Bestie & flowers

Hello ! Took another break 🤪

I was actually seriously sick for basically two months straight, it was insane. My immune system completely gave up on me, and I caught all kinds of silly viruses, and the recovery process was so long… I just couldn’t do much else.

Finally feeling some better, the weather in Paris is so sh*tty though, I’m having a hard time. It’s definitely not helping with my rheumatoid arthritis symptoms… I wish we’d just move to the South of France 🙏 one day maybe !

In the meantime, I was visited by my best friend Barbara, who came all the way from Switzerland 🤗 we had an amazing time together, I miss her so much, always. Long distance relationships are hard, but when it’s true love, it’s lasting no matter what. Although, you do have to nurture it.

Beautiful medieval town

April 8, 2024April 5, 2024 ~ Madison Kennedy

Here you go, second part of my Provins photos !

This time around, I walked a bit further into the city part and explored to see all the different type of houses there are, and focus on the medieval architecture. It was so sunny and hot, but still manageable for pictures. I don’t usually like when the sun is this direct, because the colors are too harsh when you shoot, but it ended up not being that bad post-editing.

The town is really lovely, unfortunately I didn’t make it to the castle. It was too far for my condition. I had to pace myself a couple of times to be able to do this outing without hurting myself too much in the process. That’s just how it is now, and I’m trying to adjust my life around it. But hey, I still get to go out sometimes and enjoy my hobbies !

Sunsets state of mind

April 5, 2024April 4, 2024 ~ Madison Kennedy

I love sunsets because they remind of LA ☀️

California definitely has the best views, whether it’s a forest, or a sunset, or beaches… everything’s grand and beautiful. I always miss being there, because in the back of my mind, I can never truly forget those feelings. Sure enough when I’m looking at the sky, and it’s this pretty, I’m transported back there inevitably.

But okay, France is also gorgeous. I mean if I had to choose, I would still pick where I’m at right now. It just brings me so much comfort, and a feeling of being safe… which you can’t really have in the US, unless you’re like well-off. I would love to move to the South of France in the near future though, because sea, salt and sun anyone ? duh.

Paris je t’aime, moi non plus

April 3, 2024April 4, 2024 ~ Madison Kennedy

Wow ! I have been looking for the last 2023 photos to share on my blog 😅

I went through my camera roll, and this week’s all that is left… I don’t have any *new* content for next week basically. Thankfully, I do have a couple trips that I never edited, or shared, so I guess you’ll be getting that until I’m able to plan photoshoots : which was part of my 2024 goal.

I want to be more thoughtful with my photography projects, and come up with ideas instead of just going out and shooting whatever. I don’t know how well I can manage that, because it’ll be my first time attempting to be like, professional. I’m laughing at myself, because these past two years have been so crazy with my autoimmune diseases, and instead of being you know, more careful, I’m just going for it. Being sick has definitely made me more fierce.

Obsessed with sunsets

April 1, 2024April 4, 2024 ~ Madison Kennedy

I have so many pictures of the sky, it’s become an obsession ✨

Especially from the last two years, because I’ve been stuck so often at home from being sick. Basically my main outlet was shooting from my balcony, and like I said in previous posts, I have a 180 gorgeous view.

What’s the most amazing thing is that every day it is different, Mother Nature never disappoints ! She knows how to create the most spectacular beauty. I can’t say it enough, how I love watching sunsets until dusk, with ever changing clouds and colors, it’s a true marvel.
