Today we’d like to introduce you to Darielle Bush.
Darielle, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
Photography has always been a love of mine. I started off taking pictures of friends and family, nature, or whatever caught my attention. As I became more familiar with DSLR cameras and its settings, I began to learn more about the technical aspects of photography, such as exposure, composition, and lighting. Which then led me to purchasing my very first camera!
As I continued to develop my skills and build my portfolio, I began to pursue professional opportunities working as a freelance photographer.
Over the years of growing, learning, and getting better at my skills, I developed The Creator’s Corner!
We all face challenges, but looking back, would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The road was NEVER smooth! Because I am a very gifted individual, I was all over the place with ideas. I had to narrow down what it was that I actually wanted to do!
I started a Company for clothing, which transitioned into a skincare brand while also being a photographer.
It wasn’t until I asked myself what do you really want to focus on. While I still managed to take pictures, I birthed The Creator’s Corner, which allows me to have an umbrella of everything I am.
In my mind, I thought my close friends/family would help with the exposure of my business, but it wasn’t until I started to push my business that I realized real support comes from people you have never meet that’s rooting you make it!
Oh and let’s not talk about the CONSISTENCY and COMMITMENT it takes even when the clientele is not coming in. You have to be willing to keep going and not quit when business is slow!
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am an entrepreneur, photographer, and video editor that loves to capture you in your most authentic state! I love capturing and creating memories that can later be looked!
Who else deserves credit – have you had mentors, supporters, cheerleaders, advocates, clients or teammates that have played a big role in your success or the success of the business? If so – who are they and what role did they plan / how did they help.
First, shout out to God who literally guides me through EVERYTHING, without Him there would be no me!
To my mom who literally does whatever she can to assist me in business, by any means necessary! Whatever I need she’s there to assist!
To my Pastor, Welton Smith, THANK YOU SIR for every prayer, push, and encouragement! Greatness and Excellence is all that he allows to flow from me! If it’s mediocre, he’s going to tell me and be on my head until excellence is produced! Thank you for not giving up on me and taking a chance with me!
And to every person who push and encourage me through social media thank you, y’all rock with the kid and I’m grateful!
