Amelioration - I'm getting better. My style is further defining itself, my clientele is increasing and I'm beginning to understand more of who I am and my position in photography . The further I go, the more humbled and appreciative I am of being able to create and grow . . . It's not about the dollar, it's about the journey and what you collect along the way . . .

Someone asked me a couple days ago "how did you learn to shoot kids so well?" So I told them the story of the beginning of my journey. Knowing nothing of the industry, I asked my mentor "how do I get me a model so I can learn how to shoot!?!". He replied, "who are you aiming to impress? You wanna learn how to shoot . . . Shoot your beautiful daughter! . . . SHOOT WHAT YOU LOVE!!". She's 11 now . . . I've learned so much from our sessions . . . and I've been shooting her ever since. I Love you baby . . . #fspaintbrush #lightislight #daddyslittlegirl (at Chicago, Illinois)
