Buying a new camera won't make your photography better. But asking the right questions might. We live in a world obsessed with the latest gear, convinced that the next upgrade will finally unlock our creative potential. But when we look at the history of photography—from Magnum masters like Henri Cartier-Bresson to modern icons like Alec Soth—we see a different truth: the best photos are often made with cheap, limited, or outdated equipment.

Do you need better gear, or do you need better problems? In this video, we explore why limitations are liberating and why the camera you have right now is more than enough. Subscribe to Tatiana Hopper on YouTube for more photography content:

We analyze how masters like Daido Moriyama used "imperfect" cameras to capture emotion, and how Alex Webb built complex color compositions without relying on the latest tech. Learn how to stop chasing marketing trends and start chasing the "better problems" that actually challenge your creative vision.

(And yes... I filmed this entire video on an iPhone to accidentally prove my point.)
