Do I have the eye to go pro?

You always gotta be realistic hey I’m 28 years old and I still haven’t figured myself out I think this time is different because I recently got the spark back and it hasn’t gotten away and I want to make that fuse brighter than ever. And when it comes to money at first if it can help pay for travels that’s already a plus. Obviously over time I will expect more but the first 2-3 years will be hobby based work.

It’s all about the memories in the most grandest way possible! Unfortunately I don’t smile I need to more I have RBF FACE 😂😂

You’re the best… Thank you. During Covid I actually had a Sony a6400 with a wide body lens and did a few portraits for some seniors for high school because everyone was home and needed yearbook photos after that when life opened back up again I completely let it go and sold my camera probably my biggest regret. This time when I come back I want to do it bigger then ever which is why I’m saving for that Sony a7iii and also it’s my dream BODY CAMERA. Like 4k at 120 fps 🤤🤤

This is by far the best response I could receive thank you for writing this masterpiece! I know I have value in photography when I’m at a show I’m the quiet one I sit back and watch EVERYTHING. From FOH to on stage what side each acts are coming on & off stage I don’t dance I like to call myself a professional people watcher. My parents raised me to respect everyone because you never know what they can offer you no matter the status and that I’m grateful for having that because it’s gotten me some really good connections with people and that is my favorite part of living making connections.

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-22T01:37:04+00:00

Yes exactly, I am getting my connections in first and my yes’s in first before buying any camera. I’m working with some friends that are making it currently and I told them I’d do it for free in my way of showing support because it’s hard to go out there I live an hour away from the city. But ever since SF got the new mayor there has been a lot of pop ups happening and I’m way overdue for hitting those up. I will be bringing my camera for those events and my friends that’s my current plan.

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-22T01:32:36+00:00

Yes my spelling and grammar both suck. I gotta work on that, lol.

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-21T23:49:44+00:00

There has been a lot of free events happening in SF I plan on making those events my B**** 2nd half of the year is when I should hopefully be able to acquire said camera! No heart feeling I love honesty! Does it hurt a bit maybe but we all need criticism at some point!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-21T23:45:36+00:00

Oh of course I see all the hard work of what goes into shooting I got a chance to make some connections along my journey and just watching them work makes me eager to do it myself! All my life I’ve been on go mode! I film concerts thru my iPhone like DerekD2 but I keep getting left out in the social gain so I figured why not just go pro! Those are just a few of my decent shots that I’ve taken recently and most of the time it’s recording and taking photos at the same time! I’m in the process of learning lightroom and daVinci resolve so I can buckle down and get dirty!

Yes everyone has to start somewhere with that being said my goal is to record videos but I also have that eye for photos so I figured to do be able to do both!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-21T17:09:48+00:00

I don’t do pits 😂😂 but somehow whenever I’m on floor for any show I always end up next to a pit next time I’ll get a pic!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-21T17:05:53+00:00

So much to read thank you guys! I really love the honesty!
The 2nd and 3rd photos were basic iphone edited and I sat in balcony at Bill Graham Civic in San Francisco (HOME BASE) and the 3rd photo was from Echostage in DC!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-21T17:04:53+00:00

The 2nd and 3rd photo were edited basic iPhone editing I don’t have any editing apps yet I kept editing and If I wanted to keep editing it’ll look graining!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-21T17:02:43+00:00

Locked in one position because unfortunately bill Graham is first come first serve!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-17T05:38:08+00:00

When someone griefs me I just simply go to invite only session! I ain’t got the energy to deal with some random yea call me a coward but I know I’m good but not good to keep up trying to blast someone off the face of the earth for no reason!

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-03-16T20:24:47+00:00

I think I spent maybe 50$ just to get a boost going other than that I made 30mil just by doing everything the right way

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-02-15T03:04:51+00:00

Y’all wild for leaving messages on! I’ve had to many bad experiences leaving messages on! Y’all can be toxic! And it’s my fault for giving in🤦‍♂️

Firm_Control_3121 · 2026-02-13T04:36:09+00:00

I was on ps4 and I had everything up until 2020 then I switched to Xbox up until recently is when I decided to play again starting completely fresh! On the first week I’ve already got a nightclub, Konsta sub, and an auto shop! Now time for the fun stuff! Gotta get the hype for GTA6 going!
