Today, I tried to arrange my first gallery exhibition as a photography student. Not even my mother wants to come. FML

Keep striving for greatness my dear. If you're already at the point where you feel you're ready to have an exhibit, then you're already lightyears ahead.

Sometimes people try to seek approval from those closest to them. Gives them courage. In this case, Op's mom seemed to care less. Don't give up hope OP!

You can still use those negatives to develop a portrait.

One photographer to another- Try not to be too hurt by it. I mean yeah it SUCKS but it's how photography is. People pay SO much more attention to other arts and that's just how it is. My own mother got distracted by the painter's booth next to my booth when I did little showing. It's how it is.. :/

You could always post it on social media, and let people join. Your mom doesn't seem supportive. Good luck, I hope many guests show!

Or you guys could look past the grammatical errors and realize that this is one of the better-intended comments here.
