Tips & Tricks
The three questions professional photographers ask

As photographers, we walk around seeing the world in a different way to other people. Something catches our eye and triggers our interest. We decide to lift our cameras and take a shot. A photographer with a professional approach will ask themselves several questions before lifting their camera.
Three key questions I always ask myself are:
- What specifically in the scene caught my eye?
- Is it really worth photographing?
- How can I make a stronger image to communicate what’s important to me?
Curiosity and self-critical dissatisfaction are vital drivers in the creative process. Complacency is the enemy of great photography. Keep asking questions, keep working for better answers, hold a passion for seeking perfection, and you’ll take better images.
