Chasing Dreams: A Journey Through Photography and Filmmaking

Working on dreams and ambitions is a daily grind. It’s a slow process, bringing them to life one step at a time. As someone deeply passionate about photography and filmmaking, I often remind myself that great things take time and don’t happen overnight.

Photography and filmmaking allow me to dive into an abstract world where I capture walls and architecture. While the critic in me might dismiss it as "just a picture of a wall," the passionate artist in me sees it as capturing design, architecture, and the realization of someone’s vision. It’s inspiring, even when photographing old, abandoned buildings that once held so much—it’s like capturing a beautiful tragedy.

Keeping a positive outlook is tough, especially when progress feels slow. But over time, things fall into place. Looking at my journey from a grateful perspective, despite how hard it often is, I see things coming together. I have several projects lined up that I’m excited to work on and share with you all.

One of the challenges I’m working through is creating and releasing an album. I have a few ideas: "Street Odyssey" and "Nomadic Expression." "Street Odyssey" is likely to be a summer release next year, while "Nomadic Expression," a winter-based project, might come out after the holidays. It’s a bit against the grain, but it feels right.

I also want to revisit the roots of my photography, capturing candid street moments and starting conversations with strangers to take their photos. Whether this will be part of "Street Odyssey" or a separate project, I’m still figuring it out.

This creative journey isn’t easy. It’s 3:30 in the morning, and I’m on day four of uninstalling social media. Without the constant distraction, I find myself thinking deeply about what I want to create and how to do it. It’s a bit crazy being up this late, but this is the life of an artist.

Tonight, I’ll wash my face and get some sleep. Tomorrow, I’ll get back to the grind, working, disconnecting, and living a bit to find my rhythm in creating. This 3:30 a.m. filming session isn’t ideal, but it’s part of the process.

Thank you all for tuning in. I appreciate your support and look forward to sharing more with you soon. Catch you next time, hopefully at a more reasonable hour.
