Let life flow towards you
Serendipity will take over. Don’t worry if you miss a shot. Photo opportunity is literally everywhere. Just start looking with child-like eyes. Be more curious.
Make the camera your slave
No more camera gear. No more camera settings. Just start shooting in automatic mode with the compact digital camera technology. You don’t need to learn “photography” anymore.
Just skip the learning phase?
Never think about photography projects or external goals
Don’t talk to me about galleries, zines, social media, etc.

Barefoot shoes allow you to walk with intention
Maybe they make you a better photographer? Slowing down and feeling the surfaces around me has been a huge game changer for me.

Photograph with repetition
Make more photos of the same thing in repetition. When you remove the viewfinder and explore, you open yourself up to more possibilities of what a photograph can manifest to be.
