Moving forward, I’m going to be extremely selective about who I book with. By now, most people know I’m not in this for popularity or the money. Photography has always been an outlet for me. It keeps me busy, gives me something to look forward to, and allows me to create something that makes other people happy while also bringing me happiness.If you’ve followed my page for a while, you’ve probably noticed I’m much more active during the winter months. That’s because winter is personally the hardest season for me, and staying busy helps me through it. Because of that, this will always be a hobby not my livelihood. And no hobby is worth risking everything else I’ve worked so hard to build. Over the last month alone, I’ve had well over 15 inquiries that all ended the same way. As soon as the conversation turned into requests for my email address, phone number, verification codes, confirmation links, or anything similar, I politely ended the conversation and encouraged them to find another photographer. So moving forward, I will only be responding to photography inquiries if I know who referred you or I can trace you back to an ISO post where I was tagged. If I can’t verify where you came from, I simply won’t be responding. I work a full-time career (and then some), and I spend most weekends pouring my heart into this hobby. Respectfully, I don’t have the time or energy to play detective or vet every social media profile to determine whether an inquiry is genuine. Thank you to everyone who has supported me, trusted me, referred me, and made this hobby so rewarding. I appreciate you more than you know.
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. I love yall 🤍
