This video really hit home with me. So often I compare myself to other photographers and how beautiful and clean their imagery is. But that's not necessarily who I am. I'm not a glossy photographer. I like things gritty and real. She says something towards the end of the video that made me feel good about what I do. Mary Ellen Mark says that magazines may be looking for someone really commercial, even if that's not who you are, if you feel like you must photograph...then you must. No matter what kind of photographer you are. If its in you, you must do it. That's at the core of why I do this, because its in me.
