Shoot for Selfie

My photography motto has always been “shoot for self.” Photograph who and what you love. Love cats, photograph cats. Love cats and milk, photograph cats drinking milk from a saucer. Love yourself, make a selfie. Selfies get a bad rap, I blame Instagram. Selfies are a record in time, a record of yourself. Being that I’m the documentarian in the family, rarely are there photos of me.

So here I am.

I’ve got another project that I want to start this summer, still formulating it my head. It’s gonna be great, like get me into Magnum, Pulitzer Prize great, or maybe just a “nice job son” from my mom, a participation trophy even. Either way, can’t wait to get it started.

Because it’s my blog and my readership of one, demands more content.
