Freundeee checkt ihr eigentlich wie geil das neue Objektmaskentool in Premiere von ist? So Effekte wie in dem Video sind damit wirklich soo so easy umsetzbar, falls ihr damit noch nicht rumgespielt habt, probiert das unbedingt mal aus. Und wenn ihr schonmal dabei seid, könnt ihr euch in der Beta Version das neue Color Grading Tool angucken. Das ist glaube ich das Tool worüber ich mich bei allen Neuerrungen der letzten Jahre am aller meisten gefreut hab. Jeder der lange mit Premiere arbeitet wird das fühlen. Viel spaß euch beim ausprobieren! *ad

Since I hit 30, I obviously had to start running. Of course.
And because I can’t just let a hobby be a hobby, I also had to do a running shoot in Cape Town 🤓

Never done that before, but it was sooo much fun.
Big thanks to my breezys and for stepping in front of the camera, and shoutout to and for the support.

Guess I’m officially available for running shoots now 🌝

The past months have been wild. Big jobs, lots of travel, great results, amazing new clients who want exactly what I love to shoot. On paper, everything was there. Everything that was supposed to make me happy.

Somewhere along the way I started believing every photo needed a purpose. If I picked up a camera, it had to be portfolio worthy. Styling, hair and makeup, a clear concept, a team. Otherwise it felt pointless.

But that mindset made me shoot less and less. Creating turned into planning, coordinating, waiting. And slowly, without really noticing, I stopped having fun.

At the beginning of this year in Cape Town it finally hit me. Maybe I just needed to go back to how it all started. Just me and a model. No team, no client, no pressure, no concept. Just walking around, talking, enjoying the afternoon and taking photos.

So I texted Caro, explained the idea, asked if she was down. She was. We had the nicest afternoon, got some really cool shots, I had so much fun doing what I do again, and afterwards I felt genuinely, deeply happy.

What’s the takeaway? Yes, portfolio work matters. Yes, teams are often necessary for the best results. Yes, big jobs are important. But if you only create from external pressure, you lose the thing that made you start in the first place. Sometimes you just need to go back to that to keep the intrinsic motivation alive.

If you’ve been feeling similar, and I know I’m not the only one, maybe give this a try too.
