to take a shot at 10 p.m. just to take a shot. Which means the quality or subject matter of some of the photos makes me cringe--wouldn't it be better to only share work I am proud of? But, I did it, and it got me in the habits of looking for even more photos and carrying my camera everywhere. I am glad I have a capsule of memories of 2010, and I am glad the project is over. If anyone is stilling checking out this blog, I'd love to know what some of your fave photos are!

Since some of the images of the past year have made me cringe, and since I have realized how much I love portraits, my project for 2011 will be to make one or two portraits a month that I am proud to share with the public. At this point in time, to me that means finding new subjects, planning out lighting and styling, and testing out new techniques.

I would also like to put out more sets of lush images that describe events/tell brief stories, and I look forward to compiling those images a bit more than I have in 2010.

Until then...Thanks for visiting my blog! HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL! 2011 IS GONNA' ROCK!!!
