VIDEO: SA photographer got an opportunity to work Internationally

JR got an opportunity as a photographer to shoot outside his home country and went to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It has been his dream to take his career international, and it has been something he has talked about. It is important to make sure you are aware of what you say with your mouth because it has been considered to be the truth.

It is like the law of attraction: what you say with your mouth will happen. People should be careful of what they say about themselves. JR is now having the time of his life doing what makes him happy and with the career he has chosen. It is amazing how a camera is able to take him to the UAE, and it may not have been something to pursue for a lot of people. But it had been different because of how the world works.


 

 

 

 

DJ Shimza is one of those people who is travelling the world by being a DJ, and it is possible for anyone to do what they are doing. Vino is also someone in South Africa who is enjoying the same job as a photographer. He is all the time around football games, taking in those beautiful moments. Where you are able to see something great, some people may not see it, but you should keep going.
