We had the good fortune of connecting with Cameron Clarke and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cameron, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
You could give up right now and be moments away from what you really wanted to be.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am a photographer from Jersey City, NJ. I started photography when I got my first camera, Christmas of 2012. I got to where I am today by continuing to practice photography for the love of the craft. I can’t really say there were any other motivations or things that helped me get to this point besides that. I wouldn’t say it was easy to get to this point, but I wouldn’t say it was hard either. I have learned a lot and there have been some unfortunate and frustrating times, but my love for photography is so deep that I still enjoyed every part of the process. What I feel separates my work from others is my style of photography. I am able to give the experience to everyone that views my images, not just me and the subject(s). I am excited to continue to learn more about photography, produce work that I am proud of, and I am excited to see the impact I can make on the world because of my work.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would definitely take them to American Dream mall. You can find almost any and everything you are interested in there. I would also take them to NYC a lot as well considering it is less than 20 minutes away from me. There is more than enough things we can do in the city to entertain us for a week as well.

I’d like to dedicate my shoutout to my family. My parents and my close friends that have supported me along this entire journey.
