Why You Should Ditch Society’s Expectations & Amphibious Photography with @formerlyhomelessphotographer

Today's episode features a discussion with Matt Sullivan (@formerlyhomelessphotographer), an amphibious photographer with scroll stopping and truly unique images. In his early 20's, Matt made a bold decision to live out of his car in L.A in an effort to reduce his living expenses so that he could afford to travel and visit the places he wanted to with his camera instead of sinking his money on rent. In this episode some, but not all, of the topics we talk about are:Not building your life based on the traditions of societyWhy certain sacrifices make complete sense in the pursuit of passionAmphibious and underwater photography, both fresh water and saltThe importance of expanding our own lens of the world, and using our values and images to do the same for others without being pushyYou can find a link to Matt's website here: https://www.9milesnorth.com/If you're tuning in on Spotify, there is an exciting feature that allows you to actively engage with us.
