In this video, I'm sharing 11 Professional Tips to help you get the most out of your photography when you keep returning to the same location.
Last week, I went on a week-long photography roadtrip to Scotland. First stop, Raatray lighthouse. It's an incredible spot.
It's an amazing location, and I absolutely love it for so many reasons. But here's the thing, I've already photographed there twice before, so, is it really worth going back? spoiler alert, yes it most definitely is!
I'm a big fan of returning to the same place. Honestly, I think you should go back as often as you want. The odds of capturing the exact same shots are highly unlikely. The weather, the light and lots of other conditions are likely to be different, will factor in that.
If you've been putting off a return visit because you're worried about taking the same photos, this video is definitely for you.
Don't skip the 11th tip, it's by far the most important.
