I've been super excited this week as there is now a light at the end of the tunnel....I received word that my graduation application was reviewed, my requirements are complete, and I will be graduating with an Associates in Art and Visual Communications this December!
After many degree changes I feel that I've finally found my passion and something that I really enjoy. Graduating is sort of bittersweet for me, I am so excited to be able to have more time to invest in designing and working on some more photography skills now that I will not be boggled down with homework & classes once I get home from work, but at the same time I've really enjoyed school now that I've found something I love doing, and may eventually miss it. I never thought I would say that, but I think it may be true. I may go back to take a few classes here and there eventually, we'll see what happens.
I want to thank those who have allowed me the opportunities I've had to do so many fun design projects this year. Along side that I've had a lot of fun breaking out and dipping my toes into the photography realm----thanks to a friend who persistently insisted that I take photos of her kids, things just continued uphill from there, with word of mouth spreading it lead to 3 more photo shoots for families over the following few months, and a couple lined up in the near future.
Considering the amount of time I've had to work with, I have felt that my endeavors have paid off this year and word of mouth has spread quite a bit. I was glancing over this blog and realized how much I have actually accomplished since I started this and want to make a goal to do even more in 2011 by building and better marketing my little "business". I'm really excited to see what the future has in store!
