Believe in Yourself

     One of the hardest things to do as a photographer, in my opinion, is to believe in yourself.  Sometimes you have a lot of projects that keep you busy and other times you are actively seeking job opportunities.  Recently, I had an accident while traveling through France with my family on vacation.  It could have been way more serious than it ended up being.  While being in France I enjoyed traveling on bikes through the countryside and experiencing the culture.  It is not everyday any of us get to be a part of new cultures in general.
     Photography is more than art to me.  It is my way of being who I am.  I express myself through my photography and I find myself in different ways when I am able to find something I want to remember forever.  I see poppy fields and immediately think my dad would love this.

     Besides being enjoying the French countryside I saw a movie being filmed in a small town, a coffee shop I remembered enjoying with my family on a previous trip to Paris, France.  Half of the time I was traveling I was enjoying every aspect of the trip with my family and the other half I was injured.  I kept going, because I thought to myself when will be the next time I am able to come back to this place.  I am a travel photographer at heart and that was one of my motivations that kept me out exploring France.  If I am able to walk throughout France after an accident than we should all believe in ourselves!
