6 Ways to Kickstart Your Creativity In Photography

Photography Made Simple

27-02-2024 • 16 mins

I’ve always said that photography is a game of two halves - one side of our brain needs to focus on the technical aspects, such as our camera settings, where to focus, finding the light etc.  The other side needs to see the creative possibilities - the composition, angles, or unique twist we can stamp on our photos!

As photographers, it’s pretty common to focus more on the technical side, and don’t set aside some time for nurturing or practicing our creativity!

While learning the technical side is incredibly important (we need to know HOW to create the vision in our head into a photograph!) spending a wee bit of time nurturing our creativity can be rewarding too.

If you feel your creativity is a little lacking or you’re stuck in a rut, tune in to listen to today’s podcast where I’ve given you some ideas to kickstart your creative side!

So tune into today’s episode to learn:

  • Why keeping an idea journal can be beneficial, and what to look for when writing down ideas.

  • How limiting yourself can actually make you more creative!

  • Some ideas for photography projects you can do that will force you to be more creative.

  • A cheap and cheerful hack to use your existing lens in a different way

  • Editing ideas to get more creative without picking up your camera!
