Well, shucks. My streak of posting every day ended at just over two-hundred and fifty consecutive days. While this bums me out, I also picked up a wife in my absence so I am calling it a win! The week of chaos leading up to our wedding on Saturday proved too much to overcome and I decided that some things are more important than posting silly pictures to the internet.

Annoyingly, Squarespace only allows up to 250 images in the image gallery, which we have now surpassed, and I’m not sure my best solution moving forward. This further demoralized me and caused me to consider something new moving forward. No decisions have been made thus far, so I will attempt to get back into the swing of a daily post and see where life takes me as I attempt to get back into the normal routines of not being the center of attention and having a million tasks being asked of you each and every day.

Also, I’m married!!

This frame was made while out wandering with Allison & Haley. It’s one of many images included in the Art Postcard Packs I made last year, which are available to purchase in the Good Things Vending machine in the lobby of the Kimball Arts Center, where my See You Soon studio exists. You can also purchase them on my Instagram shop (no idea how to link to this or even get it to show up πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ), which has had one customer at the time of this writing (I’m a failed e-commerce store owner πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ).

The Postcard Packs are great and super affordable at only $1each ($15 for 15) and also many of them come with a code for a free Keep it 100 portrait shoot.

I’m basically giving them away and should probably change this approach since perception of value is half the battle when it comes to art.
