Episode 07 - Find Your Unique Photography Style
In this episode, I delve a bit deeper into photographic style. How to see your own and how to develop it.
The deeper you delve into your unique perspective, your likes and dislikes, the more you’re likely to stand out. And standing out is how a photographer becomes known for their work.
In today's episode, I am talking to Patrick, a Toronto photographer who struggles a bit with being an introvert and a bit of a shy photographer. So we talk a bit about whether or not he should lean into that or try to change who he is. We also go through a lot of other mindset things like why you can't see your own style and how do you use other photographers more as inspiration rather than a reason to think to yourself "I'm not good enough."
