Project 365 Photos: Update 3

 
Hey guys!

It's been far too long since the last projet 365 photos update, I know.

For those of you who don't know about the project, it's really simple: you take one photograph a day throughout the entire year to document your life.

2014 is nearly over and I think that's a good time to show you some more of my photos.
Maybe this will encourage you to start the project yourself.

I started on January 1st and until today I have not missed out one day. Taking one photo a day can be tricky for so many reasons. But if you can motivate yourself to do it, this project is a fantastic way to document your life. There are so many things your brain wont remember itself, so why not help out by taking a photo?

Some of you might worry about not being able to photograph something exciting each day.
That's completely fine. Honestly, my life is not exciting every day. There are some days where I just sit at my desk and work and that is really nothing special. But those days happen so why not document them?

I am definitely going to finish the project this year and continue in 2015. I just can't wait to look back on it in a few years. :)


Here are some of the latest shots.
May you enjoy!

September 4th: I've developed a pretty unhealthy obsession with hydrangeas this year...

September 15th: Learned the beginning of Hozier's "Cherry Wine". Beautiful but difficult!

September 20th: Pumpkin timeeeeeeeeeeee.

October 10th: Walks with the little Mr are always fun. Even he is smiling!

October 19th: Flea market in Berlin on a Sunday - can't think of a better combination.

October 24th: Oh you sweet little macarons.

October 28th: New house in the sand work space! Oh so vintage!

November 1st: About 30% of all photographs are sky/sunset photographs.

November 2nd: Furry, elegant friend.


November 8th: Told you...

 

November 15th: Photographed Ed Sheeran, what an incredible performer.

December 6th: Put the tree up! It's the "small people" edition.

December 12th: Heaven took away someone special that day.

 

December 15th: Spontaneous shooting outside.

Alrighty, that's it. I hope you enjoyed a few more insights.


Let me know if you have done the project before OR if you are thinking about doing it next year.

Project 365 Photos: Update 2

 

Hey guys!

It's been a while since I last give you an update on my version of the Project 365 Photos.

For those of you who don't know about the project, it's really simple: you take one photograph a day throughout the entire year to document your life.

Now for the first 6 months I tried to only photograph the positive things of the day. For the second half of the year I decided to also document things that maybe didn't make me happy or didn't go well.

Life doesn't always treat us well but exactly that is life. In my opinion 'bad' things, just like the good things, define the person you are.
So it's ok to let them happen and also document them somehow.

Ok I'm drifting away, sorry.

Without any more rambling, here are some of my pictures.

May 25th, Berlin times. My favourite Liverpoolians The Arkanes played their first headliner in Germany. Good, crazy and chaotic times!

June 11th, got the kitten a new bed. Sat in there for about 5 minutes, then left. So glad I got a picture of her actually using it.

 

June 20th, I know all words to this song! It took a while to learn them though...

 

 

July 13th, found a balloon with a message on it. SO CUTE. Risked my life to catch it though, haha.

July 17th, Berlin, again. Had the best time ever and also caught these two guys in concert. Happy days.

July 27th, clouds clouds clouds.

July 28th, the clouds sent some rain. Melody loves her bed by the window.

July 30th, so proud of house in the sand. And so thankful for the wonderful friends I have. So I took an old school screen shot.

 

July 31st, the wild cat appears again.

 

August 5th, little 'press-photo-photo-shooting'.

 

August 7th, I love flowers.

August 10th, super moon and super cloudy skies. Meh.

Well, I think this should be enough.
I'm actually really surprised I could keep up with the project. It's definitely a wonderful way to remember the little things and the lovely memories.

Really excited to see what the next (and final) four months of this project will bring. 

I hope you enjoyed this little update. :)

Thank you for reading!

Project 365 Photos | Update

Hey guys,

How are your new years resolutions doing? Are they already forgotten or are you still working on them?

I'm honest - I didn't even try to set up that many resolutions. If I want to change something I try to do it instantly, not in a new year.

But there was one project I learned about December 29th. 

The project '365 Photos'.

 The name gives it away, doesn't it? This project is all about taking one photograph a day to document your year.

I wanted to do it because I love having events captured on photographs, because I wanted to learn more about my camera and push myself to my limits creatively.

So I started on January 1st and am still going.
Because sharing all 365 at the end of the year would be impossible, I decided to show you a few shots every once in a while.

Hope you enjoy!
