Hello everyone,
Welcome to my blog, where I ditch the constant PR person nagging about every word I write and just write what I want to. I intend to write about things that inspire me as a business person and as a photographer. And to keep it interesting I will complain about a lot of the hacks walking around this town calling themselves photographers. I will tell you the secrets of becoming a commercial photographer and bring you along as I work and play in Phoenix, Arizona.
The first secret is to love what you do. I certainly love photography and it dominates my thinking in everything I do. I am constantly thinking about the light and how I will shoot the subjects that interest me. Lately I am obsessed with taking simple things like eggs or the ghetto car wash and seeing if I can create something interesting out of them. It is always an exercise in seeing and my personal work has it’s foundation in this idea and thanks to twitter and Scoble I know what to call what I have been doing for the last eight years– photowalking. A good image no matter the subject must first be visually interesting and the only way to develop that skill is to practice observing. Especially the simple things.
Heya!
Just found your site thru the refocus group before I added you to twitter. Loooking nice and clean as well as simple w/ the WP site / blog. Doing what you love is key caring will show in your work as well.
