Description
Feeling creatively stifled?
The Mindful Photographer
is here to help. From artist, writer and mindfulness expert Sophie Horwath, this pocket-sized guide is filled with practical tips for a slow creative process and a contemplative approach to photography. Within these pages, you’ll be introduced to twenty concepts — from curiosity, compassion and cultural mindfulness to playfulness, gratitude and humility — which are all designed to help you reflect and take a more contemplative approach to your photographic process. Each concept is explored via insightful text from Horwath and accompanied by quotes, stories and anecdotes from a diverse collection of creatives and the works of both canonical and contemporary photographers. Also included are hands-on assignments and exercises, including meditation practices, ways to deal with fear and advice for practicing improvisational shooting techniques, which allow you to put the book’s ideas to use through your own lens. Both a mindful approach to photography and a photographic approach to meditation, this book is perfect for anyone seeking the more spiritual side of their creative endeavors.
