We all have a dream, don’t we? From the most gigantic and sumptuous to the most modest and humble, we are practically beings driven to this, to have goals, goals, arrival points to reach and, why not, to overcome, whether in any profession where, obviously, wanting to be a professional photographer is closer to reality than we comment and analyze daily here in the eMania Blog.
However, we are also fully aware that rarely mentioning or even letting everyone open your dreams leads to total movement in favor of your goals, it is almost certain that there will be voices that will discredit you, discourage you, see you manipulate. your digital camera and then ask you:
“But does it generate money?”
“Today the area is very saturated, someone thinks he’s a professional photographer, careful, huh!?
“Will it take you a long time to live off this?”
It can even be said that some people will never reveal their innermost dreams precisely out of fear of reproach, injections of “discouragement” that, in some situations, can come even from inside their home, from their relatives, from their husband, in short, unfortunately no one is freed from it.
But, think with me: how many successes have you seen in your life where everything was going wrong and, in the end, it worked?, how many examples from different sectors have been made public to say that they have lived exactly that?Before you tested the world you were able to?
What water did they drink that you can’t drink?How did they do it, you also can’t live and be recognized for your unique gaze translated by your lenses, your lighting equipment, ultimately your style?
The question that you always have to elaborate more carefully is not necessarily what you want, but WHAT PRICE, because it will be difficult. It’s going to be painful. There will come a time when you will even think about giving up, that no one who has reached a comfortable or ascending point in the dream race will hesitate, whether in photography or not.
We said at first that the dream of being a professional photographer shouldn’t stop at what if?What if I don’t have the money for a good camera?”What if I invest badly?” What if people don’t like my photography style?
We made mistakes. Shouldn’t the dream of being a professional photographer be left alone in it?What if?? how it should never stop. It’s your dream. Run after him. Only you know the value and only you will really try what you have earned in the end.
