During the quiet season, as a wedding photographer, investing time in personal work, I think for me, is so important. It gives me the opportunity to explore new techniques, refine my skills, and nurture my creativity with no expectations. It allows me to experiment with different styles, locations, and post-processing methods, enhancing more artistic visions. Personal projects also serve as a refreshing, fun outlet, preventing burnout and reigniting my passion for photography. Here are a handful of photos from a foggy day in the Melbourne CBD, were I was focussing on black and white street photos with strong contrast. Enjoy.
