Cute is greater than Cancer

Bald but bold and beautiful. I used my canon EOS 800D in taking this photo which I won as a giveaway here on Canon Imaging Asia last 2017. I know I have physical difficulties to shoot since I can't bend my right knee for 12 years already but I pursue and burn my passion. I followed my heart and begin my photography journey. I have already experience shoots for weddings and debuts. I was really overwhelmed that I took all the chances to shoot because it can bring joy to other people. It can give you a purpose that I am made in this world to make genuine moments in photos. I was diagnosed with cancer stage 1-2 last 2016 and have recurrence this year, underwent 3 knee operations, 33 radiotherapies and I'm still under chemotherapies. I temporarily stopped schools and shoots since I am on the healing process but this doesn't take my fire in doing what I love. Things are pretty hard right now but I believe that waiting with God's grace and understanding that every obstacle is His way to direct you to something even much better. Sometimes we asked ourselves and doubted our capacity to do things but when you realized that God is doing something for you, you'll just seat back and wait for His victory. I waited long enough to have a camera since I can't afford to buy one and God made the way even if it is really impossible. Passion. Perservance. Purpose. That's what my camera taught me that I'll treasure forever. Sooner or later, I'll prove to them, that I, Cute is greater than Cancer.
