Today, Luna & I take a trip into the forest to capture the last of the autumn colour. During the video, I share some profound advice that I was given during a photography workshop when I first turned pro, advice that ended up saving my career.

I've been watching a show called The Voice. In a nut shell, super star singers pick teams and then coach these teams through the competition. One of the things that they all teach is connecting to the song the contest is singing on a personal level. I think in a way you're saying the same thing and it's great advice. Subscribed. Thanks!

To quote a well known bard, "To thine own self be true." Applies to many things, photography, included.

I really like how you take us with you on a photo expedition, share your thought process behind the photos, share your experience, and the heart behind it all.

My last outing was dismal but can't wait to go out again. Always learning.

Great film Ian, doesn't seem that long since we were in Barton Seagrave and you were just down the road! Hope you're enjoying West Wales as much as we are North Yorkshire! Wish you and your family a fantastic xmas! Your flour legged friend certainly seems to be enjoying life! Cheers Tony.

I really quite enjoy when a photographer, such as yourself, shares their more complex shots and thoughts, especially when they clearly love what they do. I feel like some of your photos really speak to me in a language I am only beginning to understand. They require a lingering contemplation. more of a scroll, pause... and stop! Thanks. My kindest regards to you Ian.

Ian, I received my copy of your Zine today. The shipping to the USA was fast and trouble-free. You did a nice job and this was a great way to put together a collection of beautiful photos. I must get over to Wales soon. Not only to see the natural beauty and historic castles, but also because my Father's mother was a Griffith and many of my Aunts married into other Welsh immigrant families. Love your work.

I love the reminder about "shooting for yourself". I'm one of those who've been a photographer for a lot of years, but don't seem to settle in to a genre. I love portraits, and I also love landscapes. I think the pure enjoyment of photography draws me to portraiture, while my strong introverted self loves the experience of great nature and landscape photography. I'm old enough and been shooting long enough that I've given up on trying to please others. I do now days tend to shoot for myself, and I am always delighted to find people who enjoy and appreciate my style. I just can't get disciplined enough to focus on the business end of things. I get some local word of mouth work and that keeps me just barely going, but I do need to do more of the work "stuff". Ughh...

Yet again some excellent advice. It is also amazing how you manage to find a stunning shot in a landscape that to a cursory view appears fairly bland. You really are a woodland photographer "par excellence" and I am really enjoying your videos.

Great video! I love the way you share your adventures and knowledge with us along with your settings for each shot which really helps me. Luna was sure trying to get some big sticks, lol.

I really like your philosophy mate it's about learning isn't it I've learnt a lot I'm in that stage of being semi professional. I do professional work but don't do it full-time and to be honest where I live mate in Australia. It's only a small place and I don't think there's enough work here to be a full-time professional photographer, but I'm okay with that.. I have a well-paid day job and I still enjoy that job as well and I only do that four days a week, leaving me lots of time for Photography projects and eventually I may even cut that back to 3 days a week. I'm loving life with balance. There's definitely many things I've learned becoming into the professional space and that's about networking. This year I sold a local calendar and I sold 500 calendars which is an amazing achievement. I made the effort to meet every person that received their calendar except for the mail order ones obviously so I got to know my customer base this time was valuable in the last six weeks I've sold like 20 large prints to those same customers who bought calendars. I actually don't have a website and it's funny because in Australia people just don't use them. I do need one probably more to look professional than anything else and I'm in the process of building one at the moment. I always appreciate your advice. I have done some work around how to promote social media wise and what to do, and what not to do, and I've learnt the algorithm quite well as well

Thanks for all the useful videos. It's a great time to be learning about photography with pros like yourself giving viewers information that simply can't be found in a classroom.

Great video as always. Been a creative rut. This helps.

Thanks Ian! I love shooting landscape but I am not a paid professional. I am retired and enjoy not being tethered to someone else’s expectations so I can make a living. I enjoy people photos but prefer candid over posed. I think it shows the personality more. Knowing the person raises the awareness of that person and therefore better prepared to capture the peak expression of their personality.
