Photography

My, but it’s been a busy week. Crazy, in fact! I’m currently in a summer course, and just began working as well, and the schedule is a little rough. I slept in today because I haven’t been able to for the past few days, despite being exhausted. I don’t want to drone on about my schedule though, because the fact is that I’m loving my job! And I am very nearly done this summer course (they go by so quickly!). And the summer is beginning to take shape, and I love it.

Project 365 has its good days and its bad ones. Mainly good. Some bad. Sometimes I get the shot right away and am super pleased with it! Sometimes I never get a shot I’m in love with. Most of the time I feel a bit dejected that my photography isn’t better, but then I remember that the whole point of this project is to practice and improve. And then I feel a bit better.

Thanks for following along! xo.

This week was full of pretty things. A peanut-butter chocolate cake with lovely striped candles. A market full of fresh produce, diffused light, fresh samples and amazing seafood.   An afternoon on a rooftop overlooking all of Montreal. A trip to a beautiful boutique!

I love having photos to look back over: it helps me to re-live the special moments of my life and remember how happy and blessed I am. Even the photos that seem so half-baked at the time seem to be more full of colour and more exciting than they felt at the time. The whole really is greater than the sum of its parts.

I’m happy. I’m in a good place. Big, fun things are happening and I finally feel like I’m coming into my own in some small way. I hope that you are happy too.
