Nicole Kenney

This is website of photographer (and used to be amazing illustrator) Nicole Kenney.

Her website Diary 29 is a record of everyday for the last year of her 20's. It is such an interesting insight and has filled many minutes of my days catching up. It is very addictive so be warned -it will be something you'll grow not to live without.

Another project that Nicole is working on with fellow photographer Ks Rives is Before I Die I Want To, which is another completely intriguing compilation of work. It is based around Polaroids of people from all over the world, from places like hospices to friends and family, who have their Polaroid taken while
discussing the things they want to do before they die, and then writing it on the Polaroid afterwards.

There is something so tangible about the method and the personality that resonates from each person revealing their deepest desires. It is a reminder to the everyday that life is short but it is to be positively embraced.

I'd say if you get a minute, give this a good look- (and while your there check out some of Nicole's older illustrations...very good!)
