2024: The Dawn of R’s Saturn Return This year taught me that progress isn’t linear, but hard work never betrays you. How many times have I thought, “This is everything I’ve ever wanted?” And realized I’m not just living it, I’m making it my reality. 2024 is the year I chose myself. The year I shed old skins, old stories that no longer served me. I learned that I can be kind, but unapologetically so. I can be graceful, but still put myself first. I can protect my peace while building my world. It’s the year my circle got smaller, but my sense of peace, clarity, and growth grew deeper. Behind the scenes? Nonstop travel, sleepless nights, and moments of mental breaks. But I learned to honor my limits, practice self-love, and let grace guide me. Growth isn’t about pushing until you break—it’s about listening to your body and soul. This is the year I reclaimed my narrative and gave my younger self wings of courage to dream bigger. I like to think of all my wins as a warm, reassuring hug to the younger version of me. Every step I’ve taken, every victory, feels like a promise kept to him—the boy who dreamed big, who wanted so much but didn’t know how to make it real. Now, I strive to be everything he needed, nurturing that child inside of me with the love, patience, and care he never knew he could have. Between the whirlwind of travel, the magic of photo shoots, and the sparkle of fashion moments, I remind myself: *take it all in.* Embrace it. Own it. With gratitude, with kindness, with a deep well of artistic revelations, I guide myself into my Saturn return, into the next chapter of my journey. 2025, I’m calling you in: endless artistic flow, more travel, more moments to shape me. And my resolution for the new year? To carry all of this—and so much more—forward. But more than anything: to always find my way home, to keep nurturing that inner child, and never forget what it feels like to be the dreamer. #ThePhotographicSense
