Photography, by its very nature, brings awareness to the present moment
Photography as Meditation (PM) is a contemplative and creative process that, when practiced consistently, will increase self-awareness and reduce anxiety, leading to joy, fulfillment, and a deeper connection to yourself and those around you.
The Six Tenets of Photography as Meditation
When employing The Six Tenets of Photography as Meditation, you lock into presence and enter a state of flow. You will inevitably slow your nervous system, shut out the chattering mind, and unleash your creative genius. Let's go!
I
Explore without expectation
Replace the limited experience of expectations with the unlimited intention to explore.
II
Observe with curiosity
Gain new perspective through the power of asking questions, let your intuition answer through our cameras. The camera is an extension of you.
III
Employ all 5 senses
Consciously engage each of our senses in order to heighten awareness and root ourselves in the present moment.
IV
Revere light / acknowledge shadow
Recognizing light as energy. It's the conscious perception of light that allows us to dissolve time.
V
Enter the zone / Go with the flow
Our bodies and subject are now in sync. Feel the connection and don't question the ease. You deserve this!
VI
Give thanks
You will inevitably feel gratitude, give thanks. The photograph is the expression. It is the expression of gratitude that locks the experience into our memories and inspires these feelings to surface in other moments of our life.
