My Inspiration<\/span><\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
<\/div>
[vc_column_text]Five years ago, I was living a completely different life. As compared to now, I had different goals and priorities in life. Five years isn\u2019t a short time, but it is most definitely not a long time either. Yet it amazes me how much one can change in that amount of time. Photography was something I had absolutely no interest in back then, let alone the thought of it becoming my job. And here I am creating and freezing moments in time for a living.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Photography has taken me to many places, allowing me to travel, meet new people, experience many things and create many memories wherever I go. This video shows my trip to Seoul, Korea. Sharing with you the process as well as the moments I froze in time. All of this would not be possible if not for that \u201cstep\u201d I took years ago. I\u2019m truly living my life doing what I love. Now I\u2019d like to ask you, Where do you want to see yourself in five years. Are you living at this moment doing that you love? If not, take the step and make the change. Make your dreams a reality.[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInLeft” width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1597513133761{border-right-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 250px !important;padding-bottom: 250px !important;}” uniqid=”5f381da9e281f”]
