Join Kim Grant as she speaks with contemplative photographer Paul Sanders. Paul began his photography career as a news photographer. He shares how, despite achieving everything he'd dreamt of in his career, he was left feeling unfulfilled and battling mental and physical health issues. Since then he has been on a journey of self discovery, resulting in him adopting a more mindful and contemplative approach to his photography. Paul's words are very thought provoking and may change how you see and engage with your photography moving forwards. Topics CoveredJourney into photographyWorking in news photography Feeling empty after getting his dream jobLosing sight of who he wasTrying to be a landscape photographer Battling his mental health Photographing what brings him beauty Finding his soul through photographyThe exhaustion of not being yourselfDeveloping genuine relationshipsThe strength of being vulnerableThe language around photographyPhotography and gratitude Being still and listening to your heartThe transience of our subjects Collaborating with our subjects Learning to give more Getting to know ourselves Talking and listening to our subjects Practicing seeing Letting go of attachment to material thingsThe feeling you get when seeing your image in printConnect with PaulWebsite: https://www.discoverstill.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discover_still/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/discoverstill/---Website: https://www.photographicconnections.com/5 Senses Activation: https://www.photographicconnections.com/five-senses-activationImmersive Photography Weekends in Scotland:https://www.photographicconnections.com/photographyweekendsFollow the journeyInstagram: http:/www.instagram.com/photographicconnectionsFollow Kim's photography journey and offeringsYouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@kimgrantphotographyInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/kimgrantphotographyMusic by Mark RobinsonSong: A Thousand LifetimesWebsite: http:/www.markrobinsonmusic.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MarkRobinsonMusic
