From last quarter of 2010, a sudden rush of work flows in.. added up that I had twice continual high fever of 40'C that time. Some of the work had been delayed with no other choice. Having a good time resting for the soul is literally impossible, resting for the physical tired body is what I could get during sleep at the night. Workload is clearing up at a good pace now and shootings are slowing down a bit this month. It's actually a good thing that I have my own down time to do anything that is not related to work. Having to shoot professionally for the past 2 years had me realized something... When business and art meets, we often have to make a decision that helps us make a living. Indirectly, I think the art side is often 'polluted' when business comes into mind.
There are things that are unavoidable but I wouldn't want my work being polluted because of money, I don't want to be a starving artist either. I am seeking for a balance that I don't lost my own self in the process of being a full time photographer. I went for an impromptu self portrait session recently, with a tripod and a camera, hoping to free my mind, experiment with colors and new way of having things done. Soon, I'll be announcing a few free individual portrait shoots in the effort of trying new approach in my work. Follow our Facebook page for coming announcement if you're interested : )
