I made it through week 1 of my 365 Daily Project on Instagram! Woo Hoo!
Why did I decide to take on this project?
I wanted to push my creativity. My routine doesn’t vary much from day to day. I wanted to be able to view my life in different ways – in the details, in the story or from a different perspective. I also wanted to capture and tell the story of my daily life. Sometimes as photographers, we look towards the big projects or the glamour. There’s so much beauty in the every day. And I certainly have my own story to tell.
The biggest challenge comes mostly during the work week. I can’t stand the fluorescent lighting in the building and it’s dark by the time we get home. I’m looking forward to seeing what I can come up with next week and try to think outside of the box a little more.
The first day of the year was my favorite image. I spent the day with those most important to me, doing what was important to our family – connecting and living a healthy lifestyle. I loved the crisp cool air and the clear winter day (California living!!!). See the photo below, along with other photos from the week.
I also invite you to join in the daily fun on instagram with A Mommentary Life!

Check back in next week for another week of daily life.
I love using instagram but I don’t get to use it at work, which is a large part of my time. Looking forward to seeing future pictures for this project!
That’s why I struggle. I spend so much time at work and it’s dark by the time I get home. It’s a challenge to find something creative in a cubicle.
