How do you pick 1 Photograph out of 100′s of Photographs?

The other day someone asked: How do you pick 1 Photograph out of 100′s of Photographs? Which is something I had to do daily for my 365 Project. This was definitely one of the hardest things about my 365 project. When I had days where I came back with 100′s of photographs, how was I going [...]

Do You Want To Improve Your Photography?

I recently bought a book called, The 4-Hour Body. If you haven’t read it, I definitely recommend it. Today I was reading it, and had some thoughts, which prompted me to write this. One part of the book which stuck out, was a chapter about people not doing anything. The book discusses people taking on something new, with [...]

It is almost a month since my 365 Project ended, but it is finally here… For the last few weeks I have been working tirelessly to create a book containing all 365 photographs. Some of you have emailed me, asking me “will you be putting your project into a book?” and the answer is, yes! [...]
