Looking at new work

One of the best pieces of advice I received from a professor at BU was to always remember to keep looking at new work, to constantly be looking at work other people are creating as a means to inspire yourself. As I continue my career as a photographer this is a piece of advice I keep coming back to over and over and find that it always helps if I feel like I'm in a slump. There's nothing like looking at an amazing photograph or other work of art to inspire you to get out there and make your own. This past spring I took a trip to DC with my roommate and we spent the entire time wandering through art museums. It was incredibly refreshing and reminded me once again how important it is to take time for these things.
