This blog isn’t really for any one else, I've written it for me. Every time I start to feel down I must come here and read this blog post. I know it help me clear my mind of everything negative.
With that lets begin:
Since moving I've found myself struggling to shoot. Most days I head out for a long walk around Liverpool and a lot of the time the outcome is the same. I’m feed up sitting in a coffeehouse somewhere feeling depressed and angry at myself.
I've written that it could be because I'm somewhere new and I feel overwhelmed at living in a city.
Please don't get me wrong. I love living in Liverpool, Elizabeth and I have never been happier, the city has given us so much. We're out most days, even if its only a walk along the river which is so relaxing.
I feel like I'm carrying my camera around for nothing as most days I get one or two photos and I must come to understand that this isn’t a bad thing. It’s different living in city as to visiting one just for a few hours.
I had to look at Matt Hall to fully understand what was happening. Matt never worries about struggling he just shoots, never over thinking it. And I need to start doing the same I must force myself to enjoy the place where I’m living and to take each day as it comes, I must also stop worrying if I don’t take lots of photos and to be happy with the ones I take.
My personal life has gotten so much better since moving to Liverpool and all I need to do is sort my photography life out.
Maybe its because I’m not around people like Malt, Craig and Cam. These guys always inspired me, five minutes on the streets with them and I was firing.
Each and every time I start to feel lost, I must start to write down how I feel and maybe I can pin down whats going on.
