#23 Chanel G. : Where do you want to go?
Chanel is an Atlanta based photograph and UX Designer who encourages other artists to pursue their own creative path. This conversation was recorded in March 2020 during the Click | Away photography conference.
Moments to listen for:
You need to recharge just like everything in life - 7:27
"Some people think you have to go go go, but even the battery in your camera has to recharge. If your battery and your camera have to recharge, why do you think that you don't? You need to recharge just like everything in life. Everything goes through seasons. And I feel like we have to get more okay with saying this is the season of rest. This is the season where I need to sit back. This is a season for me to go. (...) There are seasons and you just need to be okay with what season you're at and embrace it as much as possible."
Establish a morning routine - 9:57
"During that time, something that really helped me was establishing a morning routine (...) I would wake up, I would make a cup of tea. I would stretch with this one song that really put me in a good space. I would read a Bible verse, I would journal I would write a positive affirmation, and then I would start my morning. It brought me so much peace during that time when things were so crazy."
You can do it bare bones - 21:40
"I don't want to shame anybody that has a lot of gear, because there's nothing wrong with that. It's just you don't need that to get started. Are there situations where you need more than a 50 mm? Of course. I'm not gonna be at a concert with my 50, or a sports event (...) obviously but to get started and to learn the basics, I really feel like you can do that with the bare bones. And then as you get more specialized you might need more stuff."
