Finding our way as a photographer

Have you ever sat down and thought, “What kind of photographer am I?”

Well, early last year, I did just that and spent the last year exploring what I really enjoyed and sometimes, what I didn’t, to find out. Turns out, I really enjoy street photography as well as nature/flowing water photography. I spent a great deal of time walking the downtown area of Chattanooga TN looking for interesting photos of life as it is now. I also learned what kind of cameras I enjoy using as well, since I am getting older and having trouble seeing up close now, I have learned that the mirrorless camera with it’s EVF makes my life a lot easier while out shooting and that the dslr, while a very capable machine, isnt as easy for me to use, therefore less likely to go out with…

I have migrated pretty much to my trusty Fuji XT3 for most of my photography as of late and have added in a Nikon Z6 as well, I still have the D810 and it works just fine, but it is not as easy to use so I only get it out for certain things now a days. I still like the D810 for portrait shoots as well as wildlife photos as it has an amazing sensor and captures incredible detail. So for now, that is still a camera in my arsenal. For most of my “run n gun” stuff thought, it will be the XT3 / Z6 moving forward.

Expect my YouTube channel to be more of my exploits and as time goes on, it should slowly start to show the specialization that I am finding my way into with my photography. I hope you enjoy this trip as much as I do and will join my for it.

Until next time, get your camera out and go take a picture with it!
