Getting started
Light changes faster than you can change lenses. Look at the edges of the frame before pressing the shutter. Shoot more, share less, and review honestly.
Waiting for the right person to walk into the frame is most of the job. Good photographs often happen right after you thought you were done.
What worked
Shoot more, share less, and review honestly. The best camera is the one you actually carry. I deleted ninety percent of the roll and kept the one that felt right. Underexpose a little and the highlights will thank you.
- Expose for the highlights
- Shoot at the edges of the day
- Carry one lens for a week
- Review photos the next day
