Diary of a Landscape Photographer | Entry 4

It’s happened again. A sudden rush of creative energy just hit me out of nowhere. I’ve spent the last three hours working; writing this, updating all of the products in one of my stores with print and canvas information, adding new limited edition fine art prints, updating categories for the fine art prints, I even enabled a new members section to my site after getting lost in a world of legal jargon, returns & privacy policies and terms of service, all of which I have now added. It’s been very productive evening in the world of Brad Carr Photography. Talking of which, if you need to contact me, it is now brad@bradcarrphotography.co.uk because, you know, I’m professional and all that.

Coming up in my little world, I have an exciting photoshoot for a carpentry website over the next few weeks. My first major project and so I have been busy brainstorming and creating a mood board for what is going to be a perfect test for me and my skills. Think vintage, black and white, natural window light, dark and moody tones and you’ll be on the same page as me. I’m really looking forward to this one.

I also have a couple of talks in the next few weeks with some business advisors because I suppose I probably should do this all properly and avoid any unwanted knocks at the door.

There are also some plans to work with more humans moving forward - I have a portrait and lifestyle page now up and running again over on Instagram, where I’ll be sharing some other work that I pick up. I figured that I might have a better chance of getting paid from people than I do from trees. The deeper I get into photography, the more I want to learn and try my hand at, this bug just will not die.

I thought it would be rude not to share a couple of images from this weeks photography adventures outdoors. The light really shone through for me on both of these occasions.
