Camera Position 29 : Where Are You From?
Where do creative ideas come from? How do we figure out what’s the most interesting thing to photograph? Using the photographs and ideas of photographer and writer Wright Morris (1910-1998), I explore the notion of mining your past and your passions to find your subject.
This was my favorite podcast so far. As a beginning photographer, I often get clouded with so many different styles and suggestions at once that sometimes I lose my real point of view. It really helps to just take a moment and think about who you are, where you’ve come from, and what you’re feeling. It’s really a process of looking in as well as looking out through the viewfinder.

Joseph… really like this:
“It’s really a process of looking in as well as looking out through the viewfinder.”
I think I might steal that!
It really is all about trying to figure out what it is that you care about and making photographs that convey that interest.
Thanks!
