I’m so excited about it!

Flourish was an incredible, amazing success. The group of photographers that we had were totally fabulous, and were a huge part of what made the workshop so awesome. I just got home last night, so I’ll be posting more about it in the next few days (and likely on the new blog). Stay tuned!

I will seek to be worthy more than respectable, wealthy and not rich. I will study hard, think quietly, talk gently, and act frankly. I will listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, with an open heart. I will bear all things cheerfully, do all things bravely await occasions and hurry never. In a word I will let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common.” William Ellery Channing

Happy New Year, everyone. What are your resolutions this year?

Mine:

-Spend more time with friends and family

-donate my photography skills to a charity working to improve living conditions for people living in third world countries.

-Have a better work/life balance (I lean too far to the work side)

-Get in better shape

-purses made out of books. thanks to johanna for the link. i think these are a fabulous idea and just adorable.

-lookpink.com–a search engine that contributes its revenue to Breast Cancer Research. If over 1,000,000 people search with LookPink on any day before the New Year arrives, then over $100,000 will be generated by LookPink Search to help prevent breast cancer. so next time you do a search, use lookpink.com instead of google.

-i have puny little girl lashes. my solution: badgal lash mascara by benefit. hands down, the best mascara i’ve ever used.
