    Just follow your passion. Photography got me in a helicopter to photograph a cross country ski race in the French alps and I’m not even a professional. I was just volunteering at the event to take photos because I want to practice. The organization gave me media bib. I start walking around and take photos. Then a ski patroller i know told me to get on the back of his snow mobile. Flying around the course trying to take photos and not fall off. Then the event director saw me (with official media bib) and said quick run to the helicopter!! I was like ahh I’m just a beginner but then say”fake it till you make it!!” So I got to the chopper and started to fire off photos like Arnie in predictor. I had no idea what I was doing. But photography got me there. Love your work Pete.

    Yes! I am proof of this subject. I am a motorcycle enthusiast, I also love photography. I walked into my local Harley-Davidson/Motorsports dealership and said I will do whatever it takes to get my foot in the door. I told them I can take photos for the website. That was 10 years ago! I am now the marketing manager at the dealerships and have been invited as a photographer to multiple bike shows around the country and have been published 5 times making the cover 4 of those! I have grown as a photographer and videographer with this amazing channel. I have learned so much from you my friend! Thank you for all you do!

    For me, the thing I love like taking photos of is life around me. I’m working creating photos of ordinary objects. It helps me slow down to think of different angles of objects that you’ve seen before. I just love life, and little moments. If I can live off of my work, and my work of taking photos of life around me - I would.
