Things I don’t admit as a photographer… 📸✨
I’ve only been doing photography for a little over a year, and I’m completely self-taught.
Sometimes I feel stuck. Sometimes I have no idea what I’m doing or what I should try next. I struggle with lighting, I’m constantly changing my edits, and sometimes I look back at a gallery and wish I would’ve done things differently.
I’m also SO hard on myself. There are days when I question my work, compare where I am to where I think I should be, and even wonder if I should keep going.
But then I remind myself that this is what learning looks like.
I’m still finding my style. I’m still learning my camera. I’m still figuring out lighting and editing. And I’m still growing with every single session.
I think sometimes we only share the photos we’re proud of and not everything that happens behind the scenes to get there. I’m definitely not perfect, and I still have SO much to learn.
So thank you to every single person who continues to trust me with your photos and your memories. Your support means more to me than you probably realize. Every time you book with me, share my work, recommend me, or come back for another session, it reminds me why I started.
A little over a year in, still learning, still growing, still figuring it out and I can’t wait to see where I am a year from now. 🤍
