$2607.88 The cost to Dream

So I’ve decided that what I really want to do is work on expanding my photography into something I can possibly make a living at.

My sister played alot of percussion in highschool, and I have a lot of pictures of her playing this same instrument. Alot of times, Cammy reminds me of my sister.

New blog post coming eventually but I have been tired as of late- although not as much as usual. Baby is fine – body is being difficult about this whole birthing of a human thing.
