Deserted Island

A beach on a deserted island can be paradise. It's a long way away from the chaotic lives we know as normal.

There's something  to be said about simplicity. Keeping things simple can help one keep their sanity. As photographers, striving for simplicity in our images is something we always try to do.

The business part of photography can get complex and very time-consuming. Figuring out a way to simplify is very important. I love protocol. I know that you can't always do business the same way with everyone all the time, but having parameters around you, your products and clients will help simplify things.

As a photographer realizing your strengths and weaknesses will allow you to know what you can do and what someone else might do better for you and your business. I feel this alone is a key factor for a lot of successful photographers. Business doesn't need to be more difficult that it already is, keep it simple.

Today's photographers are expected to wear so many hats that it's almost impossible to succeed unless you simplify. And while you're at it, get some help and don't' end up on a Deserted Island.
