Starting a personal project is like beginning a journey into your self. It is a way to explore topics you might otherwise never discuss openly. It is about finding yourself, sharing with others and healing. I have done a number of personal projects over the years, and there are many still to come. Below you will find some more information about each of these – and you can also check out the personal projects tag on the blog to find out the latest information about them!

self portraits
I’m not perfect – far from it. And these imperfections have impacted my life more than I would like to admit. This on-going series is about discovering myself, and overcoming my blocks.

we are family
What is a family? What does it actually mean? How has the meaning of the word changed? This is another on-going project I am working on – sharing that there are so many different ways to be a family – and each of these is important.

project 365
Taking an image every day is a challenge, but I have been doing it for years now. It is the main project I do, and I do it for my children – to give them a memory of the everyday.
