Love what you do for a living and you will never work another day is a quote that has always resonated with me. Life, I believe is to short to spend 40-60 hours a week doing something you don’t love. I have been “lucky” enough to have always made an income from the areas in my life I am passionate about.
Like everything in life, following your passion is full of highs and lows. I have never actually achieved any of my ultimate goals (maybe I set them too high?) in the endeavours I have pursued to this point in my life. But in the end it does not matter as the experiences I have had in working towards them will be with me forever.
I love photography, the power of an image to bring memories back to life is what drew me to photography. When I find myself in a funk, feeling like I am not making progress towards my life goals, I look through my personal collection of photo albums and remind myself how far I have come, the special people I have met along the way and how much fun it has all been.
I am so lucky that I get to share my passion for photography with so many wonderful unique couples on their wedding day. The only thing better than doing what you love for a living is finding that special person to share your life with who is prepared to stand by you through all the highs and lows.
