All New, All Different Blog

Welcome to the new blog!

After giving it much thought I decided to redesign the blog from the ground up. Now there’s more space for larger images and text, making the content much more readable and easier to sift through. I love how images are presented, large and in charge on bigger monitors or even on mobile. It makes me want to share more than before.

I’m also back to the usual blog schedule of posting once every Friday. Of course, I’ll be occassionally posting on off days just for fun or if I have a random thing I wish to share.

A goal I’ve set for myself is to have about 100 posts on the blog within a year. I’m committed to writing on a consistent basis so this goal will help keep me on track.

As outlined in this post, the direction of the blog will still focus predominantly on my work, career news, projects I’m working on, and general things that interest me. Think of the blog as more of a glimpse into my thoughts and life as an artist than your typical photography blog.

Being a person of numerous interests, I’m in the midst of rebranding myself as an artist. Before I was “just” a photographer, but I find the moniker a bit limiting now. You’ll notice it’s not “Jamiya Wilson Photography” but “Jamiya Wilson Studio”. ” Studio” in the name is akin to an umbrella that houses all of my creative endeavors. If I write a book, direct a film, etc. simply being “Jamiya Wilson Photography” wouldn’t suffice.

Let’s just say I’m “mainly” or “mostly” a photographer. Marketing says I should say “Multifaceted artist” but that just sounds egotistic.

Yeah, I’ll talk about cameras here and there, but this isn’t the place for gear reviews. There are plenty of sites that serve that purpose and will do a much better job than I ever could. We have enough of that already. Don’t you want something different?

So if you like my work or just want to keep up with what I’ve been up to, this is the place for you.

Hope you enjoy!
