Sundays are for dreaming
Iceland - watching the aurora and the Milky Way was incredible!
I love Sundays. After a week of working on the business of photography, I allow myself the time to dream about future photography projects that I'll begin to work towards. Some are personal projects, which are so important to the creativity of a photographer - and some are business projects - and some meet halfway, combining business and personal. These are always my favourite, when I can capture landscapes and nature in a way that is also financially rewarding.

Today, I'm dreaming about a project I've dreamt of for a few years - icebergs. Since travelling to Iceland a few years ago to photograph seascapes on a black volcanic sandy beach for a commercial project, I've had a dream of returning to the region to photograph portraits of icebergs. Weird, wonderful and melting.
I love their shapes and deep colours, and I feel it would be an incredible book to display these beautiful, otherworldly objects of nature that most people will never see.

After the dreaming comes the practical, and the finance to make this a reality. The connections are the key to any project getting off the ground - a company or individual who also knows the value of dreaming big - and then a journey becomes a reality - and that becomes an adventure that leads to places new and exciting...
