I’m going to put a dent in the Saskatchewan Wedding Photography world. If I’m going to do it, it’s going to be big. There are too many “ifs”…

I’m going to do it.

When you’re in your early 20’s, no one is tossing you the keys to a supercar, or telling you to go bury a pickup in mud for the shot. When you put a camera in your hand, people are eager for these things.

After my recent move, I was hit with a surge of creativity, followed by the drop. Nearly a week passed where I was incapable of creating. My drive to go out and explore went numb and I just sat around and waited for the motivation to pull the camera out of my bag and shoot something.

I really noticed the difference when I learned about Facebook’s feature to compare your page to other pages. I stuck a few of my competitors names in the feature and saw that even though they had built up a larger following than I had and they posted every single day, I was reaching so much further. More people were seeing me through this cloud of promotions because I was just showing what I did from a unique and real angle.

“We went out and began awkwardly taking pics of the cars where they sat. I guess we were “warming up”. In hindsight, I think we looked like total amateurs.”
