November 2015 Goals

So I have 3 questions for all of you! And if you leave a comment with all 3 answers, you’ll automatically be entered in a drawing to win Jess Ray’s new album, which is ALL I’m listening to these days. It’s SO good. So get ready:

1. What do you want to read more about on this blog?
2. What would you like to learn / see on periscope? (Do you even know what that is?)
3. If we had an online shop in 2016, what would you like to see in the shop? (This can be anything: photography lessons, fine art prints, ebooks, etc)

I’m gearing up for the end of the year, thinking of goals and a full year without maternity leave. (What? I get 4 months back!) It’s the time of year when I begin to dream big and my ideas can get a little crazy, so that’s where you come in! I would love your input.

To be honest, here is what I’m thinking:

I love film and I love fine art photography. I love a beautiful, consistent brand and I love blogging. But I also love community, comments, conversation, and connection. I love teaching. I have long felt that “fine art photographers” are a bit elusive and mysterious, which isn’t a bad thing at all, but it’s just not who I am. Yes, I want to offer stunning, fine art, heartfelt film images that inspire anyone who sees them, but I ALSO want to be honest, to be transparent, to be more conversational with our lives and our work. I feel like 2016 is the year for us – the NRP Team – to bridge gaps and connect with not only our clients, but our readers and followers too.

So with that – let us know. What do you want to learn? How would you like to connect? I’m dreaming up all kinds of ways to connect you to resources that we love, whether it’s books or online courses, or even some courses we will offer ourselves. In short, what would YOU like to know about us?

So excited for what’s to come. And because I don’t say it enough, thank you SO much for reading and following. It really means the world to us!
