EP57 - Finding Artistic Freedom on Both Sides of the Lens -- with Blake Nelson
Manage episode 421274924 series 2937335
Today we have a truly inspiring creative joining us – Blake Nelson, a photographer, art director, digital creator, and model! Now, Blake's journey isn't your typical artist's path. He's worn many hats, from shooting five-figure weddings to collaborating with major brands like Calvin Klein and Armani in the heart of New York City.
This conversation dives deep into Blake's world. We'll explore: how a powerful realization about self-imposed limitations kickstarted his creative journey, juggling photography, art direction, and modeling, and how these diverse skills fuel each other, and how his modeling experience translates into creating a comfortable and confident space for his photography clients.
Additionally we'll chat about the challenges and triumphs of running a creative business, including hilarious (or maybe not-so-hilarious) moments when things went off script.
But most importantly, Blake will share valuable advice for aspiring photographers – how to overcome fear, carve your own path, and establish yourself in this dynamic field.
