🗽 And not everyone lives in a big hub like New York, where opportunities to connect and find community are plenty. 

Early-career photographers have reached out as they look to break into the photojournalism industry… often frustrated by the lack of accountability that could keep them going, and not many options to get personalized feedback.

How do you get editors’ attention?

2 keys to that: 

🗝 Personal projects. Understanding how to build a well-thought-out visual story, and doing it ethically, with a meaningful & unique point of view. 

🗝 Community. People you can brainstorm and bounce ideas with, who can hold you accountable and keep you motivated.

Where are you in your storytelling journey? 

What helps you stay the course?
