The struggles of an artist…I have a client who is dissatisfied with my work…agreeable so. It wasn’t some of my best and I didn’t really capture enough of the story of the day. This is probably one of my firsts, dealing with a client that is so upset and disappointed. It seems like my fashion work is taking off and people really want to work with me but weddings are so much different. The drama, stress, unknowns, timeline…all overwhelming at times. You know what I mean, you’ve been there.
But after letting them talk and just hearing all their upset…I thought of a solution. Not the BEST solution. But a solution. It was nice to see their eyes light up to the idea and made me feel at least a little better…like here we go. I got a lot of help from my team and how supportive they all were to my work. But then again I feel very alone in what I did and didn’t capture.
But there’s lot of learns from this also. What not to do, what to do next time and how it feels to fail. It will only make me stronger and better at what I’m doing and you know what…it could’ve been much, much worse. Thank you for that!
But the flip side of it…I have two big meetings today with Ford Models, & the head of Chicago’s Fashion Focus Week. So I’m not in too bad of a place and def this lesson will make me even better.
I had to post a picture from one of my favorite artists, Paolo Roversi to help me get out of this funk. He always helps to keep my head looking up and to remember where I need to go….
