Standing Still Moving Forward

Thu Sep 17, 2009, 8:53 AM
Okay so lately I've been really feeling that I need to do something to continue to grow as an artist and photographer. I literally dream about taking better pictures, I know a bit strange, but it's so deeply rooted in me that even in my sleep I strive to perfect the art that is photography.

So far everything I've learned has pretty much come from, google, brief conversations, and practical experience. But that can only take me so far, the more I look at other photographers work the more I want to learn "how to do this or that". Living were I live there aren't many options available for me... and so I feel as though I am pushing on with a huge road block infront of me.

It's not enough that the people who hire me are happy, I mean I am happy that they are happy, overall that is great, but I want to be a better photographer, I want to take better photo's I want to learn more about lighting, I want to push myself creatively, and I want to provide the best possible photographs for people.

If anyone has any idea's or you are willing to offer advice I would much appreciate it.

I am a stay at home mom, and I love to do anything that allows me to be creative. I write songs, and play guitar, I bake, take photo's, sew, crochet, and have attempted to Paint, & Sculpt. I love Black And White Photo's because I feel like it strips away any distraction so you can focus on the expressions and what is going on in the photo. My Grandfather was an amazing inspiration as a photographer, and my brother who more recently has picked it up and followed in his footsteps. I would love to explore it more, and continue to grow. One of the nice things about being a mom is I always have SOMETHING to photograph!
