While I&#8217;ve collected supplies (chemicals, enlargers, equipment), and I&#8217;ve known that one day I will set up a dark room &#8211; I want to go beyond that. I want to photograph, develop, scan, and print my own everything. I want to extend <a href=\"http:\/\/thewhiterabbitstudios.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">White Rabbit Studios<\/a> to be more than just a wedding and portrait photography businesses. I want to create genuine art with my hands &#8211; the entire process. Color and b\/w film. While I&#8217;m already shooting with film (one of my goals met yay), but I currently send off the film for developing. I want everything I deliver to my clients to be handmade: from the prints, to the albums, to the boxes. The more I can do myself or locally, the better.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m in the beginning process of making this a reality and couldn&#8217;t be more excited! Of course, I have to remember to take deep breaths and have patience. I&#8217;ve been looking at studio spaces (at Lowe Mill, or course) &#8211; planning, scheming, and dreaming. I&#8217;m the type that as soon as an idea pops in my head, I&#8217;m ready to hit the ground running to make it happen. However, I&#8217;m giving myself about a year and a half to make this thought tangible &#8211; by the time I&#8217;m 30. I love having set goals and I realize that&#8217;s the best way Andy and I both are. We love working towards something and always having our minds focusing ahead. Ever since we&#8217;ve been together, it&#8217;s how we&#8217;ve grown all of our businesses. I feel like this is another stepping stone for our path. It&#8217;s always thrilling when the next milestone makes itself known to us.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s to the future! Three cheers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let this blog post be the first scribbles of the direction I want to go.
