324: Ricardo Da Cunha - Developing Guiding Principles

Creating personal work in our photography is harder than it sounds. One possible way to give us a path forward is to develop a set of guiding principles that help set the stage for our future work. On today's podcast episode, my guest, Ricardo Da Cunha, explains how this has helped him improve as a photographer. 

On this week's episode, we discuss:

• How Ricardo got into landscape photography.
• The role photography plays in Ricardo's day-to-day life.
• How his true passion for animal welfare intersects with his photography.
• How Ricardo goes about creating more personal work.
• Ricardo's goal with his photography.
• Why it is important for Ricardo to create images that are infused with a part of himself.

• The role collaborations have played in shaping his photography career.
• And a lot more!
