Are you a copycat? Should you copy other photographers and creators? Are every photos the same lately?

There's a lot of heat on the topic of every "picture looking the same" lately on the internet - at least on Instagram. And it is understandable - pictures travel 1Mx faster than before so "trends" will appear and disappear very quickly. Yes the question is still should you COPY other photographers and creators?
My opinion is that YES, you should... BUT only in certain cases:
1- To learn how to do something. Please copy copy copy - try to replicate, master the techniques!
2- To try to shoot differently.
3- If your client is requesting you to do a very similar shot - yet with differences it is understandable. Hard for certain shots to be "unique" or "original" - so much has already been done. Yet every shot will be different!
Videos I suggest watching around the topic:
- Jamie Windsor: Why YOUR IDEA'S NOT ORIGINAL (and what YOU can do about it)
- Peter McKinnon (he published 3hrs before I got that one online - super random - guess it's copy-cat Monday?): I AM NOT PETER MCKINNON
👉All of the gear that I use:
👉 LEARN how I became a photographer!
