Do you ever feel that little impulse to take a shot that doesn’t make sense, and it pays off in the end? That little twinge of excitement informs a lot of today’s guest’s philosophies on photography and creativity, which he generously shares with us today.

Ross Harvey has been shooting weddings for over 8 years, and his career is founded in his research on happiness and creativity in psychology and philosophy. He was awarded Best Photographer in England in 2013 and 2014, and has been a judge for that competition since 2015. He’s UK’s Number 1 Fearless Photographer from 2013-2016, and was recently added to Harper's Bazaar’s list of Top Wedding Photographers in the World.

Today he talks to us about street photography, as well as his thoughts on intuition and following your excitement as an artist. We also discuss managing your mindset and emotional state and how that impacts your work. He talks about his experience at the ARC Experience last year and gives a couple of tips on branding and pricing from his upcoming talk at this year’s conference.

Have you brought street photography skills into your wedding photography work? Do you have any stories about following your creative impulses? Let us know in the comments on the episode page!

 

IN THIS EPISODE:

• The role of street photography in developing Ross’s creativity
• How to bring street photography skills into wedding photography work
• How to follow your intuition and align with your excitement as a photographer
• The importance of optimizing your mindset and “mind mechanics” in your photography
• Some tips on raising your rates

 

QUOTES:

“It’s easy to pick the technically best pictures, but they’re not always the best pictures because they might lack in emotion or substance.” 5:29

“Imperfections can actually lead to a style, which sets you out from everybody else.” 11:29

“Your excitement is like a compass, and it pulls you in a certain direction. And when you walk or run in that direction, life seems to just align itself, and you will also find yourself happy, because you’re doing something that you’re aligned with.” 13:07

“Every time I look back on my life, no matter what I’ve done, I can’t remember a single time that I’ve ever been let down by following my intuition. Not once.” 24:01

We've all heard the term ""Ken Burns Effect"", but do you know that this random effect will sometimes zoom into areas you don't want to zoom into? This tutorial will show you how to easily import images and give you complete control to pan, zoom, and travel across images to create customized dynamic slideshows that you can output to Blu-ray, DVD or any device. The ease and power of this tutorial comes from using custom presets for motion and effects in Premiere Pro CS5; a feature that many users tend to miss.
