At work, I often have to take the role of an extrovert - speaking my mind in front of full rooms of people. On my own time, I prefer being an introvert - spending time alone is needed for me to fuel my creativity. Photography, is a continuous balance beam of these 2 extremes of life. Working in the pit of a show, it works best for me to remain introverted - completely concentrated on what is going on around me. But when I deal with clients in the studio, I have to let myself become more open to those around me to achieve the best work and exude more extroverted qualities. Because of this constant shift, I need to take moments away from trying to create images, just to let my mind breathe. And this weekend I chose to breathe in a hammock, in the Canadian wilderness. It doesn't get better than that.
