Journey Of The Lens: The Blog » News http://www.journeyofthelensblog.com Gone on a Journey Mon, 06 Dec 2010 17:23:18 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 Back from hiatus http://www.journeyofthelensblog.com/2010/08/back-from-hiatus/ http://www.journeyofthelensblog.com/2010/08/back-from-hiatus/#comments Sat, 07 Aug 2010 09:22:24 +0000 admin http://www.journeyofthelensblog.com/?p=2193 Ok. I’ll admit it. I’m not a blogger. I try to stay on the blogging bandwagon & I just can’t seem to keep it up. Then what happens is I let these amazing travels, photo shoots and experiences pile up in my head and because I don’t make it a priority, they don’t get posted. So whether the solution is to hire someone to do my blogging for me (which I can’t really see since I like to my own writing) or to just put it in my appointment calendar and treat it like any other important meeting, I’m not sure. Either way.  I’m sorry & I hope you’ll continue to check back from time to time, as I will make every effort to be more diligent about maintaining this blog. There’s so much to post & I’m SO proud and SO excited to share some of the incredible images we’ve caught.

It’s been a while. First of all, my apologies for letting this go to, well….you know. If you’re reading this that means you’re one of the few & faithful who have continued to come back time after time in spite of my appalling inconsistency & the complete and utter lack of activity here. There’s been so much going on over the past couple of months that it has become overwhelming (to the point of procrastination) to stay on top of it all. I’m going to work on that.

Secondly, and more importantly, Happy New Year!! With the holidays now behind us & a new year ahead of us, I’m looking forward to finally sharing a TON of overdue work, as well as update you as to where this exciting Journey will take us in 2010! (Greece, Turkey & Italy are just a few destinations on the horizon, along with some very cool shoots & events already in the works!) Please check back soon for a bunch of new posts featuring some fantastic recent shoots!

On a totally different note, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, a lot of soul searching over the last few months. Ryan & I have had a lot of conversations lately about what it truly means to live each day with joy & contentment, regardless of what seems to be going on in or around our lives. And not just an attitude of “getting through something” or “figuring it out” but actually embracing the struggles, the questions, the whys. Learning to be ON the Journey and not just where you want to end up. Does that make sense? So much of how we’ve viewed success has been wrapped up in the arrival destination….but maybe we’re getting that wrong. Maybe success actually looks more like patience. Or joy. Or hope. Maybe it’s stepping out in faith when it seems impossible. Maybe it’s making yourself be still when all you want to do is run. What does success look like to you?

So, welcome back to the blog. It’s good to see you again. May your Journey in 2010 be full of beauty, life, hope, contentment and most of all real joy.
