Where and How to Get i-n-s-p-i-r-e-d

I see you have a bad case of photography block.

But don't worry, I have just the thing:

inspiration.

But where can you find this so called "inspiration?"

It can come from things as normal as pencils,

to things as strange as purple, chocolate chip pancakes.

( which by the way, are amazing. )

A lot of times though, when we really need a eureka moment, it just won't show!

Here are a couple ways and places you could try!

♦ tumblr. Of course you could try instagram and google, but for me, the hipster's mind is much more creative than a bunch of people with cameras ya know? Just browse around some pretty pictures and I'm sure you'll find a light-bulb or two.

♦ let your imagination go wild. The first thing that comes to my head when I hear imagination is Alice in Wonderland. ( and Spongebob of course ;D ) Seriously though, she did have quite an imagination; talking flowers, red-painted white roses, and butter that could fly! If you take a crayon for example, you would try to find all sorts of ways to use it, besides coloring. In a flash your imagination will spark.

♦ have fun! Sing weird lyrics in the shower, dance around in your room, or talk to your cat! You'll have fun doing it and realize you are a lot more creative than you thought. But for it to work, it all has to be spontaneous and at the moment, or else the fun will turn into a random rehearsal.

♦ don't think about it. This option is more for people that aren't in a huge rush for inspiration. If you just relax and look at life without pressuring it to squeeze out some ideas, I'm sure they will follow up, one after another.

♦ experiment. Take pictures of random things, ( but don't necessarily post it on instagram, we have plenty of people that do that already... ) take them in different angles, and replace them for different uses! Like turning a tennis racket into a.... car! You'll find connections to your inner sparkle and come up with loads of stuff.

♦ go on an adventure. Without my good friend Kylee, ( aka @teenagedreamer ) I don't think I ever would have been to this point in my photography. I had a serious photography block, and she gave me this exact advice, she told me to go out and do a photoshoot in my backyard., and after that I was a new person. At first I had no idea what I was going to do, but then it all just came to me in a whirl wind.

Now I'm not saying that these work 100% of the time,

but trying them won't hurt!

Tell me how it goes!
