Inside The Mind - Tessi Seokolo
Turkey, Austria, South Africa, France, Holland, is quite a lot of places for a person only 23 years old to have said he has actively lived in. One thing i get a lot from people is that i am living many of their dreams or that many wish they could trade places with me. Although i do acknowledge having resided in all of these places it had given me a unique perspective on a lot of things many people donât. However there is a distinction iâd like to make, there is a massive difference between simply traveling to all these places and living in all of them. Because from where i stand, its the biggest blessing but also the biggest challenge that i will carry with me for the rest of my life. I guess not having a âhomeâ is an unconscionable concept to most people, spending your childhood in one place, your formative years in another and pre-adult life in another really stuns your development as a person and i am an example of that. It isnât all negative though, being all over the place gives me a higher empathetic capacity for different behaviors than most people do, however it molds you into a person that isnât exactly the most sociable.
Breaking Out Of Your Comfort Zone - Courtney Gunter
What's some advice that you can pass along to inspire some other females to let go and break out of their comfort zone?
I think the most important thing is not being afraid to network with other creatives and professionals. Message anyone in the industry even if itâs just to grab a coffee and learn about other peopleâs journey. It will help you find you own way when you realize how similar our paths all are.
5 Minutes With â Oreste Mercado
What got you interested in the kind of photography and content you produce?
I do not really classify myself as just a photographer since I also do graphic design. My interest in graphic design came about around my sophomore year in high school. I wanted to make a banner for my friend's YouTube channel. I never opened up Photoshop before that so I was completely clueless.
The Gift of Prophecy
So much love for all the support you show to us and the UG Fam! Start us off by telling us a little about yourself and how you decided on the name Prophecy?

CATCHING UP WITH - MARTIN MOORE
HOW'S IT GOING MAN?! IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG! HOPE ALL IS WELL ON YOUR END. SO CATCH US UP! WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON IN YOUR WORLD? HOW'S THE "LIFE OF CREATIVE" BEEN?
Iâve been crazy busy over the past year!

âFind Your Voiceâ By : Takoda Patterson
I know thatâs probably a weird thing to say when it comes to photography but think about it for a second. What does your body of work say about you as a artist? Does your work say anything and if not, do you want it to?
Stuck In A Box or Stuck In Your Head?
Every now and then you will wake up and feel like everything that youâve done up to this point has been for nothing. That youâve been working and working towards the life that you want and havenât got any closer than you were when you first started the journey. Those mornings are the hardest ones to get through and some of us donât make it through in the ways that weâd like to.

Pedro Espronceda: "Not really a photographer, more of an Artist."
[Remmy.] So I see in your twitter bio you have "Not really a photographer" which kind of led me to the Interview title hahaâŚ
[Pedro E.] Haha it's kinds weird.. I feel like a âphotographerâ is more of a certified college student who took classes and with a paper that labels them as a âphotographer.â
I consider myself more of an artistâŚ

Sofia Azarpira: This is L.A. but it's no "City of Angels"
[Q] How do you or have you been setting yourself apart from what I like to call the âweekend photographersââŚ
[SOFIA.] I donât really look at photography as a competition. I try and stay clear of those types of creatives who like that. If you want to make a name for yourself I think interacting with other creatives is the way to go.
