Dreams from a Wedding Photographer

Posted by christinebarker on September 13, 2010 · 5 Comments 

SOAR has given many amazing assignments. Most of which I keep on my laptop for my own personal scrutiny, but today I wanted to post this months assignment on the blog.
We were told to write out our dreams. I started with a list, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt as though I was giving the first dream more importance. I truly feel that all my dreams have equal value. They just happen to be in different aspects of my life.

I dream that my son knows his parents love him unconditionally. I dream that he knows even when he is angry or doesn’t agree with the decisions his father and I make, we will never turn our back on him. I dream he is able  to feel free enough to express himself in a constructive way, and feel safe doing it.

I dream about my work…. I LOVE my work! (and I love saying that) I love weddings. I love meeting new friends, and sharing in their excitement of their relationships. I love that people trust me to bring their emotions to life, and I dream to keep doing this, in a BIG way.

I dream of inspiring others to include art in their lives. I firmly believe what we surround ourselves with and participate in help direct our lives.

I dream that the question of photography being included as “art” is answered with a YES by the majority of people. I dream that as photography evolves with new technologies, “art” sees it as a positive evolution.

I dream of people taking on new technologies/photography with creativity and curiosity  instead of uncertainty and self doubt. I also dream of helping people to do this.

I also dream of being the type of person that follows her dreams.

I also dream that my writing gets better
