“I’ve said a million times that the best thing for a young photographer to do is to stay close to home. Start with your friends and family, the people who will put up with you. Discover what it means to be close to your work, to be intimate with a subject. Measure the difference between that and working with someone you don’t know as much about. Of course, there are many good photographs that have nothing to do with staying close to home and I guess what I’m saying, really, is that you should take pictures of something that has meaning for you.”
~Annie Leibovitz~
Many photographers begin their careers by photographing their families and friends. Perhaps this October weekend you’ll be inspired to photograph someone you love.
Happy Friday!
