Brooke Shaden... Stunning art from what seem likes a stunning being! Love listening to her talk about what she loves. Inspiring

brooke is my mentor. a true master. love you brooke!

I absolutely love listening to you. I feel more creatively open than ever because of your inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and uniqueness.

Fantastic presentation, strong work, precise ideas, This girl has everithing. Thanks a lot for your work and inspiration

I would add to what Brooke said about inspiration that (in my experience) inspiration comes from taking action. I just try something and ideas come to me and the thing or scene i start off shooting can inspire me to do or change something in another shoot. That item or scene might even go through several changes before it's done but it all starts (for me) with action and experimentation. Sometimes, an idea might not be usable on one image but it might be perfect for another and you never know what you might stumble upon until you start playing. There is so much great information in this video, keep 'em coming!

One of my favorite CreativeLive videos by far!

I enjoy all the things you said... and for sure, inspiration have to be pushed, created, I get that. But the last sentence, about “it's my art, taked or leave it” almost make me jump from joy and freedom. Thank you very much for sharing your unique, and something weird ideas. You're unique.

Again.....you're awesome Brooke. Thank you!

I love this 00's boho look

I love you so much! You aspire me to be inspired. Thank you. Your photos are the types of photos that I want to do.

Thanks so much for this vid! exactly what i needed! Thank you Brooke

Wow... It felt like this presentation was speaking directly to my soul. Amazing presentation.

You are a treasure chest of valuable information! So grateful for your advice and wisdom. I feel incredibly inspired after watching this. I tend to shoot in my home or your typical beautiful outdoor setting. I'm excited to apply your tips. Thank you.

That was a very strong presentation. I love the positive message and how everything was broken down. Good job.

A couple of things jumped in my mind watching this video: Critiquing art is all about applying the rules. Creating art is all about breaking them. Art is the incomplete invitation to see the world through the artist's view. I also have the ability to use 1980's to 1990's computer technology. With the categories she specifies, I could write software which randomly selects one item from each list. Then, I constantly add items to the list. An item added months ago combined with one added today could actually be the perfect match.

Prolly one of the best videos I've seen online

Thank you! Suddenly I got an idea! And by the way, I really love you photos. 👍

I love so much! Thanks Brooke Shaden!

what a wonderful person. great video and inspired

Wonderfully inspiring, I'm so glad i came across you 🌺

she seems awesome. That smile.

I'm not in love with all your images. Not that I am a better photographer, but a very different approach. But I love to see how enthusiastic you are and what a good teacher you are.

Amazing video thanks Brooke x

this was extremely useful! I was so stuck and confused with my ideas but now I know how to sort them out ^_^

Great video very inspirational, the photo you had up at 36.48 had me thinking Wuthering Heights

We have the same necklace/watch! I have worn it for almost a year now!

A wonderful and delicious gulp of Inspiration! Thanks a bunch!

Honest and very inspirational !

this is what called a good inspiration video ever i have seen brfore

JUST AMAZING so inspiring =)

I love her ability to find magic in everyday objects. What a beautiful way to live ♥ xo Ximena (he-mena)

Well it's pretty easy to realize that you need things to inspire you when working as an artist. I find that I constantly have to look at other images created by other artists and continually go to gallery exhibitions or experiment otherwise my passion seems to die. At first I was worried, but I just realized that I need things to spark my interest.

Great video, and the information presented by Brooke enabled me to bring my thoughts of how to describe what I photograph together where I can comfortably and concisely describe my work. The content on my Biography here on 500px.com/Steaphany/about is the result. Thank you, and Lets go play with some Photons !

Ahahah!... Total new approach to photography. Hippie Photo Style. Smoke a dope, let Gaia get in your heart and shoot. I Like it though... Good tips.

Oh hey! Have you heard about - Pycane DSLR Camera Tricks (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my cousin shot some cool images with it.

Omg I'm scared of whales too!

I photograph butterflies because we are being "cleansed" from the planet by progress.

simply I like to call it as the women empowerment .

this should be called how to find inspiration as a photomanipulator. photographers really dont do that much photoshopping

So I take it that Photographers don't need to find inspiration either. Creativity is creativity. Inspiration is inspiration. It's a modular skill. It applies to all artists whatever their field of expression. To say that photographers really don't do that much photoshopping is an empty statement. Photoshop is not a tool that you use to 'just' correct or adjust images. You use it to do things that you could not practically achieve behind the lense. If a photographer prizes their work on their need to not correct images sounds more like elitism. By the way, no disrespect. Just thought I would point something out.

all i'm saying is,after a certain amount of editing it stops being photography and starts becoming another medium,digital art ,photomanipulation. and that's still an art form just isn't photography anymore

This is a really interesting subject--another angle to consider is that Brooke Shaden considers herself a Fine Art Photographer. That's likely why she combines a lot of Photoshop magic. +Doru Bogdan +muzkore

It's strange how you make that statement, now almost a year ago, we learn that Steve McCurry has his work manipulated in photoshop, so heavily I believe your statement is true.

My Dad is a professional photographer and has been for 50 years. He got his Masters PPA back in the 80's. He was in demand by advertising clients because he shot excellent transparencies. Dad still works as a commercial photographer and at 72 years of age he LOVES photoshop and is very good at it! His images are bought by people who just love his work! He is the definition of someone who's work keeps evolving. He loves what he does to this very day and has inspired me to become a photographer and proud photoshopper.

why do you keep naming the videos with her name, like she was some photo ahthority, this girl is just a vlogger talking shop, her name does not matter

Agreed. I can't get with this. I have very harsh words, but what's the point. I don't want to be a hater. I once picked up a book at the bookstore by this person, with the same theme (inspiration), thinking I would learn something. Unfortunately, the images, while novel at first, were all the same type in the end, and the book did not do anything for me to learn about inspiration beyond what I already know. The feeling I get (and it may be unfair to Brooke, and terribly harsh) is that it smells of an instagrammer who suddenly discovered real photography isn't done with a phonecam and filters.

I'm stopping my subscription of CreativeLive because you start cooperating with such cliche home photographers presenting them with their names like professionals, what's happended to the CreativeLive...

you look like a victorian godess

Are you a trust fund baby? I really just want to know. Do you have to care about your future? It matters.

I think the truth issue behind the question is : It is not so easy to make money on that kind of stuff. You want to live at a photographer, you need to do weddings, follow the standards rules and walk the road that a lot of other famous photographers did. I think it's a valid question... Maybe not on the tone used, but still valid.

Why is she teaching when her work looks like its done by a 15 year old.

This is sooo sad! Certainly a case of the blind leading the blind...
