The Photographer Mindset

Building Confidence in Your Photography with Reps & Risk


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore how taking creative risks and embracing repetition can transform your photography journey. From shifting focus to storytelling over quantity, to navigating new challenges like two-camera video interviews, we discuss the importance of stepping outside your comfort zone to grow. You'll hear personal stories about overcoming self-doubt, learning to trust your instincts, and finding the balance between passion and mastery. This conversation is perfect for photographers ready to build confidence, refine their craft, and take their work to the next level.
