A few years ago, I started taking self portraits on my birthday—as many self portraits as my age that day. This Thursday I took 52 self portraits on the occasion of my birthday.
A couple notes : That morning I was scheduled to be in Salt Lake for a shoot with Utah Business Magazine. So the first pictures are me packing up, making my way to the shoot, and some of the people I photographed for that shoot show up in these pictures. Later in the afternoon my family met me in Salt Lake and we spent the night in a hotel. You’ll also see I am holding my cell phone in a lot of them because I’m addicted to my phone. Just kidding, it’s because I’m using an app on the phone to trip the shutter on my camera. Just kidding about the just kidding. I am addicted to my phone, but that’s not why it’s in these pictures.
As always, who knows what next year brings and if I’ll do it again, but I’m glad I had the chance to do it this time around.
