LA fashion photographer escaping Instagram's clutches

Hi Steemit community!

I'm excited to be starting my page on Steemit and join this community. I learned about Steemit from amazing photographer and friend @kommienezuspadt who informed me that Steemit is is the place to be!

A quick intro about me, my name is Michelle and I just moved back to my hometown sunny and oh so hot Los Angeles. I was recently living up in the bay area in Oakland, which I love, but the cost of living and desire to pursue fashion photography brought me down to LA.

I'm on my 3rd year of pursuing photography full time. I left my job as a manager at a start up called Stitch Fix two years ago, did some traveling, and am now here living the hustle life in LA. So far so good. I've been able to get pretty steady work, but recently I've felt like things have slowed down a bit and I'm trying to think of new and creative ways to make money doing what I love. (Ideas and suggestions welcome!)

I'm hoping to use Steemit as a kind of journal where I share my work and my journey to quitting my part time job and living fully on photography...and you know booking those 30K shoots...any day now :)
