I seem to always find when I get down on myself as a creator and my back feels like it is against the wall, I come out swinging harder than before. A few months ago I was working on a project named “Everything Between”. This project was exploit the moments between the ups and downs instead of a highlight of our highs and lows. I documented the Kight family, specifically their youngest child Charlie. I followed him to school at the beginning of his school career (kindergarten) and back home where his mother and father would play with him and his sister then cook dinner. Just a normal day in the life of kind of. To me this was a huge success, it may not have soared to the top of social media or hit the New York Times but in my heart it just worked. So I picked up the phone and finally started calling people, I decided I would shoot for Fired Departments in Birmingham, AL this time around. So hopefully they will pass the idea along through city hall to get it approved. I am not excited about getting the gig just excited that I created an opportunity out of thin air. Here is to thin air and Charlie.
