Super excited to tell you what the niche is

Published on by ☆ Emma Santorini ☆2 Comments

I saw a question that made me think really hard.. Why you chose your blogging niche? well to be honest, I have been blogging for many years, different blogs, different names etc and  I have been all over. Blog chaos, no red thread to follow etc. Which I might struggle with on this blog as well (atleast I struggle with my bad grammar – I’m sorry!) but why did I really picked my niche?

(cartoon filter on)

well to be honest lifestyle suits me best because I wanna have a place where I can share my experience, news (good and bad) and have just a place to write on. Lifestyle for me is huge in the category but the best part you do not need one special niche. I love photography but I also love beauty and skincare and having lifestyle as a niche I will be able to post that instead of just focusing on ONE TOPIC. Now I will not have many topics in this blog. Maybe 4 or 5. lifestyle ~ (and daily life) photography, parenting (autism), beauty/skincare, mental health and inspirational posts.

For me important subjects are important to share  such as raising awareness about mental health, bullying and autism . How to help, work and go through it. In today’s society it’s (at least where I live) a taboo to talk about these things and I have been through shit tons of things so I know a lot.

Photography ~ share photographs I’ve taken, share info and try keep my spirit up for photography (as you might have notice I always have at lease one photo on each post. taken by me or borrowed) . Share for my adventures, fun moments etc.

Parenting ~ As you know, I’m a mother to a boy named E who has a severe case of Autism. Autism level 3 and is non verbal. // I will share his progress, development and steps forward to the future. Not to seek attention or what so ever but to just remember the moments.

Beauty / Skincare ~ my Instagram has a lot of posts of beauty & skincare but in here I will just include some looks when I wear, information etc. Updates on beauty / skincare part will be on instagram, just like some lifestyle (will update LS on here)

Inspirational posts ~ Everyone need to motivation and inspiration in their life and iam here to share both quotes etc I have written myself and those I found online.

so now you all know why I picked my blogging niche(sorta know. it’s hard to explain). What is your blog niche?

Stand out in public with statements and photography related

Where I live you can’t stand out .. you will get tons of looks, talks behind your back. bullying etc. And if you are a big person who go outside the standard norms. Oohhh guys!

I’m a plus size. have always been. my entire life. due to a sickness (no I haven’t eaten myself this big) and I have a special unique look. I’m the only one who’s female to have this unique look in the town where I live. That’s pretty cool though but I get tons of negative looks etc.

So lately I have taken my style one step further. No iam not mean or negative in real life. This is just a statement to people can back off and leave me alone. Which has actually worked a bit. Sure I get looks, stares etc but I have learned to ignore it as much as I can. Hard work.

Today I have been in town (with this fabulous shirt on) to have a meeting. which went good and fun. Not a serious meeting but important.

what else is.. oooh while waiting on the bus to go to the town I was thinking alot.. about photography. As I have written before I miss it. Go out in nature, alone, just quiet time and focus. But I haven’t used my Canon camera for years and my phone (S23 Ultra) has a pretty good camera.. but.. my question is..does it count as photography when you don’t use a system camera? Are using a smartphone the “same” as photographers?

my dream when I was younger were to become a professional photographer and work for national geographic magazine. Get my pictures published in the magazines etc.. but that dream died pretty fast when I read the the criteria(is that the right word?) to become a photographer for them. But I miss photography . Though I have never been interested in taking portraits and pictures of people, weddings etc (I have tried. Wasn’t my thing) but I love taking pictures, edit and make beautiful photos of details and landscape.

is there a photographer out there who might can answer my question?
