day in and day out...

day in and day out...

Life can be pretty boring if you do the same thing day in and day out. N'est ce pas?

The fact that I am continually working artistically makes my life better, and in turn keeps both my creativity and ideas flowing. I love how my work is diverse, never quite the same. It varies from commercial to weddings, then to so called "editorial" and back to weddings and so on...I have a tendency to take more jobs that I can handle. Would rather be busy than see my ideas and energy go down the drain. It's about being active with your work. All the jobs I take are all rewarding. You can gather so much insight, knowledge and experiences from various shoots. It keeps you going forward, moving towards higher plans and goals. It strengthens your vision.

It certainly will open up options for you if you are willing to expand and explore.

This past winter, I had so much clarity about why I love being a photographer and the things I needed to do to keep it that way. As soon as I made the decision to go after the things that makes me happy as a photographer, the kind of work I wanted to do more of, started knocking on my door. It goes to show! You create opportunities for yourself when expanding your work.

As a photographer, if it hadn't been for my willingness to try new things, I would have ended up being stuck in a routine of a "day in and day out" scenario.

With that said, remember to try to have fun once in awhile :-)
With or without a camera.

Speaking of fun...
