<p style="font-size:16px">02-22-2022!  Writing on the blog after <a href="https://mybigapplecity.com/2020/06/les-rues-vides-de-new-york-pendant-le-covid-19-2.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">nearly 2 year hiatus</a> feels like a long-time wish come true.  I haven&#8217;t forgotten about this platform.  In fact, I kept it safely in the back of my mind.  <strong>I miss writing!  I miss blogging!</strong>  Remember the days where we were not all stretched out to 8,342 different apps to keep up with the world?  Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I love the big picture of Social Media and use it several hours a day. And I also find excitement at learning more about YouTube and sharing more videos. But the blog; the O.G.! This is where it all started, right?</p>



<p style="font-size:16px"><em>22.02.2022! Écrire sur ce blog après <a href="https://mybigapplecity.com/2020/06/les-rues-vides-de-new-york-pendant-le-covid-19-2.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">presque 2 ans d&#8217;absence</a>, j&#8217;ai le sentiment de réaliser un long souhait inavoué. Je n&#8217;ai pas oublié cette plateforme. Je l&#8217;ai gardée sagement dans mes pensées.  <strong>Écrire me manque! Le blog me manque!</strong>  Vous souvenez-vous des jours pas si anciens, où nous n&#8217;étions pas sur 8 342 applications pour rester en contact avec le monde?  Je ne vais pas être de mauvaise foi, j&#8217;aime le concept d&#8217;origine des réseaux sociaux et j&#8217;y passe plusieurs heures par jour. Je trouve aussi beaucoup de plaisir ces derniers temps à apprendre YouTube et partager des vidéos.  Mais le blog, l&#8217;original, celui où tout a commencé, n&#8217;est-ce-pas?</em></p>

<p style="font-size:16px">I remember opening a blog in my bedroom at home, my Mémé&#8217;s house. (Anybody remembers The Queenette?).  I was thrilled to write down my thoughts and press &#8220;publish&#8221;. Little by little, I was found; although never revealing my identity.  <strong>Back then, you didn&#8217;t need to put your face on everything to get attention.</strong>  I joined a blogging platform called Hellocoton at the time and started to connect with so many kind individuals.</p>



<p style="font-size:16px">Through the years, my travels, my career changes and of course, my big move to New York City, the blog evolved.  Thanks to the blog, I dipped my toes into photography.  At first, I was mainly shooting architecture because when in NY, how not to be mesmerized by its iconic streets?  I also shared a bit of my NYC activities as a newly member of the club.  Being so centered around New York and with the interest of so many of you, readers, for the city; the blog was renamed <strong>MyBigAppleCity</strong>. A few months later, after having outgrown my pink point-of-shoot, I made my very first DSLR camera purchase.  I remember being so intimated by it that I read its manual in its totality before even taking my first photo. </p>

<p style="font-size:16px"><em>J&#8217;ai ouvert le blog depuis ma chambre chez mon arrière grand-mère, ma Mémé. (Qui se souvient de The Queenette?).  C&#8217;était un plaisir de pouvoir écrire mes pensées et cliquer sur &#8220;publier&#8221;.  Petit-à-petit, on m&#8217;a trouvé; même si au grand jamais n&#8217;aurais-je osé révéler mon identité. <strong>À l&#8217;époque, nous n&#8217;avions pas à mettre notre visage partout pour susciter l&#8217;attention.</strong>  J&#8217;ai rejoint la plateforme de blogs Hellocoton et j&#8217;ai commencé à échanger avec beaucoup de personnes, blogueurs sympathiques.</em></p>



<p style="font-size:16px"><em>Au fil des années, de mes voyages, mes changements de carrière et bien entendu, mon grand emménagement à New York City, le blog a évolué.  Grâce à lui, j&#8217;ai osé toucher à la photo.  En premier temps, je capturais principalement l&#8217;architecture new-yorkaise. Comment ne pas être émerveillé? Mais aussi, je partageais quelques activités d&#8217;une jeune expatriée.  New York est devenu le fil conducteur du blog et vous, lecteurs et lectrices, avait été aussi fascinés que moi. Je l&#8217;ai donc renommé: <strong>MyBigAppleCity</strong>.  Quelque mois plus tard, après avoir &#8220;grandi&#8221; l&#8217;utilisation de mon petit appareil photo rose, j&#8217;ai sauté le pas et acheté mon tout premier DSLR.  Je me souviens avoir été tellement intimidée par ce nouvel engin, que j&#8217;avais lu son manuel d&#8217;utilisation au complet avant même de prendre la première photo!</em></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="960" height="1200" src="https://mybigapplecity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/202103-JENNIE-PHOTOGRAPHY-NYC-SELF-PORTRAIT-3.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-4977" srcset="https://mybigapplecity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/202103-JENNIE-PHOTOGRAPHY-NYC-SELF-PORTRAIT-3.jpg 960w, https://mybigapplecity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/202103-JENNIE-PHOTOGRAPHY-NYC-SELF-PORTRAIT-3-240x300.jpg 240w, https://mybigapplecity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/202103-JENNIE-PHOTOGRAPHY-NYC-SELF-PORTRAIT-3-768x960.jpg 768w, https://mybigapplecity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/202103-JENNIE-PHOTOGRAPHY-NYC-SELF-PORTRAIT-3-940x1175.jpg 940w" sizes="(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px" /></figure>



<p style="font-size:16px">Little did I know, I would stumble into Fashion Week a few months later, back then hosted at the Lincoln Center.  Or maybe it was fate?  <strong>Street style photography</strong> was still very much a new concept, far from the present circus.  For the first time, I started photographing people, particularly their looks and posting the photos on Tumblr. No IG back then! </p>



<p style="font-size:16px">It is pretty fascinating to me that I succeeded in <a href="http://jenniephotographynyc.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">becoming a photographer</a>, nonetheless in the city of my dreams.  <strong>You never know where a passion can lead to if you keep dedicating time and effort to it.</strong></p>



<p style="font-size:16px">If the last 2 years have taught me anything is that <strong>Time isn&#8217;t something you can take for granted</strong>.  02-22-22. Today is pretty special. Today, I sat down to write on this blog!</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>



<p style="font-size:16px"><em>Tout à fait par hasard ou peut-être c&#8217;était le destin qui m&#8217;a amené au Lincoln Center pendant la New York Fashion Week.  <strong>Le Streetstyle</strong> était encore un nouveau concept, loin du cirque d&#8217;aujourd&#8217;hui. Pour la toute première fois, j&#8217;ai photographié des personnes, en particulier leur look et partagé ces photos sur un Tumblr à l&#8217;époque.  Pas d&#8217;Instagram en ce temps-là!</em></p>



<p style="font-size:16px"><em>Cela me fascine toujours autant que j&#8217;ai réussi à <a href="http://jenniephotographynyc.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">devenir photographe</a>, d&#8217;autant plus dans la ville que je n&#8217;osais trop rêver.  <strong>On ne sait jamais où une passion peut nous guider si on lui dédie du temps et beaucoup d&#8217;effort.</strong></em></p>



<p style="font-size:16px"><em>Si les 2 dernières années m&#8217;ont appris quelque chose; c&#8217;est que le <strong>Temps ne peut pas être tenu pour acquis. 22.02.22.  Aujourd&#8217;hui est une journée spéciale. Aujourd&#8217;hui, j&#8217;ai ouvert cette page et écrit sur ce blog!</strong></em></p>
