Swimming not Drifting
As the world changes around us, we need to decide if we are ready for change too.
Don't Jump
A friend of mine was thinking of jumping ship recently, sending overboard his dreams of professional photography in favour of other challenges and loves. His experience gave me pause to consider why we take photos at all, and what can better motivate our creative work.
Photography is My Family
It’s not that I don’t have time for friends and family, it's just that photography IS my family.

Talent is not enough
What hurdles are in your path to becoming the best photographer you can be? What opportunities exist for you to get over those hurdles? When is the right time to make the jump? Are you helping to make someone else’s day a little bit better?
