Struggling with Inspiration and Focus
- Rating:

I photograph people and places nearly every day. But, since we found out we were pregnant, my eye has been sloppy at best and I can't seem to get my creative groove on.
I've had other mom photographer friends who said they struggled during pregnancy as well.
Any tips for staying on point?
Thanks so much!

Yeah...pregnancy really makes a mess of your focus on everything! At least you'll have the perfect subject in a few months!
In the mean time, check out JPG Magazine...sign up for their emails...you can get feedback on your shots, AND they give you a "theme of the week" that challenges you to take weird pictures. Example: This week, photograph 3 things in a mirror facing the light"...it teaches you some neat tricks, and inspires you to try something new!

Creativity is a funny thing. If you force it, it goes away. It needs to be free to grow. My recommendation is to explore another creative outlet. Do you write, draw, sing? Find some new magazines that spark your interest. I just got a bundle of 1966 LOOK magazines from the internet and my mind is buzzing- though they are old, they are great new ideas for me. Just have fun and you'll find you are inspired to new heights.
