Dear Sue...
I wanted to express my gratitude here, but a simple thank you just doesn't seem adequate. Someday, maybe I'll have the chance to share my story so you'll know more fully the part you played in helping me decide I could earn my living as a photographer. I was watching last March as you revealed the portraits you took of your students and felt the same catch in my throat at seeing their reactions as the rest of your viewers around the world. As we wiped away a collective tear, I think hundreds of photographers saw the enormous impact that photography can make on the heart and spirit of another individual.
Like most others, I had setbacks and obstacles along the way, including doubts about starting over late in life, and worries about being able to work while going through chemotherapy. But mostly I have been held back by my own paralyzing fears and feelings of being absolutely stuck. I loved to do headshots and portraits, but was seeing only markets for weddings, families, and children.
After your workshops, I finally have a focus. In a few weeks, I will finally launch my photography business and website at a charity auction where I will donate a session like the one above. I am beyond excited to see what lies ahead. My heartfelt thanks to you, Simona, and the great team at Creative Live.
