Yesterday, I celebrated Taylor Elchert Photography’s fifth “birthday”. I allowed myself to take pictures for only about 10 minutes. I left the rest of the party to my sister, Allie, to capture with her point and shoot while I enjoyed the party. There was a point during the party after everyone (despite my resistance) had […]
I’m sitting on the floor in tears as I sift through our old photos. I know for a fact that you will laugh at me for crying and say something like, “Oh jeez…”. You always do. It’s late (or early depending on how you want to look at it) and your graduation is hours away. […]

Where am I going? What am I doing here? I find myself asking these questions often. More often than usual, these days. See, my heart craves accomplishment. It thrives on scrambling to meet goals.
