Do what you love.

"Sometimes it is hard to make money. Money is scarce sometimes. That's the way it is for those of us who just do what we love. We learn to adapt. We learn how far we can take it. We make compromises when we have to.

But the beautiful thing about it is, he knows what he loves. He knows what he values. And he is being true to himself. I wouldn't change that. It's hard doing what you love. It can wear you down and put lines in your face. You end up with a leathery neck and tattered jeans and scarred workbooks and callused hands. You end up weather-beaten. That is, you end up with the face that you deserve. Your face becomes the record of a life lived according to what you love.

There's something to be said for that."

I like to think that these are the guys I have photographed. I hope to become a person who does what she loves.
