The Beginning of Every Single Moment

It all begins with an idea.

“Sunsets are proof that endings are beautiful too” - I remember when I first read that quote. I remember when I graduated from undergrad and had no job. I remember trying to figure out the next chapter of my life and having no idea what direction to go, trying to figure out what would be the perfect fit for me. I remember that I had to remind myself to trust the process. Then one day, I took out my journal and wrote out a list of 27 things I wanted to accomplish before settling down. One of which was to find a new hobby. I think you can guess what happened next!

That’s right, I bought a camera and the rest was history. This is the first place I started taking photos - Long Beach, NY. This is my safe haven. This is the place that brings me peace and helps me feel grounded. This is the place that settles my constant thoughts. This is where every single moment became my next chapter without me even knowing it at the time. Isn’t that beautiful? That sometimes we don’t know the use of our gifts until that one moment. Although I love and work in medicine and take joy in helping others, I also realized I have this special gift to capture beautiful moments in my own life and many others’.
