(original photograph taken by me at Griffith Observatory) Photography is one of the elements where stories can be told, and as one chapter slowly closes, another is soon to open.  One of the biggest stories I want to capture, via digital photography, is the chapter of my decision to stop smoking.  It is a large task that I am about to tackle, but it all began as a promise, a promise to myself and the man that I love.  His role in this promise is just one of incentive, so why not add the bonus, but the grand prize belongs to me.  In relation to photography, I will be capturing the essence of what it is like to withdraw and face the vice of smoking.  I am hoping to capture a variety of expressions and moments of deep-thought, and the final product will be a mix of mediums, with photography being the exclusive element.  This will also be my first serious self-portrait project, so I am excited and I can’t wait until it is all complete. In the spirit of this project, I will allow the photo reply, and please post your favorite smoking photographs, if you would like.

(photo links to my personal photography portfolio) This is me, Nika LeFemme.  In the process of creativity, I have decided to delete my many blogs and focus on solely this very one, a new fresh step into the adventures of a newfound self.  Let me tell you a little about myself…   I am a 27-year old photographer, amateur filmmaker, and student.  My favorite style of photography is Black & White, and I love working with B/W digital, but I am not afraid of color, I drip myself in paint from time to time.  I have many creative plans, and have most recently been documenting all of my ideas, thoughts, random word expressions, and doodles in journals, which has been the greatest thing I could have done, for a sane mind, and I sometimes have a tendency to forget many things in the process of thinking of new things.  I have a wonderful support system; although, I am not rich, my family and friends have been so amazing and believe in anything I jump into.  At this point in my life, I am extremely focused on a more narrow range of hobbies and tackles, with broad creative expansion, but I had taken on to much, and couldn’t keep up.  Now I’m ready to dive back in, and invite you all to dive in with me.   So, LET’S DIVE IN…
