Back in 2019, my dream was to shoot for an artist. It was arduous at first because I was also pursuing nursing school at the time which made my dream almost impossible to achieve. I then met @toneyhandsome again at the gym, and I told him that I was going to stop shooting because nursing school was getting serious. He encouraged me not to waste my talent, saying, “I can do both”. All glory to God, the hard work finally paid off on 3/5/22. The boy is officially a registered nurse. Thank you to everyone who supported me throughout nursing school and also for everyone who supported my photography. Any type of support was sincerely appreciated. @toneyhandsome, thank you for believing in me, and allowing me to pursue my dream to shoot for an artist. I love you family and I don’t take any of it for granted. I’d also want to express my appreciation to @flicksbydaniel for providing me countless opportunities to shoot, meet amazing people and grow as a photographer. I love you fam! There would be no shotbylouu without @toneyhandsome and @flicksbydaniel. To my sister, I am very proud of you and I am grateful that we were able to experience this journey together. I love you! To all my friends/family, and anyone who supports me, thank you for the love, patience, and support. I love y’all and I hope I am setting a great example for you guys. I aspire to inspire y’all to go after your dreams. Y’all too can “do both” or do anything you desire. Focus on the small goals, learn to love the process, and everything else will fall into place. - Lou, RN, BSN ✨🦋 P.S.
