Opportunities Falling in the Lap

So I know I already posted something today, and the fact that I'm doing a double post is quite impressive to myself. I just needed to make a small post on this. Today I went to visit my grandpa in the hospital, he had a heart episode, but thankfully they figured it out and are putting a defibrillator/pacemaker in tomorrow. Well, while I was there I ran into two of my aunts and their families. I had already talked with one of my cousins about doing her senior pictures for next year, and so my aunt just came out and asked me if I would be interested in doing a friend of her's wedding photos! I am absolutely terrified to say yes, I haven't even started doing any kind of events...although I will be doing my first fundraiser event in less than two weeks. So I asked a friend of the family if he had any advice for me, and he said you just need to jump in and do it! He told me that he remembers being terrified the first time he did a wedding, and that as he kept doing more, he kept getting better. So that helped me a little. He also offered to get together with me to look through some of the things he has done to give me some ideas. I'm really starting to consider this as a career path. I know I wouldn't want to do events forever, but I would love to do something in the field whether it was portrait, or landscape photography. I'm going to seriously look into the Art Studio program at UWM now.

Alright, that is all the excitement for today...I'll definitely be back to post soon!
