The science is out there: Your cell phone is ruining your memory… but don’t worry, thinking like a photojournalist when you take pictures can change all that.
Ever gone vacationing to a foreign country or new state and had that feeling in your gut. You know the one, right? (No, not gut feelings from unpredictable local cuisine) That unique blend of excitement, mindfulness, unfamiliarity, and panic? Yeah, THAT’S it. It’s the experience of new sights, tastes and smells. It’s our primitive human brains trying to seek out novel situations (but also keep us just a little bit afraid, yet alive, in unfamiliar places).
Okay, so unless you've been living under a proverbial rock in the social media world, you've probably seen the news that Facebook, in an effort to redistribute attention on the platform, will be deemphasizing content from Brands in the News Feed. For the work that I've been doing and plan to do over the next weeks, months and years, it's the straw that broke the camel's back.
Coming out of a creative slump is no easy feat. But I regularly sing the praises of an organization that takes a sincere pride in bringing Creativity and insight to the masses — CreativeLive.
Well, after a bit of soul-searching and thinking, I’ve come to a realization — I’m in a funk of the photographic variety. Part less than typical level of freelance work, part multiple rejections on the application front, and maybe a little part dreary winter weather that seems to just…keep…stretching…on.
Well what a crazy stretch that was. Whether you’re feeling the Bern, stuck on Cruz Control, or playing the Trump card, this batch of photos will have something for you. (Even if you’re Kasich of the whole damn political process).
