So I started today.  I will hopefully take a picture everyday but sometimes I know I'll forget.  I won't always take it on my camera, sometimes on my phone.  And I won't always post everyday I'm sure.  But I really hope to stick to it!

Here's my first picture, not the best picture but the sweetest one I took.

My 365 Day Photo Project

Welcome to my 365 project!  I have decided to partake in a project where I take a picture every day for a year.  I am very excited to participate in this and hope that it helps me to stay motivated to take pictures more often and to learn more about photography.

Camera: Canon Rebel T3
Lenses: 50mm 1.8 & kit lens
