I used to stare at blank newspaper layouts every day, wondering what the heck I was going to put in them. Blogging as a constantly working photographer is a different story: there is SO MUCH to share that not only is there not enough time, it’s easy to intimidate yourself: “Out of the thousands of shots I’m proud of, is *this* what I should post in expense of others? Is it weird to post at 3 a.m. on a Wednesday?”
Next week, I’m running a marathon. Not a real one, but it’s my last three-wedding weekend of the year, with the last sure to be one of my longest-ever working days. Before that, I will be plying you with all sorts of gear geekery from New York’s Photoplus Expo.
But I want to tell some stories about the great weddings I’ve had the pleasure to shoot! So I’m vowing here and now to blog at least four weddings between now and PhotoPlus on Thursday. Even if, to get there, I will have to start drinking coffee that was made out of grinding coffee beans in existing coffee.
As a reward, I will pre-order a new Nikon D3s for next season. Ok, I would do that anyway, but let me incentivize!
