10 Rules To Live By

Lomography is a wonderful concept devoted to analog photography.  They provide great info and inspiration.  Best of all they sell unique photographic equipment and specialty films to aid in the pursuit of the happy accident.  Not mired by the need for perfection, Lomography celebrates the unexpected and unusual.


They have created 10 rules to help anyone understand the aim of Lomography.  These rules actually apply regardless of your equipment.

Take your camera everywhere you go

Use it any time – day and night

Lomography is not an interference in your life, but part of it

Try the shot from the hip

Approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible

Don’t think (william firebrace)

Be fast

You don’t have to know beforehand what you captured on film

Afterwards either

Don’t worry about any rules

Now I have to figure out how to incorporate this in my professional work.
