THE BIG IDEAS

Prioritize Connection, Not Just Technique: Photography is more than settings—your emotional connection to a scene makes your images compelling and memorable to viewers.Light Is Everything: Striking light can elevate even mundane subjects. Focus on light first, allowing it to guide your choice of composition and subject matter.Think Like a Viewer: Your photos are a form of communication. Always ask yourself what story or feeling you want the viewer to experience when they see your image.Grow Through Practice and Reflection: Improvement comes from intentional practice, making mistakes, reviewing your work, and learning what does and doesn’t resonate visually.
