Happy New Year! What did everyone do for NYE? I ordered pizza, drank a bottle of champagne and sat on the couch watching true crime documentaries with my cats.
I did take a few minutes while waiting for my pizza to be delivered to review my year and it turns out I accomplished more than I thought I did. I spent nearly every Saturday morning for nine months in a virtual class learning how to edit photos in Lightroom. I experimented with making some self-portraits, still lifes (lives?) and long exposures. I figured out how to make a proper gallery on the blog (you can check-out the gallery from the Women’s March I attended back in October here). My photograph of the Fire Breather was used in a neighborhood newsletter. And last, but not least, my Etsy store accidentally went live on NYE. It was supposed to go live on January 1, but as per usual I don’t really understand the technical aspects of websites and I inadvertently launched it early.
In 2022, I’m gearing up to sharpen my skills in portraiture with my first in-person class since 2019! I’m going to polish up the Etsy store and add more prints and products. And finally get around to writing my About Me section for the blog (I’ve been putting it off for 4 years now) and Etsy store.
Do you make any resolutions or set any goals or intentions for the new year? I’d love know what they are!
Wishing you a happy, healthy and prosperous new year!
Cheers,
Bec
