Yesterday, as I was sitting here at our kitchen table playing on working on my resume, tweeting, and watching Jasmine Stars Creativelive Course with Chase Jarvis, I start to think about my life and what I genuinely want to do with it. As I'm currently in the middle of making a HUGE life change. I find myself consistently thinking about what I'm doing with my life. I know I want to be a photographer. I know I want to have a career where I can live the lifestyle that I want to live. I'm just caught in a stand still. A big thing that I got out of while watching Creativelive is I want to starting doing more with my photography business. I need to stop being scared and start putting myself out there more. I'll admit I do not always know what I'm doing 100% of the time, but I can guarantee that I'll give you the best. Okay so here it is Internet, as my witness, I'm going to start shooting more in manual, attend a workshop, go to a conference/seminar, learn more about techniques and the business side of photography, network with photographers more, blog more often, & last but not least take more risk!
Side note...
Yesterday, when I was watching Creativelive, I noticed that Jasmine's belt matched her boots. So I decided to take a risk (small, but I did it). I asked "@jasminestar does your belt match your boots?!?! #cjlive" All I have to say is she stopped Chase in the middle of their conversation and said hold on can I answer this question. Then she goes "Allison Keel (yes Jasmine Star said my name) (I'm a geek and screamed when she did this too) YES, my belt does match my boots!" I totally freaked out! That right there made my day!
