Yesterday's post was about using this mini album to capture your monthly activities. Today i would like to explore the idea of using this mini album for other projects like a goal album, a one little word album, or a me album.
The new year always seems to be a time of reflection and resolutions. This mini is a great way to visualize those goals into action. Let's say my goal is health/weight oriented. Documenting those triumphs and struggles helps me to see where i am in my progress and where i need to adjust. It also keeps me accountable. I could take pictures of my shoes, my gym bag, my locker, etc. I could even go the really personal route and take pictures of me & my progress. Maybe even a specific body part that i want to work on.
One little word is a similar process to the goal album but can really take on a different plan of action & meaning in your life. Again documenting your progress helps you visualize your journey throughout the year. This year i have decided my word is UNLOCK. it has that rich meaning behind it and i can just feel myself unlocking all kinds of potential, feelings, and expectations in my life. Why not capture my word through cool lock photos? I am a bit obsessed with doors anyway.
Lastly this album could be used solely as a "Me" album. A place to record whatever your thoughts & feelings might be that month along with self-portraits taken throughout the year. By breaking it down into a month to month diary, a year long project seems more doable. I could take self portraits along the way. It could be all face shots, just a certain part of me each time (I do tend to take a lot of feet shots), or i could change it up a bit each time trying to grow taking self portraits.
