Love the list and you’ve shared some great ideas! You mentioned printing photos—what type of albums do you use? Perfectionism has largely kept me from printing regularly and I need to overcome it!

It’s an ongoing research project… I’ve made several magazines with Blurb and loved them (plus they’re SO affordable), and then in 2023 we did a classic album with plastic sleeves and 4x6” prints because I didn’t have it in me to design anything. I’m going to do it again for 2024. If I branch out, I’ll be sure to share!

Thanks for sharing! Shooting on film is on my list for 2025 as well. And if you're looking for artists to be interviewed, I'd love to be considered :)

Thank you for reminding me about Gretchen's yearly lists! Had totally forgotten about them. I'm going to put mine together, and "photo painting" is going to be swiftly added to my list!
