We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Bea Bogan. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Bea below.
Bea , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?
Fearless Expression is a creative endeavor I decided to explore after now being a full time photographer for about 3 three years. Photography has been my passion for over 10 years now, which has also allowed me to always be open to new creative concepts, content and connection that are presented to me.
Fearless Expression was created at a time in 2022 when I was really feeling uninspired with my photography craft and my business. I needed to find balance and another way to express my talents that was true to me. During this tough time, I asked myself: “ If I could do anything in the world to make me happy, what would I do?” Fearless Expression was created to help me bring to light more things I love doing. I love photography, nature, food, travel and adventures.
Fearless Expression mission to help me build connections with people , trying new adventures and also connecting with other creators and talented people, to eventually collaborate.
Bea , love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
My craft is being a photographer and a creator in general! I consider myself to be a very creative person and I am open to exploring it. Whether it is photography, graphic design, videography, painting, dancing, blogging, I take my time to express myself through it all.
Everything created with Fearless Expression was created by myself. From logo, editing, marketing, video ideas; I have used my craft to bring these ideas to life! Being able to bring these ideas to life on my own is what I am most proud of.
Self-teaching myself how to do certain skills is definitely a journey that has helped me grow my photography business and currently Fearless Expression. I believe self-teaching is what sets me apart. It’s definitely not easy but with focus, heart, passion, hard work, support and patience with myself, I am overcoming many challenges.
I want people to know that Fearless Expression is here to bring people together. I want to travel the world with Fearless Expression and collaborate with many different people! Fearless Expression is a brand I design to allow myself to be fearless when it comes to expressing myself and my many crafts and also to connect with other fearless people! I have a few things in the works , like touring events, interviews, and more adventures with myself! Reach out and connect with me!
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
I had to unlearn what true investments are. I feel that most people believe that in order to grow a business or craft you have to throw money at the most expensive equipment, classes or hottest trends; but for me I had to learn to work with what I have! I have to grow my talents on my own terms , using the tools I have! I believe unlearning this behavior is showing me the true meaning of being creative. I may not have the tools someone else uses or what I think I need, so I’ve learned to go back to the drawing board and brainstorm. I ask myself ” How can I make this work with what I have?”. Over time with this mindset I am unlearning these habits of feeling like I don’t have what I need or enough. I am learning that the universe always gives us what we need in the current moment to grow, we just have to recognize how we can make it work in our favor, because it will.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
The particular mission driving my creative journey is my heart. I am moving into this energy of only doing things I love. I truly want to live a life that is true to me, that is filled with traveling, creating and learning through life. I believe the only way I can reach this goal is with following my heart, having compassion and stepping out of my comfort zone.
