2011, the year I stopped trying? The year I gave up? Maybe it was the year I got real.

Would I like to make a living from photography? Yes.
Is it possible? No.

Well, it’s possible to make a living from anything but I don’t want to eat noodles and put my kids in the shitty San Francisco public school system so there’s where that whole idea falls flat. Fast.

So, I sold some equipment and largely put down my camera, only shooting photo’s of my family (plus a few of my friend Adam Del Rio and one epic day of hiking with Bobby). We added one child this year, lost our dog and tried our best to keep the oldest one as normal as can be.

In amongst the chaos and rhetoric on Twitter I took these photos.
