‘What did you do all day? Dream’ - Seeker

Goodbye February, Hello March! So, after two weeks of unexpected downtime thanks to catching that little known virus that has been doing the rounds since March 2020, I am finally getting myself back on track and in the planning stages of a new photography series. Although it has been around ten days since testing negative, I have found that I am still struggling at times with my energy levels, bouts of tiredness and concentration. I guess it’s true what they say about that brain fog!

As it had left me feeling quite low and uninspired I decided to enroll in the lovely Jenny’s @Nordic_Stories online community where she shares a behind the scenes look at how she creates her beautiful images. I have been following Jenny for awhile now and always find her work so refreshing.  I don’t know what it is about that Nordic style, but I find myself being more and more drawn to it, a moment of calm in an ever-changing, fast paced world.

Be sure to follow Jenny’s beautiful storytelling : @nordic_stories

I think it’s important as a creative to look for new sources of inspiration, to being open to learning new skills and to approach projects with a new way of thinking. It’s then that you find the ideas and creativeness begin to flow again freely… which leads me to my new project!

I want to create a photography series that combines my love of vintage with my love of beaches (my take on calm versus fast-pace). I can picture it in my head, the shots that I want to capture but I’m not completely sure how it will turn out. That’s what makes photography so exciting, not knowing if and how certain elements will come together, but finding a way to make it work to get that all important shot!
