In fact I’m a wedding photographer from my own studio that I built back in 2009 called Bima Adhitya Photography and yes I love my job so much. Dear all my photographer friends no matter where you are, my name is Bima and thank you for stumble upon my blog, really appreciate for what you doing here.
All of my friends are truly humble person and we just met at the first time when I study in an architecture college in Yogyakarta Indonesia. Here we travel, eat, cry, laugh, and do everything together till we belong to best friend for over than 17 years and I sure that it still counting.
So if you work on the same industry like me or in some other similar niche than I hope I can share a good life inspiration story for all of you no matter where you are and no matter how you struggling on your life right now. I believe that what my friends’s quote that I gonna share today is so true and it will take you into the next level person that will make your self and people who stand surrounding on you feels happy.
When Good Friendship Give Me a Great Life Inspiration Story
I do have a loving mother who take care of me and give all her attention only to me even her marriage broken when I was 4, I really appreciate that she’s not going to get married because all she need is only deliver a great love to me till she passed away in 2011, at lest I also have a life inspiration story directly from my wife too.
Generally I’m the only son from my parents so I personally never have a feeling for having a nice and complete family like anybody else who have a dad, mom, brother, and sister. Seriously I feel alone till one day back in 2003 I met those 4 lovely person who push me into someone who must be ready to face all situation and ridiculous condition no matter good or bad both for my life and business.
If you do have a best friends than I really want to say congratulation and you should grateful for that because sometimes people who is not coming through your biological human being could be your best brother and sister one day. I know that it sounds weird but I believe that some of you have the same situation like me.
What I write here is to respect for what my best friends taught me about how to pushing your self crossing the limit and bring your self to be great person that could deliver more love for your family and all people around you. If you starting to feel that you have a good friend that always helping no matter how deep you fall than just make a phone call or write some text for them and say how lucky you are for having them in your life.
It’s YOLO, You Only Live Once!
One day, a good friend of mine telling me about a weird acronym spelled as YOLO till they say over and over again than finally I ask them what that word stand for than they just told me that YOLO is stand from,
You – Only – Live – Once
As a friend we surely do some crazy things like travel far away from our hometown to some places that we never had before or just visiting one of our friend’s house and buy some snacks and talk together till late night, surely it just like common activities that most good friends do.
I don’t really know either they make a joke or serious word about YOLO because for me this word mean a millions that surely give me a life inspiration story for the rest of my life
If you read my previous post about Nina, than you may know that I run this photography business together with her who belong to my wife and mom from my 4 kids. She is a beach lover by the way so when we belong to partner than we going to the beach for few times and just sit back and enjoying the sunset together right after our photo session done. I was grateful that I was born in Indonesia which have so many beautiful beaches so I can periodically travel with Nina to some lovely beach both in our home town and also when we go to Bali.
Someday Nina said to me “Babe, how if one day you could shoot for wedding in this island”
I was turn my head and see beautiful crystal clear beach that I surely think that it’s not in our country till I ask her about where those beautiful beach located and she said,
“It’s Maldives!”
Wow…I was wondering that if I could realize her dream to get a photo shoot in Maldives than this gonna be our life inspiration story for all kids and people around us. I never travel to Maldives before but I seriously know that this country have been visited for world celebrity or high-profile person who expecting magnificent beach experience beyond their expectation.
My mind is blown away till I remember for what my friend told me about their “joke” quote called YOLO, You Only Live Once!
Yes I seriously only live once than why I’m too afraid to dreaming about Maldives. If I can do it than I could bring my wife to her dream beach and doing some photo shoot there, I know it might be hard to do but it’s gonna be fantastic at the end and the most important thing from this ridiculous dream is, I can tell a life inspiration story for my kids and people around me about how to realize a crazy dream into reality.
Down here are my photos when finally I can touch down in Maldives for shooting real pre wedding project that I got through my blog and we serve cross country couple who never meet us before, so it’s like a destination wedding photo shoot. This Maldives’s life inspiration story is not the end because the year after another international couple also asking us go back to Maldives for engagement shooting. I was surprise and so grateful for what God gaves to me on this life because now I could telling my self that,
“my friend’s joke quote Y.O.L.O are so damn true, we definitely live once, so why we are too scare just to dream about superb experience that majority people don’t!”
Once again big thanks to 4 best friend of mine, they are so inspirational!
