WRITTEN AND SHOT ON iPHONE BY: STEVE HOLLOWAY

As a commercial photographer, I worked from shot lists to turn someone else’s ideas into images. Retiring gave me the freedom to reimagine how to tell a story.

Point of View chronicles that re-imagining and offers some perspective on shooting and telling a story in today’s digital workflow with 23 how to guides and 21 step by step process deep dives. 

These 5-10 minute reads could change how you shoot everyday. It’s one simple idea and three skills I use every time I pick up a camera.
