So today instead of following my usual ritual of going to 15 sites of photographers I admire I went to 5 and then started working on a Business Plan. I love photography. Is wedding photography what I want to do? I love the emotion, experience, pure joy that comes from the day. But I want the control of being artistic as well, and weddings don't allow for time to do that to the fullest potential I want. Is that a trade-off I want. Either way I will see where this road leads me, I have to. I probably don't have enough experience to know what I am talking about BUT I won't find out until I try. So in the next month or so there will be some change happening on this site: a new website, rates, calenders...you know legitimate business things :) to actual start trying what I have been dreamign about. Exciting, yes...but nerve racking as well, I feel like I can do this... I feel like it will be a good thing... but I'm such a perfectionist I want it to be just right. The images, the client experience, the albums, the website, the work-life balance. I have to take it one step at a time so this morning I start with my Plan of Action 2008.
This picture reminds me of how I am feeling right at this moment...it's me hiking in Peru during our honeymoon. It had rained off and on during the hike that day and we were approaching our campsite for the night. And the clouds were clearing but it looked really ominous, but beautiful. That's how my stomach feels before I start do something I'm not completely sure or in control of. Kinda churning...almost about to clear, but I need to take the next steps before the churning nervousness moves out and is replaced by excitement.
