Thank you Brooke! And don't be shy about shedding a tear about what you really care about. There is little distance between Passion and Compassion. What each of us do to help make the world a better place counts.
She made me cry, before she even started crying, then I started just bursting. This is so touching. Brooke, not only you are a talented artist that I have admired for a long time, you are also a GORGEOUS human being!
Just watched this and loved it! It's two years later though...wondering how this project with the photography school in India is going...Absolutely inspirational!
This exactly what I needed to hear to find the courage and inspiration. Because lately been feeling worried of not doing very well, unable to find that which will be my success after constantly feeling like I'm not passionate about anything. But this talk helped me to think i must dare doing stuff until something some day hits the target.
Two years on and I've just watched this video after a couple of others of your Brooke... you are SO inspirational in many ways.... I hope this school has worked out well and it's for a brilliant cause. You are so right... everyone does have a story..... I've just ordered your book too and passed some videos on to other photographer friends I know. I also just realised you are i Melbourne later this week.... I wished I'd known earlier.
Re-branding?? Totally love it!! Never heard the term, but, encouraged me to modify my website to NOW reflect me...not the old me, when 1st learning photography. Now since knowing others re-brand, I can do the same because it truly shows my growth. Thanks so very much!!
This is so me! I wrote and published a book a few years ago, designed clothing lines and became a photographer! All risks to just put myself out there as an artist! I love this post. So inspirational to what I have accomplished and what I am still doing. Thank you
Brook is such an amazing, giving instructor. I hope your project is progressing wonderfully. You energy and generous spirit is a gift to us all who need help. And how wonderful to know that giving this gift out to others is your own passion and thus it gives back to yourself also. I hope that makes sense. Thank you so much. I enjoy your videos very much. I am on such a low, low budget... but when life turns around I will purchase your classes. Thank you again.
When I first started watching this video, I thought I would give it 5 minutes then it extended to 10 minutes and there on I watched it till the end. Really a great video and nice presentation. Inspirational.
I am so incredibly grateful for coming across this video, It really push me to think about personal things & prepare to take action, because it involve the Creative Photography passion inside of it, i could relate. I an super proud of you for taking a stand and also sharing with the world you're dreams. Thank you so much this was truly helpful for myself and I know many others. I'm honored to donate to such a great cause as this. Thank you again :)
Thanks for making this video, your timing is perfect. I'm about to go out and shoot my 1st documentary and have no clue what I'm doing. Lol I've also committed to write my 1st book this year and put it up on Amazon and lastly shoot a second documentary on a subject that I'm very passionate about. I've spent the last few weeks trying to get smart on these things and in the last couple of days, I started doubting myself. Your video couldn't have come at a better time and helped to give me that extra push I needed to pursue these goals, so thanks again.
I started shooting for a on-line community event group pro-bono. So my photography gets published on their web-estate and they give me the credit, and assign me events to go cover, or for me to just wander about doing community landscape. What helped I think was that I worked as a fine line draughting and wet lab copy photography technician at a university. I also have some limited but formal studio training. I'm a senior now, so I'm having fun even if the payoff is sketchy.
Brooke, you said it yourself in the class, trafficking is a problem everywhere. Why arent you starting this project here and support your own country's girls. Doesnt chairity start at home?
Thank you Brooke! And don't be shy about shedding a tear about what you really care about. There is little distance between Passion and Compassion. What each of us do to help make the world a better place counts.
This presentation should be on TED
I agree. Very touching and so transparent and genuine.

Wow... Just a Great Presentation & Speaker. Listening to her felt like I sat down with her and had a long talk of myself.
