Finally I'm doing some {{late}} @bloghomework , but better late than never right? :P
I really wanted the time to sit down and write this, I have been here in this community for just over a year now and from starting out, (I originally joined this site to try become a photographer as we only have one staff currently in South Africa) I personally fought alot with my skills versus the freaking AMAZING talent that is here. I cried, I laughed, I shouted at my computer late at night. Drank too much coffee editing and surfed ALOT on the site. Through all the frustration of the first few months until sets went live, getting a bit better, more confident as the shoots went on, one person I remember following first is @roz
<3 <3
This amazing lady took the time to message me back when I asked her questions about shooting sets, she not only is a major babe but a really intelligent, beautiful person on the inside and out!!! My dream would be to assist her on one of the sets she shoots , reflector holding, fetching her water, cookies... whatever....she also inspired me to shoot a hopeful set of my own, I really wish I could meet her in person one day, and if we ask the universe nicely, I'm really hoping that happens!!!!
The next person who I follow on a regular basis, she is like the sassiest lady i know online @chefbeth
She recently became a hopeful and I can't wait to see her set!! I stole this preview off @roz's page.... just because I'm so excited to see what they created.
She loves superhero shirts (that I secretly wish I could steal through internet teleportation... how is that not a thing yet, c'mon science sheesh!) and posts amazing food porn! We are friends on facebook and I really enjoy reading this ladies blogs and keeping up with her no pants adventures. My wish would be to taste some of that delicious food she posts photos of and to shoot a multi with her one day, cause i kinda have a thing for her amazing booty...... but seriously I adore @chefbeth, she is a gorgeous soul and i really really hope we meet in person one day!
ok, next lady crush goes to @soraleia <3
I really want to meet this lady and hear, in person, all about her Japan adventures (have you read the blogs? if not you really need to read them!) she has also been a inspiration to me, she is so beautiful and confident in her own skin. She has amazing ink and is the tiniest bit obsessed with star wars. She also shoots amazing sets, like this one HERE that just hit member review. I hope we get to meet one day <3
Two members I would love to meet::
@maggie_fracture !!!
well, she is just so so beautiful! I follow her on instagram and LOVE LOVE LOVE all the shoots she does, the mini sets with her husband are amazing! I would love to grab a beer with her and take a few shots of her if I can <3 she likes my photos sometimes and I always feel a bit like a fangirl when I see she does {{ i am so lame right now }} but I really do admire her modelling style and her confidence in shoots is so appealing :)
And lastly, but I always save the best for last, is @raindogdude
He is such a beautiful soul, I love his poetry he writes!! mostly I have a crush on his gorgeous furkid Waylon <3 I would absolutely love to go for a walk with these guys and share a picnic lunch and just have the best afternoon chasing tennis balls or throwing sticks with Waylon and chatting about poetry with his owner :)
Well, after what started out as a photography quest a year ago, turned into this AMAZING community of people, inspiring me everyday with their own adventures and photos. Thanks SG <3
