i finally found the motivation to turn my life around. carrerwise. i've always wanted to be a photographer, always loved to capture the little things that make life beautiful or painful. there's beauty in everything.
i've never really had the courage or to be honest, the motivation to push myself to do it all the way. i've always given up too early and now it's time to take control of my life. next month i'll assign myself to this homeschooled photography course that i will be having for a year. I'll get a part time job so i can still have money of my own and pay for the equipment and i'll try and find some models to create a book of my own. These are the simplest things and i know that you dont usually need a lot of motivation to do that but for me it's such a big step. I've spent my life listening to people saying "you wont go anywhere with photography, there are no jobs for photographers" well, fuck off, i can do this.

On another side of my life, i was supposed to shoot my new set tomorrow, booked an amazingly cute hotel room and everything but the shooting has been repelled to next month since i'm broke. i'm kinda pissed but it's not completely cancelled. so it's all good.

And finally, a message for my frenchies from Paris on here :

Je cherche des models pour mon book donc n'hsitez pas (si vous habitez Paris ou les alentours) me faire signe si vous tes intresses. Ca serai super cool de votre part.

All that being said, here are some pictures from the past week:
