10 Tips for Staying Motivated as a Photographer

from The Beginner Photography Podcast · host Raymond Hatfield

#318 I have not picked up my camera in more than a month and now that lack of momentum has stopped me from continuing to shoot. Thats unacceptable if I wish to become the type of photographer I want to be. So in this episode I share 10 motivational photography tips to help you (and me) to pick back up the camera and get to work!#1: You dont live in a magical location. Get over it#2: Give yourself permission to shoot aimlessly with no end goal#3: Start fresh with a new folder on your computer of the photographer who you are now#4: Capture the mundane parts of everyday life (Start every day taking a photo of your coffee)#5: Shoot in JPG to remove the burden of having to edit your photos after you shoot#6: Go for a walk. The more youre out, the more youll see interesting things to capture. #7: Consume less, Create more. Delete Instagram and Facebook off your phone. Share your photos with CloudSpot.io - http://deliverphotos.com/ #8: Listen to music when shooting to distract your brain while you focus on photography. I listen to Lush Lofi and Brain Food playlists on Spotify#9: Set your camera to shoot in Black and White rather than edit the photo later. This will help you to see better compositions and focus on moment.#10: If you have multiple cameras, sell one and buy a photo book. A photo book will inspire you to shoot in just 3-4 pages. Something scrolling instagram for an hour cant even do. Sign up for your free CloudSpot Account today at www.DeliverPhotos.com Sign up for your free CloudSpot Account today at www.DeliverPhotos.comConnect with Raymond! Go from Confused to Confident behind the camera with The Ultimate Photography Education Bundle - https://beginnerphotopod.com/bundleJoin the free Beginner Photography Podcast Community at https://beginnerphotopod.com/groupGrab your free camera setting cheatsheet - https://perfectcamerasettings.com/Thanks for listening & keep shooting!
