Hello everyone! I'm back🙃 so I worked for five days starting on Sunday 5 and till Thursday 9 of July. I was running around everywhere super tired so the day after everything was done I just stayed at home and just had some rest without any running. Plus on Tuesday when I came back after one of the shootings, like it was all day, my SD card decided to stop working and I had to recover all the corrupt files I was up till three am but I did it, I got back the photos! It was very stressful I had to run in the morning the next day to buy another SD card and also another film roll because I had only two and I already used those. For film rolls I used those specifically during runway shows because my clients they didn't ask for film photos only digital so I decided to do film photos for myself those that I can use by myself. So I already gave two rolls for the scan and I cannot wait to see the results. Overall it was a wonderful experience I met very interesting people everyone around me spoke Chinese so it was like a full day of people speaking Chinese around me and I loved it 😅🤗 also the talents that I took photos of were very nice very sweet. Unfortunately the magazine that I worked with they had problems with managers of the artists because they're very picky and very demanding. To remind you I was a second photographer and the main photographer was also from China he has amazing camera and light and everything and when he takes a photo it looks like a screenshot from " La la land" movie or something ✨ however the manager didn't like the photos and she was asking to edit those so much the photographer didn't sleep at night and he had to do all the editing. He was exhausted poor thing and he wasn't even paid that much I mean apparently like in China he's very expensive but here the the lady from the magazine she told me that she doesn't pay him much for this work so it was awkward for her that he had to suffer all this for not big amount of payment that he's gonna get.... So yeah there were some problems not from my side, just from the side of the organization between magazine and artist managers, I hope they figured it out 🙃

Apart from this one, what other communities are you in and hold an interest in? For me I like being in Imperium Academy since I learn a lot of business from there, but also my own paid group Camera To Clients VIP haha. What about you?

So... finally after long negotiations and conversations through emails I signed my first working contract 🥳 with Chinese agency that represents Chinese celebrities that come for Couture fashion week (July 6-9). I will be a second photographer and will accompany artists to fittings, street photos and runway shows,of course 😊 I'm really excited but also scared at the same time 😅it's my first big project and I want to do it well😊 The schedule is packed and I actually start this Sunday with their arrival to the hotel and fittings for the show on Monday....( So I will be working July 5-9) They provide water,lunch and transport in between all the spots. Also I keep my ownership rights,so I'm happy that it's the case and if they want to sell some of my photos later they should ask me first and pay me too. I will not be able to share the photos super freely for now, because I have to wait for them to post first and approve the photos I would like to post. But that's understandable, because with all my clients I ask first what I can post and send them how I invision it on my page 🤗 I will be working with a couple and 2 other actresses. I bought all of them little souvenirs from Paris,bag charms that look like croissant 🥐 You can see them on added photo😉 Also,I'm excited to practice my Chinese with them at least a bit, because I have been working on it for some time🙃 I'm not paid a lot,but I have my image rights and will be able to enter the shows that I saw only from outside before....so it doesn't bother me much😊 So... yeah, never stop your outreach!!! This job I landed because I sent an email after I saw on Threads that they are looking for photographers to cover Couture fashion week...If I never sent it I would have never have it...so... Let's go!!!!!

I personally don’t care about the results nor am I rooting for anyone. To be honest with you I’m not even watching it that much… the only reason I ask is because I want to get your thoughts. Who do you think will win the World Cup right now?

Can't share photos from my first work day yet,but it was really nice 🤗 They all liked my small gifts to them☺️ And I got special badge pass for the first time with my full name on it ✨ For me it's a big deal especially living in a new country and starting my own business here...When I still have doubts and imposter syndrome, having this job helps me see that I can accomplish something beautiful ✨ I really needed to share with someone 🤗
