So you went somewhere rad, you were having such a good time that you didn't post about it - did it actually happen? Stupid question, but I am definitely guilty of this. If I'm going to a highly anticipated concert or to some cool event, I feel that need to post about it, whether I'm posting selfies or play-by-play tweeting about it. As a photographer, I truly feel the need to photograph important events in my life a lot more than the typical human being. I post about everything from my morning coffee to the part I was at last weekend.
But lately, I've been trying to a little less posting and a lot more living. It's quite freeing to be able to simply live in the moment rather than worrying about having wifi to post or having good light to take a photo. While it's nice to be able to share a moment with 1,000 of your closest friends, it's also even nicer to live in the moment with whoever you're with. You guys can always tell people about it later. This is something I like to remind myself if I'm ever feeling remorse about not taking any pictures.
I promise, it happened even if there is no photographic evidence.
Live a little
