And so, as I close one chapter, a new one opens.

Today I begin a new blog. A new writing venture built on my experiences as a photographer and writer.

Many years ago, while I studied MA journalism at Birkbeck, I attempted a blog of similar description. A venture that soon fizzled away because of competing demands - a growing family, building a photography portfolio, writing a degree, blah blah.

Back then I had no serious intentions of consistency. My scattershot approach and obsessive nature steamrolled ahead with all the components I felt necessary to transition into a professional photography career. I couldn’t be certain which areas would fulfil me the most, so I did it all.

Maturity comes with a slowing down, a more considered approach, and it is this mindset I aim to bring to this blog.

More to follow from tomorrow.
