We are kicking things back off this year with a solo pod, recapping 2021. Recovering what was a crazy and difficult year for creatives, some highlights from the conversations with fellow photographers both on and off the pod. So kick back with your notepad, ready to storm 2022.

What I talk about

Finding your own personal style and creativity

To stand out from the crowd you need to stop trying to fit in

Curate your work to curate the work you want to shoot

You can’t cheat time to build style and skill

Being easier on yourself as a new photographer

Stop comparing yourself to other photographers

Habits throughout your day outside of your business are directly mirrored in your business

The power of unplugging and active movement

Reducing distractions from your own mind

Pivoting your business - how to move forward and adapt

What’s next for Feather & Finch

Look to the future and map out where you want to be

Invest in yourself and invest in your business

My biggest takeaway of 2021

2021 was a massive wake up call for many photographers. What it highlighted to me is the value and essential nature of investing in yourself. A shiny new lens or laptop might give you a momentary one up in your everyday working, but getting a mentor, taking time off, going on holiday with your family, going to a workshop have life-long benefits. No matter how challenging the photography climate gets if you are strong individually nothing can hold you back.
