Resolute
Happy new year everyone! This year I’ve made some photography related resolutions, and I thought I would post them here. I’ve tried to make them measurable and realistic, so feel free to make fun of me if I screw up on any of these.
1. Go out and take more pictures for fun. Sometimes I get so caught up in taking pictures for clients that I feel like I don’t have time to take pictures for myself. But whenever I actually make the time to shoot for myself, I have a great time and end up with great shots. At least once a week, I’m going to just go somewhere and walk around with my camera. I’ve actually been pretty good about this lately, but it never hurts to set a specific goal.
2. Make more prints. These days a lot of the pictures we take just end up on the internet, and never become anything more than ones and zeroes. I think that’s sad. There’s still something great about holding an actual printed photograph in your hands (especially big ones), and I plan to make at least one print every week.
3. Post something on this blog at least once a week. Obviously I’ve not been doing a great job keeping this blog updated since, um, last September. But there’s no point in dwelling on the past. I’ve set a goal, and I plan to stick to it. If a week goes by without anything new showing up here, you have my permission to call me a big, dumb flake in person or via email.

I look forward to seeing more of your work. I enjoyed the stuff you posted last year for various Oakland events — some great stuff. So keep posting, you big, dumb flake
