Our 7 Key Takeaways:
- Read a lot of books. That’s a great place for inspiration!
- Look at the women around you: your mother, your aunts; amazing role models are everywhere!
- Always vocalize what you want. Don’t be afraid to ask for it and go after it!
- Don’t give up after your first failure. It won’t always be smooth sailing. Not everyone will like your work.
- It is important that you like what you do, a lot. And don’t be afraid to put your work out there. Reach out to everyone who you think will give valuable feedback.
- You can choose to do a Master’s in photography or learn skills online. But what’s important is that you do it everyday and that you work on it constantly.
- When it comes to choosing unconventional careers like photography, you need to show your work to your parents and convince them that you’re good at it. Parents tend to need a lot of reassurance.
