from Curious Notion · host Chris

In this episode, I’m joined by Oscar Montes, also known as O.M. Photography on Instagram. We dive into his journey of starting out as a photographer with no clear roadmap, and how he eventually found his own style through trial, mistakes, and consistency.Oscar opens up about the early struggles, the things he got wrong, and what he would do completely differently if he had to start from scratch today. We also get into the real conversations most creatives avoid. the business side of photography, building relationships, and what it actually takes to grow beyond just taking good photos.Sony vs Canon debate, talk about modeling as a photographer, and how being in front of the camera can change the way you shoot behind it.This is a raw, honest conversation about creativity, growth, and figuring things out as you go.If you’re a photographer, content creator, or just someone trying to build something from nothing this one’s for you.
