Today is the last day of the year. Plus, the whole decade is coming to its end, so there’s so much to recap! We’ve all made many mistakes (and hopefully learned from them), and we’ve made a lot of good and bad decisions. A year’s end is always a good time for setting goals and guidelines that will help us grow and become better in the year ahead of us. And I’d like to share my thoughts and inspire you to set realistic goals without putting too much pressure on yourself.

10 Best Business Resolutions For Photographers
Alright 2016, let’s chat for a sec…
Last year I wrote about my 10 Best New Year’s Resolutions for Photographers and I’m happy to say I followed most of them. I even printed my photos, which means there are photos of my husband and new daughter in my house right now as I write this. Fellow photographers I know you know what a big deal this is, so just allow me a moment to bask in the glory of all your collective high fives.
Go On A Photography Vacation This Year!
Thinking back over this past year, there’s one thing that stands out for me as something that was immensely enjoyable, fulfilling and really helped me to forget about the day to day grind of running a photography business…I went on a photography vacation.
For one week in July I clocked over 3000 miles on a rental Kia compact travelling across the US southwest. Using a good old fashioned paper map and sticking to the back roads as much as possible, I started in Albuquerque New Mexico, made my way up through Bisti/De-Na-Zin, past Shiprock to Monument Valley Utah, back down through Arizona and eventually to White Sands in New Mexico (I will publish a more detailed account of this trip in a future article).
I didn’t have any particular itinerary or schedule in mind except to make sure that I was at the right place at the right time to create the best photos I could. I was solo for the first half of this trip and joined by my wife for the second half.
This is the first time I have travelled somewhere solely for the purpose of photography – and if you’re a photographer its something that I highly recommend.
In this article I thought that it would be fun to post a few of my favorite photos from the trip and try to inspire you to try something similar.
