Writing about your work

Yes I know what you mean and can think of some people in other professions than photograph,y who have an ego the size of the Empire State building, but very little talent to match.

I think you can be talented and still fall into that trap.

And it often is a trap that keeps people from evolving, because when you describe yourself as "something" people don't want to see you change from that something.
 
Currently I am working with a friend who advocates strongly that if you intend to photograph with purpose, you need to be able to reduce that purpose to a clear, written plan before you take the camera out.

I hope that doesn't rub off on you, Matt. I wouldn't want to have to write up a clear concise plan the next time we go out shooting!

Andrew:

I'll bring along the write-up that I have right now, just in case any of the potential shots that day fit into that write-up's project .
