My ex told me my business would fail

 I had an ex-boyfriend who told me once I shouldn't bother starting a business because I wouldn't be able to make it work

I find this halerious now because I turned a borrowed camera into a multi 6 figure photography business.

The Vomit Pass

The Vomit Pass

One day you’ll be creative and everything flows.

The next you’ll be wanting to gag at your own work. I heard it from Judd Apatow first. The Vomit Pass.

He continued to say that if you judge yourself on your first draft, you’ll never make it to the next one.

So write it out, take that photo, make that post, share the Reel, tell the story.

Stop being so pedantic over everything.

Nothing you do will ever be perfect, but if you don't TRY, you’ll never move.

I worked super hard and for a long time to be working with and photographing women like this. Photos like these don’t just happen.

I paid my dues and definitely told myself that I suck at my own work.

But then, one day, you’ll be looking at your work and smiling because you know that you’ve achieved your goal.

You’ll finally be happy with your work. 

I’m so happy with this that I open my phone often to smile at it.
