I lost the password to my high school blogger account so I decided to create this one! It’s main purpose is honestly to backup my photos shot on film online. But I also plan to reflect on my day to day life. My hopes are to improve my storytelling ability and provide a glimpse behind to scenes to anyone interested. Thanks for stopping by!

Char has been busy working long shifts at the hospital with few days off. I’m so proud of her! There has been some tough days but she’s kicking ass overall.

One of the biggest sources of inspiration for this blog is Eliza Earle and her photo a day project which she has been doing for several years now. Eliza’s ability to find the beauty in everyday moments is something I want to strive towards. I’ve been challenged to create more at home during the pandemic and appreciate the simple scenes around the house.

Another source of inspiration was a recent We Got To Hangout podcast episode where host Christopher Stricklen interviewed Analog Talk. This made me realize the importance of having a space to study the art of photography.

January in the Sandia Mountains has been a delight. We have been able to ride the trails on the west side and ski on the east side! Not much more I can ask for close to home.
