November Goals

Back in October, I made a list.  Well, I made lots of lists, because I am a list dweeb.  But, I made a specific list called "No-Slack November" (paying homage to no-shave November) on which I listed all the things I wanted to get done before December's wintry winds began blowing.  One of these goals was to start a 365 photos project.

A while back I realized, I suck at remembering to take photos.  I mean when I travel and stuff, sure, I take photos of landscapes.  But I have like, no photos of people, and none of day-to-day events.  So I thought, why don't I take one photo every day for a year?  I later learned that I was not the first person to think of this, but I did not take the idea from someone else, so to me it still counts.  I started on Thursday when we went down to NC, and below you will find the first 6 days of the experiment.  They won't always be great, because my days are mostly the same, but I'll try to throw some good ones in there.  The point is to practice using my camera.  Because you can't be an awesome wedding photographer (as I'd like to be) when you don't use a camera!


Start of the road trip!

Slightly blurry, but happy at the beginning of the Christmas show! A little less at the end...

Em at Meg's bridal shower.  I know I took a photo of all of us, but it disappeared : (

The brides!

Sunset over the mall.  I like the little lights that look like mini suns

This looks like a graphic painting, but it is me!  Weak photo, I know, but at least I was messing with my controls!
So there are the first few days.  I figure now is a good time to start, with the holidays and all.  Based on the fact that this blog is already way better than my Twitter, I have learned that if you start strong, you go longer (I will refrain from a that's what she said joke...oh, wait, no I won't)

THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
