I can chalk 2011 as the year I took on too many personal projects. Don’t get me wrong, I loved every single one of them. In fact, many of them are still going strong, including What ____Looks Like, and Elevate | A Fine Art Photography Exploration, as well as Grace in [Focus]. But I’ve struggled …
One of my favorite things about “after Christmas” is taking down and putting away Christmas. Don’t get me wrong. I’m just as enthusiastic to put it up the first of December.
