Today I am 28. Considering that 27 was one of the most exciting (and challenging) year of my life, I can’t wait to see what happens next. The next 12 months include shooting around 20 weddings, my 4th US tour with Smallpools (and others), my best friend’s wedding, and just before the end of the year- moving to Los Angeles (surprise?). And that’s just what I know.
A lot of photographers post a “Best of 2014” photo roundup on their blogs featuring their favorite photos of the last calendar year. I chronically wait too far into January every year to put one together myself, so I decided to do a post on my birthday over my favorite photos from my 27th year. I selected 100 photos, not for their technical execution or significance to the subject, but because I just personally really like them, or because of what they mean to me. And this is only a fraction of the images I wanted to post.
Check out my musical obsession of the last year, Handsome Ghost:
