“A specific vision, style, or point of view directed toward a particular passion or interest is our one true unique offering” — Susan Carr, The ASMP guide to new Markets in Photography by Alec Erlebacher

I came across this quote within one of my assigned readings. The overall article talked about how to make a living in a content saturated field such as photography. A difficult task considering now-a-days your not just competing against your peers within your profession, but also amateur photographers as well. The fact is there are many photographers out there that can produce high quality images. To separate yourself above the rest, you need both skill and a unique vision. A skill can be learned, but a unique vision is driven solely by your own natural curiosity.
