101 Goals in 1001 Days

Friday, January 22, 2016


I came across a 101 goals in 1001 days from one of my favorite photography bloggers Melissa Jill. Melissa is an INCREDIBLE photographer based out of Phoenix, Arizona. I fell in love with her photography when she shot a girlfriend of mines Wedding. The way Melissa is able to tell a story with her camera is incredible.  I subscribed to her blog and became a weekly visitor. Melissa has a way to make a wedding, no matter how big or small, incredibly beautiful. She was even the photographer of my wedding :) To view Melissa Jills Blog click here www.melisssajill.com

 Melissa Jill had written a post on this a couple years back and it always stuck with me. I think we are  all a continued work in progress.

  1. 35 and 67 are the same, but maybe you should do it twice! Or you could do something like a wine/food pairing workshop
