Take A Break
Such good advice from Eric Kim:
If you’re bored of photography, don’t feel inspiration, or feeling lost– take a break. Discover new artistic avenues, and replenish your creative fields.
Feeling like you have to take a photo every single day? Don’t.
This runs counter to a lot of advice out there. And there’s the idea of a 365 project, which Kim says often ends up feeling like a chore.
I’ve felt the pressure first-hand, and the lack of gumption to get out there and shoot—especially after my big portrait project last fall—so I took some time off. I’m taking breaks from Instagram here and there, too.
The kicker to getting over the guilt of taking a break. That’s what I’ve learned to accept lately.
Why feel bad about not doing something that’s totally voluntary anyway?
