It’s the year 20126.
I’m well into into my first year of Professional Photography at NSCC.
(which is literally being removed from NSCC because apparently the need for more trades and health care also means we need less art?)
I’m spending most of my time behind the camera, not in front of it, with the exception of a standing model for fellow photog friends. I’m honing my skills, discovering my editing style, deciding who I want to be as a photographer and trying out Bo***ir for the first time.
I spend the summer exploring with friends - camera in hand, and spending a lot of time with the love of my life: Abby my childhood dog, my soul mate, the girlie we lost less than a year ago. My heart hasn’t recovered yet.
Danny and I move into our first place together in Dartmouth, close to the school, on top of a very steep hill, super icy in the winter time.
I’m a poor student, a starving artist, working in the NSCC Waterfront Campus library in between classes for change.
I’m doing nothing but breathing, thinking, living photography and I have a million photos of beaches, tree branches, my food, random objects, and pets, all with the most atrocious editing cluttering up my personal Facebook albums to prove it.
I think this year is safe to leave in the past. Better years are yet to come.
