In order to build up a good photography project and be consistent in the outcomes, we might want to keep a journal where we can write down all the stages of the project, starting from good research, which will help us to support our idea. Keeping track of the improvements will guide us to reach our goals and it’s a useful strategy to gain confidence. The best way to be conscious of our achievements is to take a look at the first pages of a journal and then compare them to the final pages. This is also a useful strategy when we want to build a good photographic portfolio. This was one of the most useful things I’ve learnt in college and helped me to really improve my editing skills.

Now I want to know more about you…

Would you consider using a journal to work on a new project? Why/why not?
