And Then….there was a new website

by casscomerford • September 15th, 2009 • posted in Design

I’ve always been curious.  I’m inquisitive by nature and at times this got me into trouble – being ‘nosey’, christmas present snooping, breaking extensive pieces of flash because ‘I just wanted to see how it worked’.  But being curious also pushes me to the tops of hills, to the end of books and has brought some of the best memories into my life.

One night in college Amanda and I were out – I forget what we were doing – probably going to Wegmans and we saw lights in the sky – like search spotlights straight out of US Marshalls or Hollywood.  We needed to find the source of these lights.  So we went on a hunt and in that hunt we had the best time – we actually saw a sign that said “Speed Hump” which had us in a fit of giggles and when we finally did find the source of the spotlights there were paper bag lanterns leading us there.  Being curious is so worth it.

The website is new and I couldn’t be more excited about it.  It continues and solidifies my venture into photography and I’m equal parts scared and thrilled.  The blog has a tagline of “and then ________”.  Because what happens after And Then is what is truly interesting to me.  For example…

I walked into a bar AND THEN _____________.

I was stuck in a snow storm AND THEN ______________.

I got laid off from my job AND THEN _______________.

First off, this happened AND THEN ___________.

The And Then in life is what gets me.  The getting to and from And Then.  And Then is a family joke on some levels because stories with a lot of And Thens are hilarious – I prefer just one or two.  I guess thats why I love reading blogs – it’s all about your And Then.

For me And Then is all about getting to the good part.  I hope you find some of that here.  Now tell me what you think by using this new comment form.
