248: Why Beginners Take The Best Photos

This week I talk about how having a beginner’s mindset will set
you up best for success and continued growth in your photography
journey. I break down 4 tips that will help you stay as much of a
beginner as long as possible.


Tip 1: Do the Opposite


Go against what you’ve been told to try something new. Use a wide
angle lens and get close to your subject or use a telephoto lens
and get really far away so your subject is small in the frame.


Tip 2: Do what others won’t, to take photos like others can’t.


Last year I interviewed Shane Balkowitch photographers using an
almost 200-year-old method to capture images. He doesn’t do it
because it’s easy and because so few shoot wet plates he has
quickly made quite a name for himself.


Tip 3: Change Your Rythm


When you start to feel bored of your photos like you’re taking
the same photo over and over again producing the same images,
change up your style and allow yourself complete creative freedom
in your editing. I use many of the  52 Free Lightroom
Presets we offer to go crazy on an image just to see different
possibilities.


Tip 4: Share your Photos


Being open and sharing your image may feel scary but it’s the
best way to learn and grow from others who have come before you
to get valuable feedback.
