I&#8217;m pretty good at this already, in some ways, but given photography&#8217;s elevated status for me next year, I&#8217;m going to have to apply my work ethic to planning shots and carving out time for this amongst my other responsibilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some ways I&#8217;ve increased my capacity already:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I cleaned out a bookshelf and it&#8217;s dedicated to my gear, so now it&#8217;s all in one spot<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I inventoried most of the gear that I have, and I&#8217;m in process of organizing my pdfs, files, and manuals, so that they&#8217;re also in easy reach<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I wake up before sunrise, and that has helped me in two ways\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I get time to work out, or do dishes, or respond to emails and frees up another part of the day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I get some golden hour and sun rise shots and that helps with getting the day started<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I&#8217;m rounding into shape here, but I know that time is going to be of the essence, so I need to put my thinking cap on so I can maximize the amount of time I give myself to this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wrote a test page for this post last week, and forgot to come back to it.
