After taking a short summer break, I’m finally back out with the camera for my first landscape photography shoot in a while. In this video, I take you behind the scenes on location, share how it feels to return after time away, and talk through my process of finding creative flow again.
Taking breaks from photography can actually help recharge creativity — but it’s always a bit daunting to pick up the camera again. Hopefully this video inspires you to head out, enjoy the landscape, and rediscover your own passion for photography.
📸 What you’ll see in this video:
My first shoot after a photography break
Composition and location choices
Thoughts on creativity and flow in landscape photography
Final images from the session
