I can't believe it's been Two Years!!

I've just realised that last week was the 8th of May!
That means two whole years ago (and one week) I started sharing in this blog.
As I wrote my first blog post, I was a little hesitant about starting another blog, as I'd used other blog formats to share my work and ideas but I'd found them hard to stick with.

Here we are celebrating my blog's two year anniversary, it's an amazing feeling to know that I've finally found a space where I can share my ideas and keep adding to them and developing on them as time goes by.

I started writing in this blog to share my work and my ideas in one place, to show finished pieces of work but also to share pieces of work that I was working on. I also started writing in this blog to help find my audience; to share my work with my audience and to have a conversation with my audience.

I want to thank you all for coming along on this journey. Together we've almost reached 10,000 views! As I write this I still can't believe that's right, I'm checking my stats to see if I've rounded up that number but no, it's really there, as I'm writing this we are just a few views away from 10,000!

Writing in this blog has helped to develop my voice, which is something I've always struggled with, sharing my ideas in a cohesive manner was never a strength but over the years I have improved and in the years a head I aim to improve further.

As this blog post comes to a close, I'm filled with an amazing feeling, this journey that I embarked on two years ago is still going strong, this blog is looking better than ever and I think the best way to end this blog post is to share my hopes and dreams for the next two years.

1.  I hope to keep writing in this blog 
2. I hope to keep training and developing my voice 
3. Finally, I hope to have more of a conversation with my audience. 

I want you to share the blog posts that you relate to or find interesting and I want you to comment on these blog posts to continue our conversation.

 Who knows where we will be in two years time, maybe by then I'll be writing about how we're about to reach 20,000 views!

Until next time.

5 years ago...

It was 2010, I was on the final stretch to finishing my A levels. As part of my photography A level I was given the opportunity to create a blog, recording my thoughts, visions and influences on the project that I was working on during my photography exam.

Looking back at my old blog makes me realise how far I've come with my work. My photographic style has developed further and how my knowledge has lead me to the point I am at right now.


Anyway, If you want to give it a read, I've put the link here

5 Months!!

Today marks the 5 month anniversary of My Blog!!


In the past I have had a couple of different blogs, but I haven't really found them to be very useful, however with this blog, I've been inspired to update it at least once a week, and the feedback I am receiving from the blog has been highly beneficial to me in seeing what people like to see from my blog, what really works with the blog and what doesn't work with the blog.


Within the last 5 months, I've successfully updated atleast once a week, racking up a total of 3552 views on my blog, 65 blog posts and 6 comments.

Hopes for the next 5 months:

I'd like to reach 5 digits in views, that would be an amazing accomplishment,
also to reach 100 blog posts and to keep going strong with the blog and finally, I'd like for more interactions with my audience using the blog, that way we can both work towards the blog becoming more helpful for my audience.

anyways, to all reading, thank you for sticking with me for the last 5 months and I hope you've found reading my blog interesting,

please leave some feedback in the comment section!!
