A recent trip to the Lakes started with good weather but after a day descended into grey and rainy. The Lakes are so beautiful though, it's a pleasure just being there, and a place that I hold dear to my heart.
In this video I'm out improving and practicing photography. Why? Because I enjoy it of course, but also because I have made a life-changing decision...
I have just left my day job in the corporate world to pursue a career as a professional photographer - An ambitious goal? Definitely!
"You're crazy!" I can hear you say... but I have a bit of a plan, and I am now in the stages of building up that plan, and working out how to execute it. And sometimes you have to be a little bit crazy to realise a dream right?
I am posting this video to share my aims and hold myself to account so I can get motivated and complete the steps, projects and tasks needed for my journey.
It's a big journey, and I need all the support and advice I can get, and it is my intention to starting posting regular videos that chart my journey from corporate 9-5 to professional photographer! Including videos that follow me as I practice my photography and learn about processing and printing my work, but also the setting up and working on the business side of things.
If you like this, and want to see more - learning as I learn, or advising me along the way - then encourage me to make more, by giving the video a like. Subscribe so you can see when I post more, and comment with any tips, advice or requests for future content... or just to wish me luck!
Cheers!
