2026 Color Project is getting kicked off this month with the color brown. Brown may sound blah, but lots of my favorite things are brown. Chocolate, coffee, croissants, my favorite little horse….

Week 1 | Center Composition

It’s a new year and a new 52 Clicks. I’ve made it a goal to complete this year’s project on film. It’s a loose goal. Some weeks could end up being digital. But I am optimistic. 💁🏻‍♀️

Week 52: Word of the Year—Simplicity

I spent a lot of time mulling over what word I would choose to be my focus for 2026. Initially I wanted it to be discipline. I desperately need more discipline in every aspect of my life. But also, I need life to be simpler. Less complicated. Less stressful.

I came to realize that simplicity is and discipline are connected. Simplicity makes it easier to be disciplined, and discipline can make my life simpler.

So, I choose simplicity to be my word for 2026, in life and in my photography.

These last two days of the year I want to share some of my favorite images I shot on film. It’s been a lot of fun picking up a film camera after so many years. It’s a lot like coming home.

My goal next year is to shoot lots more on film. And decided to combine my film account with my regular one, as I hope to have at least equal, if not more, film work than digital.

So to start with, here are some of my favorite nature shots.

Last month I did something completely out of my comfort zone. Portraits. I was asked to shoot my niece’s senior portraits. We ended up doing a “practice session”. While I still have lots of room for improvement, I am happy to say I didn’t totally botch things. 😂

Actually, I think they turned out pretty good for my first time shooting portraits. I think by spring, we can do some amazing things.

Thanks, Evie, for being my guinea pig!

I love vintage advertisements. This Mountain Dew ad is way before my time, but the nostalgia is still there.

For fun, I shot one image on my Fujifilm X-T5 with a film recipe, and the other was shot on my OM-10 with Portra 400. Can you guess which is the film?
