#and the amount of time i spend making jedi stuff isn't practical outside of that - and may not be sustainable for me in the long run either

Hello! I just wanted to say that I absolutely love all your Jedi photo mode pictures! It's been really cool to learn from you and your process. I had started to play around with the photo mode and I was mildly interested, but I understand it so much better after visiting your blog. I've tried to apply what I've learned and I think my photos have turned out SO much better, and I'm having so much more fun with it! Thanks for sharing all your beautiful pictures and tips!

I'm glad you're having more fun with photomode!! And glad to hear my tips have been helpful :) Earlier this week someone on Twitter said "I just wish Jedi Survivor had more longevity" and sure, we aren't adding any DLC or live service stuff to the base game. But I think virtual photography really extends the gameplay and allows you to capture your own experience as Cal Kestis. It's something unique to the Jedi series that other Star Wars shows/movies can't offer.

There's definitely a learning curve, and it helped me a lot to see other people's photos when I was first starting. Turns out most IRL lighting techniques actually work in this digital space (kudos to the Respawn developers!) and that's made a huge difference in my own work. Feel free to ask any specific questions and I'll try to explain best I can!
