DO MORE . That is what this life is all about isn’t it? An opportunity to be our best selves each day. A chance to literally DO MORE in every sense of the word. Whether that be personally, professionally, in relationships, within one’s own spirit. Doing more is always a goal. I sometimes find myself overwhelmed with all of life’s possibilities and the chance I have to do more each and every moment. I honestly can say it is a journey I embrace with fervor. Sometimes I feel accomplished in my quest and other times I feel failure staring me down. Either way it is one heck of a challenge and I am up for it. That being said one of my goals has finally come to fruition.
After a long and much anticipated wait for return (anticipated by me anyway) I am finally back with a NEW BLOG in tow! It has been a long time coming and has pretty much felt like forever since I have done this. I used to be at my computer several times a week documenting my online diary of sorts, sharing my images and thoughts. I could make excuses such as busy lifestyle, two jobs, waiting on everything to be just perfect, however I am going to stop all of that and just welcome you here—to my page—to my thoughts—and to a piece of me. First blog post on the new blog…HOLLAAA! Let me just say right now I am honored that you even choose to read this and that while some of us have met and some of us have not I am so very blessed to have each person take a vested interest in my journey- both photographic and life. As those who kept up with me before know this is not just a place where I share my photos, it is also a place where I just pose random thoughts to the internet. So thank you dear readers.
Right now I must give mad props and a huge THANK YOU is to my awesome, patient, talented, uberFAB, incredible blog designer Matt Hudson. He rocked this design like no one else could have and was so wonderful to work with. Matt took my ideas (and let me tell you there were so many of them) and streamlined them into one cohesive look. I think he perfectly captured my modern with a splash of vintage vibe and I am so very grateful to him. Thank you Thank you Thank you Matt! Anyone looking for a design should definitely contact Matt through his design company H2 designs. You can also find him on facebook.
As I close this first short but sweet post I want to leave you with a photo of one of my main sources of inspiration. Her name is CHALENE JOHNSON. I have so much to say about Chalene but I will leave that as well as other “do more” thoughts for another time. Promise i won’t be a stranger!

I took this photo when I attended Camp Do More this past summer in California. Oh dear friends soooooooo much to tell you about. Stay tuned!
