I think the definition of a good partner is someone who listens to your hopes and dreams and quietly supports them, this is true in the case of my photography. I mentioned once in passing to my husband how I think I could really immerse myself in photography, I've always loved the art of photography and I think it may just be "my thing"; my husband being the good partner that he is took this as a sign. You see I had dedicated the last 4 years of my life to our children, I had quit a fantastic job working for a great company so that I could be at home full time with our children, it was important to both myself and my husband that I was there on a full time basis for our children. I'm not going to lie, this was a tough transition for me, but over the years I have learned to love being a full time mom, and my husband has always appreciated the decision that I made, but he recognized that something was missing (even when I didn't realize I was missing something).
So without my knowledge my husband bought me a DSLR camera, and so my photography journey began. He has encouraged me in my classes, helped me study, in fact he may actually know just as much about F-stops, shutter speeds and ISO than most experienced photographers.
This to me is what a true partner is, my husband has no real interest in photography, but he will silently listen to me ramble on and on about what lens I desire next, about a shot that I couldn't quite master, he'll drive me down abandoned dirt roads in Saskatchewan and he'll bite his tongue when instead of taking the time to enjoy a peaceful moment I run for my camera. Below are two images of SOMEONE I LOVE....with my whole heart!
