Gratitude 🖤

My Instagram account was created by me approximately 5 month ago and a gain I had was to promote myself as a photographer. Before I had my personal account, which was created at 2015 and contains pictures of me, my family and friends without any specialty, just usual user's account. At the beginning of this summer some pages of "most beautiful girls on insta" ect started to take my pictures from my account to put in their feed, I didn't care so much about it, but from this pages I started to get followers (what actually was very annoying for me and I didn't want it). Then I started to try myself a bit in photography and decided to create a new account to develop exactly in this direction to get customers ect. And of course unfortunately in this primitive reality you have to get specific amount of followers for getting other people's attention. So as I noticed from my experience before - this pages can take my pictures and like this I'll easy get followers for the begging, and then slowly will change and add my art works. And actually I started, but then I have become more and more frustrated about it, because to promote your art you have to make a lot of advertising, order targeted advertising from Facebook, search for clients exactly from my current location, blah blah blah, and I had no idea how to do it, because actuality I was totally 0 in all this promotion things and was never really interested about it. So I decided to concentrate more on myself and pictures of myself, because I thought it will be more easy and I will have enough time to build my own strategy and tactics how to reach what I want. Then my best friend told me about Patreon (I had no idea what is it), I applied here for creator, got approval and... Nothing 😅 after one day I forgot about it and even didn't open this site because still didn't know what for actually I did it. But after that I started to notice this "patreon" link in a lot of places and accounts, which subconsciously gave me the feeling that it really can be something useful. I already had enough people who wanted to see my full sets, but of course everyone needed something trustable to avoid scamming ect. So I decided to try - and for my big surprise it worked. Now I have over 80k followers on Instagram, which I got without paying, without buying bots or anything, and I can't believe in this because I NEVER thought about being a blogger or influencer. But I always was a person who is nihilistic enough and like to break superficial stereotypes, so I always wanted to make something what I really like and at the same time stay in my comfort zone (which is my flat) and not to integrate with people too much in reality, because I am not a big fan of this 😬 And yes, it worked, and now I'm coming to the main point of this everything - it worked because of YOU! I cannot even explain how grateful I am for each of you here. Your support gives me not only motivation, positive emotions and ideas to create something new - it gives me also opportunity to invest it to new clothes, techniques, lights ect, which in future more and more will help me to develop my content.
I want to wish you all the best in 2020. More of happy moments, more of new useful experiences, more of health, more of energy and more of time with family and close people, because that's the things that actually can hold you in a good mental shape. Love you all and will never forget your help and trust in me.
Happy New year 🖤
