a new photography frontier?

I've had a new sudden desire to get back to photography lately. And I think it's kinda weird but I think I'm more into the layout of it than the actual photography.

I don't know - I've been having a lot of fun just experimenting with different styles lately, that apply texts (fonts and hard-hitting one-word captions) to fit the whole filter aesthetic.

I know for sure, I definitely want to try out new styles - like some more 70s-all-American-baseball-boy kinda trope. I don't know my mom took out an old bulky radio earlier that got me started on kinda messing with that idea. And I know for sure there were a lot of other themes I've been meaning to try out, mostly regarding album covers. I've been having such a *crush on studying album covers because those things man- they hold so much meaning in an image. I've been totally crushing over BTS albums works, Hixtape, Lana del Rey and her 50s nostalgic theme, Lorde, American Teen (Khalid), ofc my baby girl T-Swizzle. I've been kinda drawn into studying the art of album production as a whole I guess because of the way an album captures a whole entire time era of the artist if not their soul.

So anyway, I guess I'm saying.. it's extremely difficult for me to stick to one theme for a feed or blog or instagram or whatever. because I'm constantly trying to find new styles to experiment with. Y'know it's like I wanna be aestheticcc® buuuuuut I keep changing my themes. I don't know// anyway, I'm thinking of just being myself (huhuhu) for now and experiment as I go along. See which ones stick. It's fun.

This was a little fun challenge I took on at Costco - quite spontaneously to say the least. SO if you wanna do it too, it's really fun. 10/10 recommend. Go somewhere that is a little.. photography-stranger and just mess around and see what you can produce. I especially recommend doing it with some other people so you guys can kinda trade-off with each other's photography style. Like for me and my sister, we just took turns choosing a random corner in Costco and switched being ""models"'. Then we got to see each other's 'visions' for each spot and just be like "hey i never thought of doing that" or "cool angle.. so unconventional"
