My family did way back when, but there aren’t any photos, sorry.
I love the idea though. 🙂

I have had to put my photography business on hold due to my dad being poorly – I’m heartbroken at the thought of losing both. Brooke, you have inspired me to look deeper and given me hope that I can carve a new path creatively which provides freedom not loss. This is what I’m brainstorming right now – new paths/new ideas/a new way to live and create. Thank you Brooke.

In reply to suza white. Yes there’s all that meaning related to rebirth, expanding to fill one’s environment and leaving behind constraints (I need to put this all in my ideas notebook!).

In reply to Juliette. We’ll have to stay in touch and see how the images turn out! This has actually motivated me to get creating!

The image is stunning. So excited I get to see it. Before Creative Live I would have had no idea!! I am working on a 4 piece series about my children. It is about discovery and growth. I have one image done and on my Instagram page but the others have been a work in progress for so long, nearly 6 months. I am being held back by time. I have small children and work part time and am trying to set up a photography business. I want the images to be perfect. I want the time to work on them when I am NOT tired. I worry that will never happen. Then again I think maybe time and tired are just an excuse. I hope not.

Can’t wait to see your new series. Natalie Lennard (formerly Miss Aniela)has been exploring her new project series on birthing. It sounds like your new project will be exploring aspects of the end of life. Interesting how two of my favorite creatives have chosen similar yet opposite subjects for their next focus. I’m sure it’s going to be a great year and can’t wait to see your treatment of such a heavy subject! And thanks for sharing your thoughts and deep thinking that goes into your work, it’s very inspiring! Have a safe trip to India!

For now I’m exploring in 2 sides: moody and conematic stories (short films and photo) and conceptual stories about existence (film and photo) I try to get a work full of emotion and evocative but also natural, organic, I’m still trying to talk about existence as part of my nees to express my feelings. Thank you for sharing your experiences and art!

This year I am steeping way out of my photographic box,and putting myself in front of the camera. I work as a real estate photographer so what i do doesn’t allow for a lot of creativity and I miss being creative.

I have started to brainstorm and write down ideas about telling the dark story of my past. Some days it is so hard to reopen those wounds to tap into the emotions and feel so helpless and vulnerable again, but I feel so strongly in my heart it is time to open up and let it be. Things I have learned so far is I am very awkward in front of the camera even when it is just me.

I’m currently on what I would call an artist block. I’m truly glad to know that I’m not the only one that feels the need to drag out art projects, to create a steady pace of creativity. The project I’m working on is almost done but it is missing something and I can’t figure out what. I’m trying to convey a very moody deep picture. The pictures is of a white rabbit with glowing eyes in the middle of some shrubs and branches. You’ve been caught in snowstorm on a cold winter night. The scene is foggy made in a way that makes you feel as if you stubbled upon this rabbit digging through the bushes. I originally intended to add a rabbit hole somewhere near him. But I’m struggling with the composting and blending right now. The meaning behind my picture was trying to translate how how deep the “rabbit hole goes”. Signifying my battles with depression; in the sense of how deep some of these scars run. This piece in particular means a lot to me and I need it to be perfect. I want my image to impact others as well; my goal is to create powerful images like you someday.

Your posts continue to be inspiring. With the amount of negativity within many of the social media circles it’s refreshing to find posts such as yours. I plan on revising my website with some newer work, however my ‘other’ job is rather psychologically consuming. In the back of my mind however, one project that I have in mind is a shoot in a actual gothic castle. So many possibilities.. perhaps one day.
