The Biclars

Well, some of you may know, and others I haven’t yet told, but today marked the first day in dedicating myself to my photography/video/web business… and I’m excited and scared at the same time!

I resigned from my day job as a Business Development Manager working for a Telstra Business Dealership 4 weeks ago, and have taken the plunge into working for myself from home.  Some may say that now isn’t a good time to take such a risk given the economic downturn, but the way I see it, there’s always going to be weddings, 18th’s and 21st’s, anniversaries, and corporate functions that need to be photographed and or videoed.  I have a back log of customer work that has been waiting for me for the past few months, and for the next 2 months, I have 7 weddings booked that I’m shooting!

So, what did I do on my first day of being a dedicated employee/boss of Gautier?  I setup a second computer, cleared out all the rubbish and junk from the study and it is now a place I can seriously call my office
Various computer equipment and media was purchased, Windows and applications setup on both computers, setup a filing system both for softcopy and hardcopy, and the finishing touch tonight was my email signature.  It’s now 12:17am and I’m ready to crash!

It’s such a great feeling to know that I can put 100% into my day focusing on the thing I love to do and constantly learn about, capturing (photography/videography) and sharing (DVD’s/websites).

Good night all, and thanks to those who have said kind words of support.
But most of all, thanks to Wong for believing in me
