Are you still there? I'm here.
I'm happily stressed. Kidding. I have had moments of stress, but mostly have been happy lately. It's winter, though not officially for a few more ideas, but it's here. It's cold. It's Michigan. What else should I expect? Well, not much. Just cold weather and plenty of opportunities to take pictures and use Lightroom to edit them.
So I've had Lightroom for a while but I finally purchased VSCO Film 5 Preset Pack for Lightroom and I'm screaming inside. The presets are beautiful and I didn't know that when you pick what camera you shoot with it'll optimize the presets specifically for your brand of camera. So it has presets for Nikon, Sony, Canon & then some. I like that. Very fancy. Anywhoozle. I'm super excited about the possibilities to come. It's going to be a good winter. Also! I need to take more pictures of people and lifestyle. Hit me up!
I mentioned I've been stressed. It's more of me adding pressure to myself because I have expectations. Expectations in life and expectations I set for myself to better improve in whatever I need improvement on. It's been an interesting journey when I separate myself from what stresses me out but it still stresses me out that I am slacking when I'm used to being able to succeed in certain aspects of the creative world I'm a part of. But I'm pushing myself to get there. The thing is, I love being able to learn from my mistakes because I know I can be better and that I'll get there. I guess that impatience to be patient, to see everything naturally unfold and be at a decently good place will always be a struggle. But that's what makes me me, right? I like to think so.
Anyways. There will be more posts to come. Apologies for being absent. Didn't mean to be.
