I’m a big believer in the idea that we make our own reality through the choices we make on a daily basis. I’m really good with “The Vision Thing” and as of the moment, I’m mulling how I might be able to, in a way, cover New York Fashion Week next year.
Once I secure the Nikon camera I want (need?) then I can begin to plot out how I’m gong to get to NYC during fashion week so I can take street fashion photos. Every problem is an opportunity in disguise, so it will be fun think up how I might make such a thing a reality.
I would just want take photos during NYFW for, say, 24 hours. But a lot would rest on some issues that I don’t really have much control over. And, yet, maybe I can figure something out. It would be a dream come true to do something l like that successfully.
The point would be to use such photos to build up my portfolio.
There is so much to think about, now that I’ve picked “professional photographer” as the thing I want to do at some point down the road. Or, more specifically, my ultimate dream is to be a fashion photographer. That — along with being a pop-rock DJ — is kind of the sweetspot when it comes to things I can do well and maybe — just maybe — get paid to do it.
But we’ll see, I guess.
I still don’t have the camera I need — or at least want. Then there are all kinds of other things I need to do as part of this particular vision of my future. AND, while I’m doing that, I have four novels to finish as quickly as possible.
