Rediscover Your Creativity: Photography Inspiration + $5

How do you get out of a creative dead-end and get a Photography Inspiration?

Being stuck in a rut is really annoying. There’s no way around it. When you’re in that dry spell, creating seems impossible. Sometimes it’s extremely discouraging. I hate it.

You know what I’m talking about. If you’re creative, you’re born to create. Creating is exciting, motivating, inspiring. It makes you hopeful of the next photograph, paragraph, or lyric. Because these moments of creating define who you are.

But if the light goes out. Or the motivation leaves you. You feel left alone, drained of a vital element of your personality. A sun without sunshine. A smile without spark.

Sometimes you need a little push. A push in the right direction. A little encouragement and advice to get those juices flowing again.

The Inspired Photographer is that little push to get you inspired. With these 20 ingenious tips, you’ll find new ways to seek inspiration and ignite your creativity. New ways to freshen up your photography and get the necessary photography inspiration

Learn to see all the inspiration around you. Reinvigorate your photography.

You’ve tried everything to boost your creativity. But let me ask you:

• Do you mediate to clear up your mind?
• Do you set strict deadlines that you can manage?
• Do you offer your skills to pro bono work?
• Do you breakdown impossibly large tasks into small doable tasks?
• Do you try to limit your gear on purpose?
• Do you read everyday for pleasure and knowledge?
• Do you write out your most tucked away feelings?

These methods are not lifehacks. Not methods you’ll find in some blog post or Buzzfeed. They’re fundamental – essential – methods that Nicole has used to climb out of her own dry spells. They come from learning what works.

They’re down-to-earth methods that you’ve probably never thought of. Or maybe forgot. Written in a style that’s immediately accessible (so you can learn them fast).

In fact, I appreciated this ebook so much. I even tried a couple of tips before writing this: Step #16 Unplug and Step Away from the Pixels and Step #4 Find Focus. I took a walk. Meditated.

I got out of my office. I took time for me. I got up and relaxed my mind. Thinking of nothing but what was happening around me. I absorbed the sights, smells, sounds of Downtown L.A.

But during that walk, I realized something really cool about this ebook. Something that makes you want to show it with everyone you know. This photography ebook is really a self-help book. Of the best kind.

All the links and resources in it are stuff that don’t really cost you anything. They are not big frightening steps. They’re small, intuitive, repeatable methods to help you re-ignite your photography.

They just feel right. Like exercise for the creative soul. Or warm scarf for a cold mind.

You’ll learn how to re-discover your own path. Seek inspiration wherever it may be. Treat your creative self like it should be treated. Understand that your unique mind needs fresh stimulation for growth.

Take a look at Nicole’s work. If these methods helped her. I know they’ll help you.

So what’s inside the ebook?

• How to approach tilting and perspective for children, wedding, couple/family portraits
• 20 Methods to finding Photography Inspiration from what’s around you
• Links to resources and software that’ll help improve your work

About the Author: Nicole S. Young

In her own words…

Hi! My name is Nicole and I currently live in the Bay Area of California. In the past I’ve lived in Portland, Seattle, Salt Lake City, Japan and Hawaii, and I grew up in Nebraska. In other words, I move a lot 🙂

I’m a full-time photographer and author, with four books published through Peachpit Press, two eBooks published through Craft&Vision and also one self-published title. My photography specialties are food and landscape, and I also create stock images for my portfolios over on iStockphoto and Getty Images.

I also have an online store, where I sell post-processing tools, such as preset, actions and textures, along with some of my own self-published eBooks, all at very affordable prices. To take a look, please head on over to the Nicolesy Store.

I love to teach, learn and share what I know through my blog, articles, podcasts, interviews, photography inspiration and training materials. I love Lightroom and Photoshop, and I’m an Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) in CS4/CS5/CS6. I also contribute regular video tips on Lightroom and Photoshop on the National Association of Photoshop Professionals and Photofocus websites, as well as have several articles in magazines such as Photoshop User and Lightroom Magazine.
