I’m NOT passionate about photography.
Let’s celebrate World Photography Day by talking about my relationship with photography… Yeah, you read that correctly. I’m not passionate about photography.
I don’t pick up my camera because I love shooting. I pick up my camera because I’m chasing something. Something I don’t find every time. Something I’m always looking for. Emotions.
Just like a gold seeker isn’t passionate about sorting rocks, but about finding gold, I hate spending hours sorting and editing photos (and that’s why I mostly shoot at 5fps 😂).
But when I go out to shoot surfing on a big swell day, or any other action, I’m there to find a gem. And the gems are some of these photos.
That’s the only reason I shoot. I’m addicted to the emotions sports give me, whether I’m watching on TV or standing right in front of the action.
Photography is just my way of chasing that feeling.
