Hi,

I always loved visual storytelling and feel i had a good eye. Used to shoot film at one point. Then took a long hiatus and started like shooting infrequently using mostly iphones. That became more frequent to the point i rented out an XT5 for a trip and just enjoyed the whole experience of a single purpose device. I took the plunge into a mirrorless system with the new Nikon Z6III.

Started putting together a curated page just to capture the learning journey.

Though the current focus is learning i would love to do or be in a space like what Bourdain did (not at the scale of that amazing human being). Something about capturing experiences and people in a place be it with stills or video just tugs a soul. If i can get paid doing that (just enough money), i can see that as being my life’s purpose.

Is it too early to think about that sorta specialization? Is there been a scope with something like that? What do i even do to hone my skills to see if that is possible?

These are all questions keeping me up. Appreciate communities perspective. Your responses and critiques are most welcome as i pursue this magnificent skill.
