If I asked, are you successful, what would your answer be? 

How do you define success?

In fact, as Creatives, how do we measure success? 

Success looks different for each one of us. 

It might look like a magazine feature.

It might be receiving an award.

It might look like working with Ottolenghi.

It might look like more followers on social media. 

As much as these milestones are pillars of success, as Creatives, it is incredibly hard to evaluate whether we are successful in the true sense. 

Our skills and style are continually evolving, we hit failures and roadblocks everyday so, are we successful? 

In this episode I’m talking to the award-winning food photographer, Reethika Singh, who in her signature genuine and humble way, shares her unique perspective on finding success as a creator. An outstanding food photographer, food blogger and content creator based in India, Reethika tells us that success is much bigger and not as complicated as we think. 

She shares her journey, how she navigates through challenges, what photographers should focus on to improve their craft, what changed for her when she won a prestigious award and who her main competition is (it may surprise you!).

There’s no one better than Reethika, who we regard as successful, to tell us how to measure and evaluate success to keep growing and finding joy in our craft. 

Success is defined as ‘the achieving of the results wanted or hoped for’ and these results differ from person to person. What sparks our joy might not be the same for another photographer. 

So, how do we see the bigger picture when it comes to success? How do we create success that leaves us feeling satisfied and secure as creators? 

Hear more from Reethika Singh and how she has achieved her version of success in food photography.
