I am super curious: what are your questions about photography? Is there something you always wanted to know about taking photos?

(Either in front of or behind the camera.)

What excites you about photography? Or what makes you feel nervous and resistant?

Maybe I can help. I have taken over 500,000 photos of humans and have learned a lot over the years.

If you are brave enough to ask a question, I promise I will send you a DM with my best answer.

PS: I’m not saying I know everything photography-related, but I have learned a ton and will likely have something helpful for you.

There are a lot of humans sharing wisdom online; exponentially more than ever before.

It’s easy to regurgitate ideas that already exist.

Sometimes regurgitation is a necessary step to finding your own voice. I made a video on this last week called The Art of Copying Art.

This week I am sort of obsessed with a different frame of thinking.

—> Is there something that only I can teach?

—> Is there a video that only I can make?

—> Is there a story that only I can share?

Maybe the answer is: no, nothing is original. But before I land on that belief, I’d like to try something else.

I’m curious, what comes up for you when reflecting on these questions?

If you’re up for it, share below or send me a DM.

Big LOVE,

There is power in pushing through, but there is also power in letting go.

How do you personally know when it’s time to let go of something, someone, some idea, some belief, etc?
