Make Photos Which are a Direct Copy of Your Soul

The only photos worth shooting are the ones which directly show your soul. Photos that have your soul embedded into them!

I’ve been thinking about “soul photography” a lot; the ultimate apex of photography as a form of artistic self-expression and apotheosis.

Essentially the basic idea is simple:

Strive to make photos which are a direct copy of your soul.

This means, create images that have your soul in them!

  1. Shoot with your soul
  2. Only photograph what your soul cares about
  3. Reveal your own soul to the viewer through your images, and how you see, perceive, and experience the world.
  4. Show your internal reality via the external images you create!
