Hi, my name is Odalys. My sister Glendy and I recently open a small multi wear clothing business named LYSDY. We were thinking to hire a professional photographer to take the pictures of our clothes, but a photographer is too expensive, so we decide that would be better if we take the picture instead of expending almost $1,000 every time we need a photographer. Now, which camera would be the best to make a professional looking fashion pictures??

I know dozens of people have said this before me, but I’m extremely intent on becoming a fashion designer. I’m currently thirteen years old (freshman in high school). Drawing comes extremely naturally to me (I’m taking AP studio art right now), and I don’t think that will be a problem. I’ve also started to make my own clothes and stuff; I know everyone says “just learn to sew and learn to draw” — is there anything else I can do? I’ve already written to a few designers, and I’m planning on doing an internship with one of them this summer. I’ve already started looking at schools as well, Parson’s being my number one choice.

Actually, one of my main problems right now is my parents. They’re both very traditional ASIAN parents, who are very disappointed that I don’t want to do something “meaningful” with my life and they think I’m wasting my high school education (I go to a VERY expensive private school). How can I convince them that this is a good thing?
