7: Where Are We All Going

So. Where am I going I ask. Where will I be in the next year or two. Well. I'd like to hope I have an agent or at least I'd like to think I will be earning enough money so survive, not be a slave to the 9 until 5 and having the ability to do the projects or take the images I want to take, otherwise it's all pointless. Time will tell.

I'll update with the highs and the lows and the what the hell am I doings.

I forgot to mention, my partner is 7 months pregnant and I have no money, so the question I ask myself after just a few months of doing this is, what the hell am I doing.

Luckily my partner is an amazing woman. Behind (hopefully) every great man, is a great woman, and she is certainly that. She listens to me whine and complain but I keep the self doubt and fear to myself and just carry on. Whether I believe in myself of not, which I must, I carry on and she is behind me every step of the way with 100% support. So I thank her for that.

Right now I tell you this. Every moment is a quest for the next shot, a step in the right direction, something that has to be done and hopefully if you want something bad enough you will work hard enough to get it and I'm working pretty hard right now to get it. I don't want fame, I don't want fortune, well, maybe just a little. I want my images and work to speak for themselves.

Without a strong portfolio, you have nothing. So that is the 1st step before any others can be taken.

I'd like to keep this blog informative. More about the process than another self induldent set of words. So I'll try and include a behind the scenes look at how things happened, in hope that it reaches at least one person. I'll also be posting inspiring artists, helpful links and whatever pops into my head at the time.

So. I will leave you for now with one last piece of information before my next update /shoot.
