Ideas, ideas, ideas!!!

I haz them.

I had my last panel review ever on Tuesday. It went well. Very well. I left there with a feeling of finally heading strong in the right direction. Next quarter is going to be a really long road, and a short time to get there (we're gonna do what they say can't be done yeah yeah smokey and the bandit). The feedback given to my work was really insightful and helpful. Sure, there are always technical things that I could be better at ... I know this, the people on panel know this. They talked a little bit about the technical things, but mostly about making a better photo ... in the sense of a more meaningful photo.

I'm encouraged. I'm motivated. I'm ready to produce the best work that I possibly can. I had so many random ideas for photo shoots just floating around in my head, it was hard to make sense of them ... so I wrote them all down. Wrote down the concept, possible models, production needs, locations, everything that I could think of associated with the shoot. I now have a list of about 12 shoots that I want to do next quarter. That will equate to about one shoot per week. If I can pull everything off, and to the level that I'm hoping to achieve, my portfolio will completely transform next quarter.
