It’s always interesting at the end of a year to look back and reflect on where you’ve been, and where you’re going to go next in the new year. Often I think about what I’ve achieved, and what goals I’ve attained, or missed. But this year I decided to take a slightly different tack and looked back at the images I shot instead. Which ones really spoke to me? Which ones am I most proud of? Which ones point to the direction I want to keep going in? It’s no surprise that the majority of these fall under personal work or are new things I was trying out. They aren’t perfect, but they all point towards some sort of growth, which is why I like them. So, here are my favourites, and my thoughts behind them.

Top 10 Talents Photographers Don’t Know They Have

Sometimes the phone rings and someone asks you to go photograph a floor.  Sometimes they will even agree to pay you a pretty decent chunk of change to go do it.

No models, no makeup, no wardrobe, no lighting – just a floor.

My first reaction is usually something like “I’m not a floor photographer.”

But then I remember that people who own big buildings with floors often have money, and I figure income is better than no income, so I agree to go photograph a floor.

Which brings me to the question: Why would anyone go out of their way to find a floor photographer and pay them a healthy sum of money to go out and take what I consider to be natural light snapshots of a floor?

The answer is that as photographers, we have developed some considerable talents that many of us take for granted on a regular basis.
