Hi!
I’m curious about how many of you photographers write about your photos. I’ve got a specific reason for asking this.
Over the last few years my taste in what I photograph has changed quite a bit. I couldn’t find a thread through the images for quite a while, until I pulled a few out from a couple-month span and wrote about them. It was super useful for me, helping me realize what I was getting drawn to, and that in turn helped me focus my work going forward.
I’m curious if any of you write about your work too. Please tell me about it!
And please drop a link to the writing below if it’s public. I’d be down to give it a look.
Cheers!
Not about them in a self reflective way, but I do tend to do little projects and put together zines which are writing around them.
More like short photo essays.
I like this as it gives context and when I get them printed it becomes a nice momento or documentary piece.
