Doug Menuez in Editorial Photo:

“Show the work you want to get” …

… if you have chosen to show work other than the purist version of your creative vision then whatever jobs do come in will be based on that work.

… They are not challenging themselves creatively because they did not give themselves permission to be who they are as photographers in the first place. … But by defining what you show based on what you truly are and what you want to do, you create a self-selection process: you are not for everyone. You are different. Be courageous enough to show that you see in a way no one else does..

Holds true for anyone that creates, regardless of medium.

    True :) It's great then that we, if finding ourselves on the wrong side, can choose to climb over.
  • Maybe: but out West you can get shot for invading someone's property :)
