Whenever you see something that you want to photograph, it feels like an itch.

The secret to great photography? Just keep scratching your own itch.

Apply this to everything

This is a great principle not only in photography, but business, and life.

Some of the best businesses have been invented because the entrepreneur couldn’t find it themselves.

For me, when I started to shoot street photography, I couldn’t find many resources on how to shoot street photography. Therefore I started this blog on street photography, to scratch my own itch.

Even now, whenever I try to come up with ideas to write about, I try to write about what I’m personally interested in.

What is interesting to you?

In your photography, what do you like to photograph? Don’t worry whether others think your photos are interesting or not. Just photograph what is interesting to you.

Stay itchy,
Eric
