What was REALLY nice was that one of the photographers @taylorohryn from the Maize Collective event two years ago reached out on Instagram to tell me how much she appreciated the piece that I wrote about her and the event as a whole. ( http://bit.ly/9thingsphotographyblog ) That was EXTREMELY rewarding. Itâs NOT that we do it FOR this result, but itâs certainly thrilling when it happensâŚ.. Even when itâs over two years later. đđž âDEFINITELY, sweet! đ
