Why this 365 Project?

My name is Rosaura Sandoval and I am a photographer based in the Northern California’s Bay Area.  I am starting this project to push myself and grow as a photographer and story teller.   I am a little scared of making this commitment but I’m going for it.  I have a busy life:  I’m married, have an energetic 2.5 year old, a big immediate family and a good stream of clients.  But I really want to challenge myself to make the time to do this.  Challenge myself to pick up my camera daily, see daily, capture daily, process daily, post daily… be a photographer daily with just one picture.

I fully suspect that there will be days when I feel I don’t have anything to photograph.  And that’s where it gets interesting.  I _have_ to try to find it.  Some days I will win and some days I will lose.  But my goal is to just do it and not worry about perfection.

Rules for myself in this project is that it be FRESH:  Photo made that day.    If I’m traveling a lot, I may post something from my iphone but I promise not to use that as a crutch.

So please stick around and see my progression.  I welcome the company.  🙂  Be forewarned.  There _will_ be tons of photogs of Gemma, my baby girl, but that’s ok.  She’s a hard one to photograph.  🙂

Gracias!
