Goals

Was writing out my goals as a photographer to a friend in email today and this is what I came up with, #1 and #2 are far and above the most important.

1) Make photographs that speak to me, I should not compromise in these photographs. I should do work that I think is of value and not do something simply to be accepted/shown and sold.

2) Create a body of work that communicates a message that will inform and educate the viewer and hopefully lead to change that will help the subject of the photograph.


3) Have the work collected and shown by major galleries/museums around the world.
4) Have a high quality photography book/s made of the images.
5) Have the work shown in smaller galleries/magazines etc.
6) Have the work collected in private collections.
