This project started with a phone call with a friend. He had a new iPhone and was motivated to use the camera more, but didn’t really know what for. Around the same time, I had started listening to photography podcasts and heard about the idea of a 365-day project. Since I was also getting more into photography myself, I suggested we start such a project together.
We would send our daily photos via WhatsApp, and he came up with the idea to create a photo book for the year afterwards for each other. Soon, another friend joined, and since then the journey has continued for all three of us.
Originally, I hadn’t planned on a black-and-white project, but on day one, I decided to shoot only in black-and-white. Sometimes it makes finding a motif more challenging, but overall, I like having a consistent look in my “photo diary”.
