In this episode of The MOOD Podcast, I sit down with photographer, writer, and mentor Wesley Verhoeve for a grounded conversation about photography process, confidence, and learning how to make meaningful work without waiting for permission.
We talk about why so many photographers struggle with self-doubt, why overthinking stalls creative progress, and how showing your work and sharing your process can demystify photography and make growth feel possible again. Wesley reflects on his approach to learning photography through participation, not perfection, and explains how confidence is built by doing, not by being 'ready'.
We also explore the philosophy and process behind Wesley’s photo books 'NOTICE' and 'NOTICE Journal Vol. 1', including how routine, attention, and slowing down shaped both bodies of work.
In this conversation, we cover:
- Why process matters more than talent in photography
- Why photographers often hate their own work
- How overthinking blocks creative momentum
- Where to start when photography feels overwhelming
- Showing your work as a way to build confidence
- The role of community, feedback, and shared growth in photography
- Making photo books and long-term personal projects
