365 self portraits. Can I actually do it? Inspired by many others, I decided to give my creativity a kick in the pants with a Daily Photo project. With life happening too fast, quite often I lose the spark that drives me to pick up the camera. Hopefully I can maintain not only this project, but the ability to develop more as a photographer. Ideally, the majority of these will be self-portraits to help me get over my image complex and to document the most important, memorable moments of each day.
My rules:
1. At least part of myself in each shot. Every 24 hours.
2. EXIF data pulls rank. I travel and can't always upload on a timely matter, but the timestamp is as the timestamp does...
3. Try to document the dominant activity/event of the day. This is a journal-type project for me, too.
4. Having help is OK. While I always set up the shot myself, occasionally the location requires having someone else hit the shutter for me.

Pillow fight at Linda's! Saturday night: another date night with the girls. We had a great time stuffing our faces and watching Ab Fab on DVD. I am bloated on veggies and even a scoop of delicious homemade mac 'n cheese as a cheat.
We've all known each other for a long time now, and in a way I don't even know how it happened. Sure we've all grown and changed through the years but we are all so constant. Like Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte we are such different people but have shared and gone through so much.
I'm not great at group portraits but I know I want a good one of us. This one will do for now, but I'll noodle over it...
