I. AM. AMBITIOUS.

One of my favorite fine art photographers, Brooke Shaden, started a project entitled, I AM ME. 

One simply has to fill in the blank - I am _____ - and create a photo representing who you title yourself to be. Brooke hopes to promote not only passion in photography but also confidence in our faults and rarity through a self portrait. 

A couple of days were spent contemplating on what my answer would be. And sometime within those hours, it came to me that I want to be a published author, that I want to be a ballet company soloist, that I want to be a well known photographer, that I want to be a filmmaker, a director, a designer...because 

I am a dreamer. 

I AM AMBITIOUS.

It's not my best work, but it does bring to mind the idea. 

Satisfaction isn't usually with me because I've always wanted to improve, to be better in order to reach my dreams and get what I want. Doing so has never been easy. There are always roadblocks on my pathways, curtains to my windows. But despite all the fear and hesitation, I keep on moving forward, jumping over the obstacles. And I will continue to do so because I am ambitious.

Creating this photo formed a clearer image of what I want, who I want to be, and who I am.  

Thank you, Brooke.
