Master The Art Of Doing YOU!!!!

If a beautician copies another beauticians style they're going to call that beautician a copycat. But if that beautician learns the method and develop his or hers own style then they'll be a judge for the quality of work or the service they provide. The art of photography is a contradiction in itself as a business. They'll tell you to develop your own style at the same time they tell you "study the greats" But I asked myself what makes them great? It's quite evident that some of the best photographers ever we're not always the wealthiest of us. At the same time some of the wealthiest photographers are not the best image makers. Albeit they were probably better business people. Study the method, not the man.  This holds true for barbers, chefs and countless other occupations in the service department. Me myself I'm entering that creative stamp part of my career. Lighting and editing is becoming second nature to me. I want people to be able to look at a image I created and know that's a Mechanical Eye photo. Putting that unique touch on my photography is where I'm at right now. I don't worry about the next photographer, I'm too busy doing me ~ The Mechanical Eye
