The Beginning - Self Portrait

Week One: 

My little sister, Sarah Zacharias and I have decided to challenge ourselves this year and start a photo blog together called The 52x2 Project. We have created a list of themes for each week of the year 2015 and want to share it with you guys. It was a late idea of ours therefore we are getting started later than we should. 

The first week we have chosen to do a self portrait called The Beginning as this is a new chapter and project for us and we want to look back and see our progress in not only ourselves but as photographers too. 

Sarah is my 15 year old little sister living in Winnipeg and I am a 22 year old living in Toronto. I am in my 3rd year as a photo major at OCAD U and I am doing this to not only bond with my sister through photography but to also get those creative juices flowing for future projects. I am also helping Sarah out with her photography as I know she is a very talented kid and this will help challenge her and shoot more.

Yes, that is my LITTLE sister if you can believe it! Also just wanted to add that all my work will be done and posted by me and as will hers. Give us feedback, leave us a comment or share it will a friend. Hope you stick around each week to see what the new theme is and what we both create. It will be funny to see how similar we think. So excited to get this started and to share it will everyone.

Thanks, 

Shelby
