“You never know until you try” are wise words that ring true to me…

From humble beginnings in the golf industry, twice relocating overseas in pursuit of career growth, to turbulent attempts at building startup businesses. The outcome has been outstanding success and catastrophic failure, but I'd regret not giving it a go.

Which brings me to today…

I’m super energized to pursue a new endeavor as a Freelance Commercial Photographer – a passion project that has been organically taking shape beneath the surface for some time. While I’m not one to toot my own horn very often, please check out www.philipjhatton.com. I’m a work in progress and happy with this starting point.

There’s a reality to earning a living as a solopreneur: the road ahead is unlikely to be straight and smooth, but I’ll give it my best shot, and sharing with my network is step one. You’re going to see me focus on sports and outdoor imagery, with the goal of inspiring and collaborating with local businesses.

I’ll be ever so grateful for likes, follows, referrals, or recommendations. On that note, special thanks go to Kevin Murray – your generous advice and words of encouragement made a huge impression. I’ll try to make you proud!

Expect to hear (and see) a lot more from me soon. And good luck to anyone else who's starting something new this year. I'd love to connect.
