I hope you understand your value. And if you don’t quite yet, I hope that you do soon.

I hope you create from your heart and that you let your art feed your soul.

Never forget when you first fell in love with the golden hour or how it feels to watch a child blossom through your lens.

I hope you keep your beliefs front and center.

See beauty in things that others may not, and prove it.

I hope you always try your best, after all, that is all you can do.

Understand that there are no rules or restrictions to art. Let your imagination be free.

I hope that you don’t lose sight of who you are while trying to meet the demands of friends, clients, or society.

When it gets hard and you feel like you can’t go on for one more day… I hope that you do.

Because, the truth is, it won’t always be easy. You will stumble. You will come across people and situations that make you question everything you’ve put your heart and soul into to build. You may feel defeated. Trust me, I’ve been there. But it is important… oh, so important… that you see that the value in what you do is worth so much more than any bump in your journey.
