Sometimes I wonder, growing up in the competitive environment is it good for me or not..My future job and my dreams sometimes seems so close. Sometimes its like it’s a million light years away for me. I cant help myself to think about this, a production house apprentice earns as much as a part time worker in any fast food or franchise chain and sometimes, it is even lesser. I need to start from the beginning but a lovely kick start from one apprenticeship might take me from here to there. It is possible to fly high. I hope I can make it but looking at people’s work out there, it make me seems I’m just a tiny fraction in this creative and demanding field. Photography is not just click of a shutter, it is much more than that.
The lighting, the sets, the make up, the money , the business, the advertising, the layouts, the models, the public, the stress, the demands, the standard; Everything is there. People judge you for everything. One big mistake is a screw up. I saw few reality show on this field and WHAPM ! All my self esteem is gone. Professionals are giving like 20 frames on each photoshoot? You need to have at least 5 PERFECT Frames. Not good but perfect. The pros do it like it is piece of cake but for a beginner dreaming to head on to Milan. Its so far off. People might not understand what I am doing now but one day I wanna prove to people around me that Switching my dream will pay off. I will not be a billionaire with this future dieting models with fancy makeups. Fashion photography. That is where I kick off. There is where I am going. Portraits and fashion photography will be what I am.
