You know that moment we’re you have to have a real confidence check? Well this was that moment.
This picture was taken in 2018 in Boston right before my first wedding. A few months prior, after over 10 years of loving and naturally being drawn to photography, I had to sit down and ask myself are you all in? Are you ready to do the work?
Being a perfectionist I had my doubts. Not because I was not capable of giving photography all I had, but because from day one I wanted to be the best and had to accept that there would be a learning process that would take time.
But once I decided to show up!!!! Once I decide to give it my all!!! I was exhilarated. Every shoot brought me feelings of humble service and over joyed gratification,confirming that photography was my gift to share with the world.
So fast forward to this weekend in 2018, I had the opportunity to photographed my first wedding!! My first wedding!!!
It was such an amazing opportunity to capture the joy and light that filled the room. It was better than anything I could have expected and the icing on the cake was the joy I saw on the couples faces and the twinkle in their eyes as the relived the moment through the delivered images.
From that day on , wether it be a wedding or event, couple or family, branding shoot or individual portrait session, I challenged myself to continuously raise my bar, provide something special to my clients, and provide an experience when they walk in front of my lense.
Do I think I made the right decision in 2018 to purse photography? The answer is a resounding yes!!! Being able to capture fleeting moments and preserve them in an image is amazing and I take that with the utmost honor to be able to provide that to my clients.
I’m glad I choose to take the leap and do the work to be a photographer of choice for so many!
To Nkechi of 2018 who was in deep reflection, you got this, keep pushing and remember you were right to just start!!
