The Boyder Show #13: Justin Muir, My favorite photographer

Justin Muir is a beast photographer and visual artist. He’s brilliant at making things beautiful.

(Here's his IG if you don't believe me...https://www.instagram.com/justinjamesmuir)

I admire his work and the way he carries himself as a human, so I asked him some questions.

Sometimes, I get intimidated by people like Justin. I see his work and I think - I can never do that. I look at where they are, rather than where they started. Everyone had to struggle to make their first dollar. Everyone who has “made it”, has to experiment with their first project. In this episode, Justin talks about how he got started, tips to help you get off the ground, the psychology of pricing projects, and the evolution of his photography style.

A couple moments to note:

The biggest misconception of when it comes to what it takes to be a professional photographer.
How to make your iPhone photos better.
The benefit of tricking people.
How he made a book with his photos by accident.
How to embrace uncertainty as a creative.
Practicing with your art with friends or bae.
