You don’t have to be crazy to be a Photographer but it helps! | Emerson Bailey Photography | Costa B

Any of you that know me on a personal level probably know that normal is a rarity and i love to embrace weirdness with every fibre of my being. I’ve never been one to follow the crowd in whatever sense i will alway do it my way which may not always be the best thing but it’s worked for me so far.
If you have been on me with a shoot or you know someone who has, they will tell you that at some point or another i will suggest some crazy wacky idea that doesn’t make sense and then i try my best to explain it before making a fool out of myself trying to demonstrate. I’m not going to lie some times these ideas are as stupid as they sound and end up staying on my hard drive. However sometimes just sometimes they result in something amazing, something no one else saw and it doesn’t make sense until you see it.
I guess in the end it goes with following your gut. And sometimes you will make a fool of yourself but other times it will be amazing and as long as you keep getting back up you will have that amazing moment where embracing that crazy idea really paid off.
I rarely like photos of myself but i thought this image demonstrated my peculiarity quite well. Photo Credit goes to my good friend Joseph Lathey from Last Blue Apple Media
Embrace your crazy side!
Emerson
