One of my year-end routines is to read back through my blog archives for the year. I love how it reminds me of so much that I have forgotten – the little things that have made the year so special (both the hard, painful ones and the joyous ones). Here are a few of the joyous things I’ve enjoyed in 2009…

  • Foys gig in Belfast in Jan- “never let the spirit die”
  • Being involved in CONSP!RE mag
  • Working with Christian Aid’s photography unit, & having some of my images published in their magazine
  • Geek Summit
  • Ireland v Scotland 6 Nations match at Murrayfield
  • Photographing The Rescue
  • Celebrating the gap year – Goodbye Congo
  • Photographing at FUEL09
  • Getting inked
  • Weddings & hen parties
  • A weekend in Oxford with Caroline
  • Seeing Scribble at the Edinburgh Festival
  • Greenbelt 09
  • Roadtrip to Skye with uni friends
  • Inspiring conversations with friends new & old at Story & Cultivate
  • Hanging out with Julie & Daley in LA
  • A night out in Huntington Beach with my cousins
  • San Francisco
  • My parents 25th wedding anniversary

Every year it just keeps getting better. I’m excited for the new things 2010 will bring. How was your 2009?
