“Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art.”
In our modern connected society it's easy to get distracted by the constant stream of updates,
the cloud of marketing, and the flashy feeling of newness.
As a creative professional the need to be innovative is even more important than with a standard 9-5 career.
One of the many hats I wear is that of youth athletics photographer.
And I will readily admit its difficult for me, not in terms of technical ability, but in terms of actually being passionate about the work.
Simply put, I don't like sports, when I was young I had severe allergies and asthma, and when it was time for sports It was always something I ended up watching all the other kids have fun doing.
And one of the things I never want to do is to let monotony become my comfort zone.
Well, to combat burnout, I scheduled a shoot with a couple models to work on more creative ideas.
These are just a couple shots from that day to keep the creative juices flowing.
What do you do to keep from stagnating as a photographer?
