LETTER FROM THE EDITOR: Love Thy Self.

I love photos, and rightly so. You wouldn’t be reading and perusing our work if we, me and my team, weren’t obsessed with what we do. That obsession, passion, is pervasive everywhere. So much that it often comes out in the first snap of a new session or random moment with you, me, a camera, and decent light. And from there it only gets better. The look of surprise when that first image lands is Russell Stover sugary gold for us. 

So in the spirit of Valentines and still reeling off a New Year, we thought we’d promote, you guessed it, Love, specifically Loving Thy Self. Part of what we at KARJAKA promote and capture is a balance of inner and outer beauty. As with most things in life, balance is essential. For the writers of our February edition, they dig into both side of that timeless quest for 50/50. So sit back, grab a cup, find something sweet and enjoy.
