There are books, from all over the world, about how to “get-started,” with photography. There are books on how to “make-it” as a photographer. And there are even called “Photography For Dummies.”
There are books for every facet of photography, let alone any creative endeavor, however, what if I told you there was a photography book that not only taught you how to edit like a painter, but also how to achieve your potential as an artist.
Would that peak your curiosity?
Would it inspire you to pick it up?
It did for me.

If you want to create work that inspires people - you have to follow your heart.
If you want to influence others to become the best version of themselves, you have to follow your heart.
If you want to create artwork that influences people, you have to follow your heart.
Of all the topics Finn Beales could have addressed in the opening pages of his book, he chose to talk about following your heart.
