"Must be nice"- This is something that a stranger said to me on Facebook after I posted a photo of my brand new D800 sitting in it's box on my kitchen counter. I'm not exactly sure what she meant by those words. It must be nice that what? That I've worked my butt off to be able to afford my dream camera? I'm not sure.
Though I am not exactly certain about what she meant, this is something I've had on my mind for quite some time: Getting to where you want to go takes love, hard work, dedication, and yes, a little more love. Owning my dream camera is something that took three years. Three years of nonstop dedication. Hard work. Late nights. Tired mornings. Work-filled weekends. Work-filled holidays. Less time with family. Less time with friends. More time with my camera. More time with Photoshop.
This is something that I have worked for. This is something that I deserve.
Here is something that I found on Pinterest (please excuse the language). I think this illustrates the point I am trying to make quite well:

I'm still working my butt off to get to where I want to be. And to be quite honest, I'm not sure where I'm heading. And I'm not sure if I'll ever be settled with where I'm at.
I feel like I'll always be reaching for the sky. And I'm 100% okay with that.

This is the first shot I have taken with my new baby. She's a whole different beast compared to my first two, so I have a lot of learning to do. I'm looking forward to it.
Smiles and lots of love, Taylor
P.S. I want to thank my little sis for always being my "test bunny". I love you baby Al.
