STAYING INTENTIONAL IN 2026

When Familiar Becomes Too Comfortable – Staying Intentional. This video is about staying alert before familiarity starts making decisions on our behalf. As 2025 comes to a close, I’m reflecting on my black and white photography from a place of intention. I’m proud of the work I’ve made. It’s been careful, honest, and deeply considered. And that’s exactly why taking this moment matters. When a way of working becomes familiar, it can remain productive and still begin to narrow. Not suddenly. Not dramatically. But enough that openness requires conscious attention instead of assumption. In this video, I explore: How familiarity gains influence even in disciplined creative work Why depth needs openness to stay alive over time What it means to stay intentional while things are going well How to enter a new year focused on direction, not reinvention This conversation isn’t just about photography. It applies to any work, or life phase, where experience is an asset, but attention still matters. If you’re heading into 2026 thinking less about resolutions and more about feeing orientated, this video is for you. I’d love to hear how this idea shows up in your own work.
