Why shoot like everyone else, when you are a unique, idiosyncratic individual, with unique life experiences, different from everyone else?<\/p>\n

The world wants you to be vanilla. The world doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want you to stand out. The world wants to keep you in a box. The world doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want you to rebel.<\/p>\n

Why follow the masses of other photographers, and just photograph how they photograph? Why just shoot boring landscapes, pretty flowers, and cliche images, that aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t true to who you are?<\/p>\n

Shoot different.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What do you find interesting?<\/h2>\n

You should only photograph what you<\/em> find interesting, unique, and meaningful. You shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t photograph how other people are photographing.<\/p>\n

Follow your own heart, your intuition, and your own gut.<\/p>\n

Who are you?<\/h2>\n

Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be different for the sake of being different. Just be you.<\/p>\n

Shoot who you are, and ignore everybody else.<\/p>\n

Always,
\nEric<\/p>\n
