Do you ever feel like you’re just waiting for something to happen???

I do.

The problem being, I don’t know what I’m waiting for.

I want to be a photographer, but don’t know what my next step is.

I don’t believe that I take good enough photo’s to charge people. But that would seem like the next logical step. To just get out there and start doing it.

That’s pretty hard when you have no faith in your own abilities. Plenty have said that what I do is good. But they’re not looking at the photo’s I’m looking at. And they’re not seeing what I IMAGINE the picture will be in my head before I take it. Hence, they’re not seeing that I’m not getting anything like what I WANT to get from my camera.

It’s very frustrating. Much like when we were doing stained glass, everyone thought the work we did was amazing. But compared to the lady in the shop who did the most amazing things with glass…my stuff was shit. Without a word of a lie.

I just want to go somewhere with this. But don’t know how to go there with it. I want to take photo’s for people, but I’m not confident enough to charge them. But I need practice so I need to take the photo’s to learn my way around. So if I offer my services for free, then people will expect it to be free when one day, it shouldn’t be. But who decides that??

So I sit and wait for something new to happen. Where can I take a class in self confidence???
