Tips, Tricks, and Gear
The biggest piece of advice I have, in regards to photography, is to not put yourself in a box. A lot of people are considered "portrait, landscape, or music photographers". I think that’s bullshit. Just get out there and do what YOU want to do. Make stuff you want to make, and it will resonate with the right people in time.
OWC Gear I Like
Personally my favorite product I use from OWC is the Envoy Pro FX drives. They are unbelievably fast, & super durable. Makes me feel safe to have my gear stored on them & fast enough to work directly off them!
Workflow
My workflow is pretty straight forward but can change a bit job to job. I typically shoot on Uncompressed Raw format directly to my OWC Atlas Pro Cards in camera. Upload cards to storage like my OWC Envoy Pro drive. Then I will use a program called Photo Mechanic to sort through and make selects. I then import those selects to Lightroom classic and do all my editing/exporting there. Sometimes I will take a second to touch photos up in Photoshop if I need to.
