What is your favorite part about being a photographer?
I love the freedom of being a photographer. I used to work a corporate job, and
hated having to work a traditional 40-hour work-week, from 9-5.
Even though I have a lot less financial security and no health care (only for
emergencies) working as a photographer- I love how I can wake up whenever I
want to, write about whatever I want on my blog, and let my natural curiosity and
passion lead my day.
I also love the traveling I am able to do through teaching my street photography
workshops. I love building connections with other street photographers from
halfway across the globe.
One thing I am trying to do constantly is build a sense of community, bringing likeminded and equally passionate photographers together.
Is there a subject that you would love to photograph in the future that you have
not already?
One subject I would like to document more of is luxury and materialism. I know a
lot of work on the subject has already been done (primarily by Martin Parr), but it
is still a personal subject that I find fascinating (and revolting) and want to explore
photographically.
