After spending a decade behind the camera, there are a lot of things I wish I would have understood earlier. Not just about gear or settings, but about how to actually build a sustainable creative career.
In this video, I share some of the lessons I learned the long way. Lessons about craft, relationships, confidence, trust, and what really leads to repeat work over time. These are the things that made the biggest difference for me once I stopped chasing trends and started focusing on becoming better at what I do and better to work with.
If you are a filmmaker, photographer, or any kind of creative trying to grow without burning out or constantly second guessing yourself, I think you will get something out of this.
When we learn together, we all get better.
