Thank you, thank you, thank you.. I was looking around the internet, to see what Kind of Photographers there are in my area, and I came across the Destin Photographer. That led me to your blog.
I have been in love with photography since I was a little girl, my dad gave me a poloroid instant camera when I was 9.
It was love at first shutter snap. I have always taken pictures of family and friends with people telling me how wonderful they were and how I should do “that” for a living.
Recently I have made the choice to follow my heart and chase my dream. I was getting doubtful if this is really a good idea. Quit my job in a resession?!! Am I crazy?
Then I read what you wrote ” I have not been held back by my lack of degrees, my ethnicity, my sex, my race, nothing. The only force that has ever been in the way of my successes and had any bearing on my abilities to grow – were my own fears. Thank God, I have had dozens of great people in my life over the years that have convinced me to silence this voice of self doubt in my head and truly believe that the worst that could happen, is failing at something and being no better off than I was in the first place.”
I am not going to let my own fears hold me back.
Well said.
Thank you Patti
