In this episode “All The Time”
I’ve recently been told, a lot, that I always have a camera in my hand and I think about business, all the time! Then they say, I should put them down and have some fun. Do I, do we?

In this episode “Keep the Faith”
Photography in normal times can be a road of challenges. Just when you think you had a head of steam, something takes the wind out of your sails. And today, even more so. You just gotta remember to keep the faith.

Long before, a long time before I learned what FOMO stood for, I suffered from it! Suffer is the perfect word as I would sit in the office with my insides all tied in knots thinking about the photographs I was missing working at my desk and not being out shooting. In some instances, I knew exactly what I was missing. I would be fit to be tied behind my desk and not my camera. It went on for some time, like years, then, it all changed. I didn’t and don’t suffer from FOMO – fear of missing out … the photograph anymore. Might you be feeling that right about now? What changed for me that I don’t suffer from FOMO any longer?
I don’t actually remember the moment or an incident but all of a sudden I realized that I’m always missing out so everything was status quo. I mean, how many times was I standing behind the camera shooting and I missed the photograph? Wasn’t that the same end results as not being out behind the camera in the first place? It’s when this struck me that I realized that rather than concentrating on what I was missing when at my desk, I needed to concentrate on what I was missing those times I was at the camera. That’s when I started testing this, experimenting with that and making home time, failure and perfection time. I not only created so much of the content and supposed wisdom I can share today but the techniques I depend on in the field. Not missing the photo those treasured times when I’m at the camera still drives me and that might be worse. But I can say now, I don’t suffer FOMO.
In this episode “The Next Step”
It’s a constant photographic challenge, how to get better at it? You might be feeling a little inundated right now with life’s challenges but I have an idea how to circle things back to your creative side so you can take the next step.

Our neighborhood camera stories have been there for us and we’ve supported them all these years and right now, they still need us.
