A few months back I read this quote by Steve Jobs and it has stuck with me since: “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.”
I think I’m finding it, and it’s exciting. I know I am on the right path, because when I was finished working with the image below, I felt giddy as a school girl. Couldn’t hold it in, couldn’t wait to share it with the world. Couldn’t wait for Colleen to see how beautiful she is! I loved every second of it. I think I’m onto something. Now I just have to be patient while I continue to find it and not worry. If you know me well, this will likely be the biggest challenge of all, but if it means I get to make things like this every day in the future, I’m convinced I will overcome it. None of it seems to matter when I have a camera in my hand. Dramatic? Maybe. True? Absolutely.
All that being said I would LOVE to take your photo. Don’t be shy. To be honest, I’m probably too shy to ask YOU (working on that too, personal growth here we go!).
Here are some other photos from the past month that have also given me similar giddy-ness and excitement. I hope that one day you (whoever you are reading this) can inspire me just the same and get a photo out of it that makes YOU feel good. It doesn’t take a lot, just your awesome self and my lens.
