A friend of mine was a wedding photographer for years in order to make money to support herself and her artistic photography, but she hated it. She's given it up for a plebe job that allows her time to take the pics she wants to take instead. Welcome back! And congratulations on the 2 portfolios you brought back with you. Good luck with the potential studio job. I’m not surprised that you didn’t enjoy it.

Too true. It is the labels that others put upon us that prevent real growth. When we stop listening to the external noise we can see clearly with real vision and outside the framework of conventionality. Congratulations on your finishing school! You have worked hard for this. Say hello to Randy for me...JDCM Thanks Aravis. Too true. It is the labels that others put upon us that prevent real growth.

I know how difficult it can be to go to school with young women (and men) who are young enough to be my children. I hope the other issues work out as well. I’m sorry to hear about that.

From what you've written it seems like a wonderful place, and absolutely perfect for you. You're obviously soaking it all in and taking as much from the experience as you can; you're wasting nothing. I hope you continue to enjoy every minute of it. Beautifully said.
