Making It Work

When I look back through my extremely unorganized WD hard-drive (equivalent to that old storage unit which charges your credit card monthly but is never used except, mine is filled with extremely inconsistent quality photos) I get frustrated. My frustration isn't provoked by my poor choice in angles or ignorance to simple photography "rules" (rules that at times should be broken but first must be learned), no my frustration lies within the lack of photos, poor angles or not.

From January last year I have about fours folders of photos... that's only four shoots. In February I only had two folders of photos and in March, I had four photos total. It felt cheap, as if I had cheated my self out of three months of opportunity, three months of growth. I am determined to not let this happen in 2018 and as much as I wish to commit myself to 365 days of photos, I've ecided to start small. My goal has been two shoots a week.

These photos are the outcome of a crunch on time, no lunch, and lack of preparation for the Latin quiz that would follow. Location should never be an excuse, whether it be a poor lit Latin building, or the (still poorly lit) backyard of Grace's house, make the best of what you have. What makes these shoots so great is that they were fun that they were a challenge.
