definitely, when I'm out shooting I don't try to appeal to anyone, I shoot what I feel is a perfect photo. I follow others people leads I try to set myself apart by seeing things differently, thus resulting in photos that others may not have seen.
Yo I'm in film school right now and I agree with this guy so hard. People now a' days are all trying to appeal to the market which you gotta do sometimes for money, but that's not art. Art is just doing yourself and expressing yourself freely and if people like what you do then that's sick, but if not then so be it. Art isn't conforming to what people think is cool, it's being yourself.
... I feel a little homo after that speech. Fuck it, it's 2010 don't be scared.
Thanks Lewis for showing me that i could be a photographer too, im planning on taking a career in photography, thanks man, thanks dumbfoundead. I hope to become this famous,
dang man an here we thought that it was just hip hop being raped by the world but its more than that it photography its producing its a whole lot of things ...we need be proud of what we do not just make the standard
@ItsNnicholas That camera is a professionals dream. It is a Pentax Digital SLR Series. Couldnt tell you the model exactly. More than likely 18-55mm which can be used for quick stop motion, high-speed continuous shooting. Has to be above 10 megapixels at least w/ filter function for instant video edit.
I love your youtube channel, it's more than you just needing to be exposed you're about other people too and showing lifestyle and helping others. much respect.
J Lew! looking at your photos I can tell ALOT of young photographers get craaaaaaaaaaaaazy inspired from you.. cause I mean.. COME ON. your fucking awesome..
Mad respect for Jay L. I'm so damn sick of seeing rich little girls at my school walking around with $1000+ digital cameras taking the same fucking picture over and over and thinking that they're the shit for listening to indie music and shopping at thrift stores.
Sounds like some good advice in there, especially the part about just going out there and shooting, and not worrying about your equipment so much in the beginning.
