A man wearing glasses, a black jacket, a gray shirt, and a gray cap, looking directly at the camera against a plain, dark background.

Patrick Fore is a commercial photographer, writer, and lifelong creative trying to make honest work in a world that prefers shortcuts. He hosts The Terrible Photographer Podcast, where he talks about identity, failure, voice, and the strange process of keeping your creative life alive.

Meet the Author

Most photography books are written by masters showing off their trophies. They tell you to do what they do.

I am not a guru. I am the guy who failed at this so you don't have to.

I spent years obsessing over gear, comparing myself to others, and feeling like a fraud. I realized that "getting good" had nothing to do with the lens I was using and everything to do with how I saw the world.

This book contains 0% of my portfolio and 100% of my scars. It’s the book I wish I had for a long time.

Thank you for reading,
– Patrick
