In order to not lose it completely, I've made the choice to step away temporarily. I explain almost everything in this episode to the best of my abilities and I hope you enjoy. I'm not giving up on photography and I'm not quitting photography, this is just a part of the process and something I believe I will look back on with no regret.

Fail Fast, Forward & Often.

Being a self taught photographer and someone so passionate for their craft, not failing is almost a warning sign that you're not trying. I give a brief update on what I've been up to and a special thank you to Joseph Parry who was responsible for this podcast topic.

Motivation is a lot Like Depression.

In this episode, I completely open up a can of verbal vulnerability by being open about my short comings as a photographer, the times where doubt is the most common thought running through your head. I think by sharing my negative experiences and being completely transparent that it can hopefully help those too who are also going through a rough time, whether that's in life or through their creative passion.

I don't hold back one bit on this episode. Raw and unfiltered. Enjoy.

I wanted to break the no-post streak and just talk. The goal here was to put something out there in order to be consistent again. I touched on quite a few things from Self help to the biggest differences between planned and unplanned work. Lastly, I just wanted to touch briefly on some of the main differences between a professional and hobbyist photographers and how both offer positives and negatives if you have a passion for photography.
