on creative rest

For the last three weeks, I didn’t pick up my camera.

Not because I was stuck. Not because something was wrong. And not in that familiar spiral of trying to chase inspiration (we’ve all felt that).

I had just come off a stretch of high output — finishing a project, shooting consistently, moving through a lot of creative energy. Then I felt the natural pull to pause.

Not burnout. Not a rut. Just creative rest.
