I procrastinated posting this for a few reasons, 1) because I’m terrified and 2) I simply didn’t have an image to post along side these already written words. Turns out, I can’t force my creativity lol. But, I thought of this concept last night and it lit that fire that burned deep down, so much so, I couldn’t sleep. So….*deep breath* here we go…
I’ll be honest, I was 100% ready to throw in the towel at the end of 2022. I had succumbed to the idea of closing my business accounts and accepted just looking back on this career with fond memories and a sense of pride. I was stuck, uninspired, tired, anxious and uncertain. I recognized I was in a substantial autistic burnout and just assumed the faint, far off light I could see at the end of the tunnel was an entirely new career path. But now that I have reached it, and that light has touched my face, I’ve realized that of course it wasn’t. It never will be.
Photography has been a part of me since I was 4 and it can’t just turn off. It just morphed (somewhat back) into what I had already wanted to photograph betore had any skill or experience. Other artists. Musicians, actors, creatives. I’m inspired by people, by witnessing how their art connects with others whether that is on a film set, in front of a crowd of thousands or simply a one on one. How it transcend and weaves its way into our own every day stories. I want to tell those stories. So yes, I’m happily back but in a different capacity. My work will remain the same, just different subjects. I’d like to thank those that are helping me make this transition by being so inspiring and encouraging. But most of all, my clients. I wouldn’t have made it this far without your love and support
Much love
