I have been a photographer at the professional level for several years, and I still struggle with confidence! I think we are our own worst critics. May I suggest a book to you? You should totally check out a book titled "God Is At Eye Level" written by Jan Phillips. Talk about a confidence booster because after you read it, you will no longer be shooting for other people, but shooting for yourself! Amazing! Hi Linda! Thank you for your sweet comment!

I loved your post and I know what you mean. I have been a hobby photographer, I love it, and recently people have been asking me at my church and friends to take photos for them, but I lack the confidence yet. I fall back on Jesus and know that "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Phil 4:13 I was searching the internet for presets in LR and found your site and read your Blog and know that this is a God moment. I love meeting other people with the same interests as me and that are Christ driven. You are truly blessed and it was so nice to read your post. Well I know I don't know you, but you give me hope in this industry. thanks Linda Hello,

God's light is shining on you now even if it isn't as bright as you feel it should be. Many times it isn't until we hear someone else's tragic story that we are reminded of our blessings. You have many gifts and many blessings in your life, Wendy. You have truly been a special blessing within my own life dealing within God's plan for me. Each one of the people i meet along the way in which share my joy and passion...who can understand why the tears are flowing, why the smiles are huge.....and who can love just as i do....were meant to be a part of my life. I am so proud to know you. Perhaps broken, but the spirit is beautiful. God’s light is shining on you now even if it isn’t as bright as you feel it should be.

Photography Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:06:35 +0000 http://blog.wendycphotography.com/?p=3861#comment-1027 Thank you Scott. But learning to be honest with myself is the hardest part. I always seem to make excuses for myself, and at the time they all sound great. But hitting rock bottom sort of makes you take another look and realize they were just excuses. I have nobody to blame but myself. Thank you for always being so encouraging! I really do appreciate it! And thank you for the blog suggestion. I will definitely check it out. The idea of another photographer going through some of the same emotions is inspiring. Becoming a photographer is what has opened up my eyes so much! Thanks again Scott! Thank you Scott.

The pressures that we feel on a daily basis is just God molding us into what He wants us to be. It's the age old story of the potter and the clay. A potter must continue to add force to that piece of clay, or it will just fold into a glob of clay, spinning wildly out of control. Without trials and troubles, we will never be what He has in store for us! May I make a suggestion of a blog I read on a regular basis. It's by a guy named Bill Fortney. If you don't know who Bill is, give him a look. He's a photographer that has been around for over 40 years. I have had the pleasure of meeting him, and going out to eat with him on a couple of different occasions. Bill is a photographer for Nikon, sorry, but more importantly, he is a devout Christian. His blog looks at Christianity through the eyes of a photographer! Hang in there sister, and just stay in the center of that potters wheel. We don't want you becoming a glob of clay spinning rapidly out of control! Your friend!

Something we all need to be more aware of, just how inadequate we are without Him. Beautiful. Beautiful Wendy. Something we all need to be more aware of, just how inadequate we are without Him.
