If you're looking to go full time or already took the leap, I'm rooting for you!
Having your life partner beside you probably made all the difference, ‘in driving away with the music blasting’. God is good.
Having your wife beside you and her full support a big blessing
I feel like waiting for perfect might never show up - I took the leap when I started as well, and it was fantastic. For those not ready to leap? I think it's really important to understand that just because you're not full time, you still need to be profitable. Charge the same rates as full time, because you still have the same expenses. Plus your time is even more precious!
This is a great tip thanks Christine!
Thank you for sharing. Sometimes I feel as though I’m not good enough, yet I have to keep in mind what God has for me is for me and stepping out on faith is what I need to do. Just nervous of the unknown 🙏🏾
Hey Brother, I just happened to see you on TH-cam...Our stories are similar...the fact that you and your wife Prayed about it, is Major....God's Got You,Your Family and Your Business...
BE BLESSED TODAY AND EVERY DAY 🙏
Am at the piont where you were once!praying and believing for the best next step
I definitely commend you for sharing your story about going full time the non traditional route. There are plenty of advice that speaks about going full time entrepreneur by having 3-6 months of savings before doing it. I’m in the same situation where you were in where I’m contemplating going full time myself. The scary thing is I’m the bread winner of the household so yeah that sense of security brings in comfort. As a follow up video maybe you can talk about your journey being full time after you left your job like what all did you do to keep the income coming in. Other than that this was a great straight to the point video. 💯✊🏾
You are amazing 🥤💯🚀
I quited my job this year March with little savings. But I really love photography and feel happy taking pictures. The Joy is different.
It haven’t been easy at all…
Right now I am In between doing portraits, documentaries and wedding. My issue is I don’t know which Niche I should focus on..
I have been thinking a lot about it.
I'm in that boat. I found something that I love to do. Like you said everybody's situation is different. I picked this up pretty late in comparison to most and I have about 10 years left before I can retire from my day job. So this is going to be my retirement gig even though I wish I could crush it like you do full time.
I’ve been contemplating for a while now, have had talks with my wife over and over. Been doing photography 4 years now while working my corporate job, I basically have two full time jobs and know that I’ll have to make a decision sooner or later. 😅
Since you went full time in 18, can you talk about your mindset in early 2020? Was there regret or concern before the pandemic made you "famous"?
Thank you for sharing your story! 🙏🥺
Thanks REEM for this. Going full time isn't easy. You would need all the support especially from your partner for this to work out. I am still at the beginning stages. Praying and hoping things work out for good. God bless you REEM
Wishing you nothing but the best on your journey!
@@ReemPhotography thank you REEM
Wow, thanks for sharing this. I have a wedding videography business and this is really inspiring.
Definition of WALK BY FAITH my brother I pray GOD bless you with peace and happiness for trusting in him congrats this video helped me and gave the push I needed …SALUTE KING !!!!
Man this is almost my exact story. I had no plan. Only thing I was sure of was that I was sick of my job!
Amazing story Reem. Ive been following you on instagram and just absolutely love the images you capture. Im happy for you and its wonderful that you made the call to leave the 9 to 5. not putting the two weeks notice in salute to you man , God had other plans!!
Can you share us your editing
thank you for sharing your experience bro, I'm a motion designer and professional photographer, it's been 5 years I've been in Dallas-Texas from Africa but I'm having trouble getting started on my own account because I don't know anyone in the USA, but this video really helped me to understand that even you Americans were facing the same problems me. I love that 💝
Thanks again Bro.
Reem, this is definitely part of your life's purpose. Thank you so much for how you inspire many of us!
Thank you so much!
❤❤❤ thanks for sharing!
Thank you…. I really need this
Thank you very much boss
I love this! 🙏
I'm Also a Wedding Photographer One More Year Retirement From Present Job Full-Time Weddings and Portraits I'm Thankful To Do So.
Thank you for sharing your story. Actually, I am a beginner photographer who has been shooting for some time. I didn't take it that serious until on night when God spoke to me about my gift and to go full time.
Will be starting, God willing, next year😊😊
Thank you for this, im 36 , I been in this business for almosr 12 years , but Im also in the Canadian military since almost 18 years, full time, good stable salary but im at a point where I hate my job but its hard when thats all you knew since 12 years
Wooaa...
Looking at the way you do your things...
I just feel like leaving Videography and jumping straight to Wedding Photography like you do bro😊😊
Just keep up the good work.
Transitioning to full time wasn't easy..it took me 4 years to get at a good place. The sacrifice was definitely worth it.
Absolutely!
wow 😳
How did you ensure you had enough bookings to go full time ?
I didn’t 😂😂
Role model
Informative 👍👍
Inspiration!!
My wife and I...."We prayed about it"... notice 🙏
Yep!
What if you want to go full time and you don’t have enough funds to get your gears???
I still rent some equipment for shoots😊
Nice contents 🔥
How much do you charge for a wedding here in USA ?
I feel good about you going full time. I am in the same situation you were in years ago. I am also an accounting student final year but I don’t feel the need to even pursue that again but I guess I have to finish hard. I have the zeal to pursue photography full time. My dad is a photographer based in Ghana he’s been doing photography for 33year so I learnt from him but you’ve been a great inspiration to me you are my mentor and I am glad I came across your page on instagram
I'm saving in my current job so i can start full-time in 10 months' time, but steady inflation is making me feel like I'm digging a tunnel that has no end .. 🤧🤧🤧 its depressing 🥲
Loving all the new content Reem!
