How I view where I live | Naperville Lifestyle Photographer

Do you really need to meet and see a person to become friends? Do virtual friendships really work? Can friends who you have never met or spoken to really help you grow? Are they really there for you?

Well! the answer to all these questions is an overwhelming “YES”. For the past few months, I have had the opportunity to “meet” several amazing women through an online class that I have been taken. These women are awesome – they are mothers, they are entrepreneurs, they are friends and most of of they are super nice and SO helpful!. They were there to answer questions at odd hours and offer words of encouragement when all I wanted to do was throw in the towel! A bunch of us from that group are participating in a blog circle – what a great way to help and motivate each other to grow as artists and as photographers. We pick topics and shoot/document our interpretation of the specific topic of the month.

The topic for February is “How I view…where I live”. Being in the thick of winter, these snowy images are life around me in my neck of the woods!!

Can you guess the cityscape in the picture? – It’s the city with the big shoulders and deep dish pizzas πŸ™‚

Don’t forget to follow the circle and check out Mary Beth’s blog post Β here. And while you are there, check out her website. She is an amazing artist and a wonderful photographer! – I wish my kids were younger so I could have Mary Beth photograph their cake smash parties!!!
