#437 In today's episode of the podcast, I chat with Portrait Photographer Michelle Tricca about her journey as a photographer and the inspiration she found in creating impactful art, which not only transformed her career but her life. You'll discover the importance of intention, personal projects, helping others, and finding fulfillment through your photography.

THE BIG IDEAS

• Intention: Set clear intentions for your photography, whether it's for personal projects or commercial work, to align your passion with your output.
• Meaningful Projects: Pursue personal projects and assignments that deeply resonate with you, allowing you to create work that has a meaningful impact.
• Impactful Art: Learn to make art accessible to everyone, especially to those who may not have the means to experience traditional art venues.
• Quality Over Quantity: Emphasize the significance of choosing the strongest images over flooding your portfolio with numerous, mediocre shots.
• Balancing Work and Passion: Discover how to balance commercial photography with personal projects that fulfill your soul, leading to a more rewarding photography career.
