As I walk down the hallway, I look on each side of me. There are beautiful pictures of models posing, flowers, all kinds of arts, and just big pictures of all chaos just waiting to catch my eye. Then, there it is. As I turn on the corner, I walk on to the hard wood floor that smells of pine and it spreads out so far just to make room for huge cameras and special lights. I look out ahead of me and there are all my friends, they’re my life and I love it. Flashes of light catch my eyes in every other direction, but not just any flash. It’s the flash that catches the past; the flash that catches the moment; and the flash that catches the passion of my life and that is photography. Then I stand there just watching and smiling because I finally did it. I reached my goal. All my friends who also work with me come to me for help, of all people they come to me. Wow, I’ve made it. I’m finally needed in this world. I am somebody!

Photography is my passion, and to become a professional photographer with my own studio and my own style would be my dream job, not only would I be doing what I love, but I would also be able to live my life as a confident woman knowing; that I made it. I got through the big rocks and over the hills and through the risk I had to take in believing that I could do it. If I could reach my goal, I will be the happiest photographer in the U.S. Reaching for my dream job is a enormous step; but without taking it, how will I ever know if I could make it or not?

Another reason why becoming a professional photographer would be my dream job is because I want to prove to everyone that I can do anything I put my mind to. I want to prove that I can be someone. I can be who I want to be. I want to set an example for younger children that if they keep pushing and pushing they will soon make it past the rough parts onto a smoother surface to where God has lead them to. I want to follow God’s path for me; and as for now God has opened the door to this life and I’m not just going to sit back and give up. I’m going to take this opportunity and make it my life, and I’m going to love it.
