Storms & Waves,

You know even though I know I shouldn't, I compare myself constantly to what's around me. It's a healthy part of progression I think! You need to compare yourself to get a feel for what you've attained so far and how your progressing. I'm not afraid to admit that when I started photography I automatically wanted to be not just good at it, but abso-fabulous! I remember opening up my new camera, an (I loved actually owning a dslr) but a little bitty part of me was actually a bit frustrated as I didn't know where the power lead plugged in! An that made me feel a bit frustrated.. as I knew that in that moment I was laid bare and completely new. An empty glass just waiting to be filled up with the knowledge & experience that was yet to come.

When I began my journey as a new photographer back in 2013 I aspired to be on a level of pros. Not for my ego, I just felt that I wanted to create beautiful.. all be it breath taking! images. An I felt that I was capable of creating that high level work that inspired me. It felt attainable. Obviously we all know that you can only get to "those levels" through graft & practice, not to mention hour upon hour of learning but maybe It's like being in the centre of a storm, you've got gale force winds blowing you every which way as you get bombarded with so much info that it can quite literally blow the wind out of your sails. You navigate as waves crash into you but God willing you remain focused as you steer your way through the wild windy waters.

It's truly hard graft, but if you live for the taste of the wind & the wild & your well aiming for that calm, that amazingly beautiful rainbow amidst the stormy sky. Ready to breathe that freshness deep into your lungs, as you finally piece together your knowledge.


An if your like me.. then your maybe also waiting for that perfect moment to pull out your camera to capture it ;)


Your dream is possible, anything is possible. Keep on hustling.. YJ #lovin #storms
