I’m trying to change.
I’ve always prided myself on being exacting and quick with my photographs, but it’s lead to some unhealthy thinking. I was always hedging and playing it safe. Prudence is good, but I siloed myself into taking the same images over and over again.
I recognize I have a very specific lighting and weighting to my images. That’s me, and that’s not going anywhere — but I’m starting to think a layer deeper on narrative. It’s a much more intimate process, and it takes way more time, but I’m -really- enjoying the thoughtfulness behind it. I’m starting to feel fulfilled again.
My mind still races, and I still get to do problem solving on the fly — but now my heart doesn’t have to explode in the process. This is good.
… so thanks to Sarah for spending time and helping me play and bringing ALL OF THE ENERGY.
