I Want To Be A Better Photographer 

While waiting for a Lightroom export to finish, I was going through some old content, updating tags and such, when I found this video. It was originally a just for Patreon video; My original plan was to refine my thoughts in this video and film something for a larger audience. But after rewatching it I thought that a lot of people might find what I say here relatable. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. This one wasn't planned, so there will still be a new video this week. I may just push it back a day or two.

I just started as a a event photographer on Curaçao. And I must say out of all people who explain things about event photography you are the best! I really appreciate your videos. Thank you for all the knowledge you give.

I am the same during events, I don't interact with guests too much and instead just stay focused on the job. Then I see John Branch videos and he is dancing with the guests and catching great intimate shots. I definitely don't see myself doing that but finding the right balance is difficult for me.

THANK YOU FOR THIS. I have faced so many challenges in pursuing photography- many of which I realized were personal challenges. Watching this helps!

Love your content Mik! I am a starting events photographer, and your videos are helping me improve my business. Thank you for sharing your experiences so openly so we can be ready to handle the challenges ahead. For me, this is very brave 🙌 More power, sir!

As a street photographer it’s often hard to even define what to work on, or how to improve it. I find it easy to fall into ruts though. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Fantastic video and something I do daily is to reflect upon life. Totally leads to growth and you have added to my daily reflection. Thank you.

I’ve taken a pause and realized I could be much more well off if I prioritized my health and wealth. It also helps knowing your whys 1) Intention (why I do it) and 2) Motivation (why I want to keep doing it). I thank you for being you and making this video! 🙏

Thank you, Sir!

I don't think your appearance is off-putting, I think you're very cute. 🙂
