October

I’m excited to share something I've been thinking about for a while—a personal challenge to grow as a photographer. Lately, I’ve noticed that complacency has started to creep into my photography, and like with any skill, the more comfortable you get, the more stagnant your progress can feel. Whether it’s photography, golf, or juggling, if you're not actively challenging yourself, things can start to feel a bit stale.

Even though I’ve had some amazing trips this year—Alaska, Hawaii, and exploring around Washington and Oregon—I’ve realized that to truly improve, I need to step outside my comfort zone. So, I’ve decided to embark on a daily photography challenge for the month of October. And I want to invite you to join me on this journey!

This month, I’m challenging myself to something new: every day, I’m taking a unique photo and writing a short journal entry to go along with it. No rules on how much I need to write, but the goal is to stay present, capture the moments that matter, and reflect on them. It’s all about appreciating life as it happens.

I captured this photo because I loved the contrast between the dark tree trunks and the vibrant green ferns and leaves. I have a feeling it will look completely different by the end of the month.
