Sunset Seaside Portrait

Watch sunset with me? The other day I was talking to another creator that said if they post a close up portrait of their face and not a farther away shot of the back of their head their post doesn’t perform well. The crazy thing to me in that statement is I have the same thing happen if I post farther away shots of the back of my head and not close portrait of my face. It’s never reaaaally bothered me but I will say I didn’t like the feeling of looking at these shots and thinking “dang I didn’t get a close shot of my face so this set isn’t gonna do well IF I post it.” Then I started editing and fell even more in love with the shots, learned some new things in Lightroom, and played around with some things I normally don’t and I’m officially obsessed with these photos. I can’t believe I ever thought I wouldn’t post them. Here’s your reminder that you started creating for you and to hold onto that. Don’t get lost with creating for the algorithm.
