[Peek at the bridal shoot here]
I constantly find myself slipping into some preconceived notion of self-diagnosed inadequacy. They say you are your biggest critic. But at the same time, I think it's important to be your biggest fan. Can't say I've mastered this; heck, I will tell you right now this is hypocrosy. Time after time, I compare myself to those around me, finding faults and flaws in things I do - wishing I could be a more creative photographer, snowboard better, draw more, dance again, look more like so-and-so. While goals are obviously important, our goals should be centered around ourselves; not others.
Again, coming from me this is 140% bogus, seeing as I am completely guilty of the said offense. But I am making a conscious effort to simply strive to make MY ____ better than the last. Whether that be a photo shoot, snowboard trip, or test score. Progress comes through improvement, not comparison. As long as we're progressing we really don't have anything to complain about, right?

My husband has a theory that when we are progressing we are happy.
When you move forward in life or accomplish even any small goal, you are happy.
How cool is that?
back again.
Where is this magical place? These photos are amazing. I love them all. You have a serious talent for composition.
