Have you ever felt like something was calling you your whole life, and even though you knew you should listen to the call, you never did? Well, that’s what I did. I waited until I was 37 years old to start my photography business in another country (Sweden).
Since the age of 12, I wanted to be a professional photographer. I knew it in my heart and soul at that young age. But of course, everyone else had their own opinion about what a photographer could earn. They just projected their own beliefs and couldn’t see past that.
I’d like to share my story with you and hopefully, you will be inspired to take action on what you want to pursue in life. Because we are the ones who can take the steps to create what we want.
