We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Yash Singh. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Yash below.
Yash, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today We’d love to hear about when you first realized that you wanted to pursue a creative path professionally.
I first knew that I wanted to pursue a creative/artistic path professionally when I was younger. I have always enjoyed being creative and spent many summers drawing and creating art. I had a natural interest in artistic things, which only grew stronger as I got older.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
I juggle between two careers as a photographer and influencer. I initially pursued a degree in digital media with the goal of becoming a graphic designer. However, I discovered a love for photography and began photographing models on the side to build my portfolio. While this was great experience, it wasn’t bringing in enough income, so I decided to reach out to an influencer to offer my photography services. Working with her led to more clients, and I became known as a blogger photographer, steadily gaining more paid work.
After graduating in 2017, I interviewed for a graphic design position, but didn’t get the job. That setback made me realize that I wanted to be a business owner and pursue photography full-time. As I traveled more, I discovered a passion for fashion and started my own Instagram page focused on men’s fashion and travel. This led to brand partnerships and agency work as a men’s fashion influencer.
One thing that I’m most proud of is the growth of my business. Starting as a hobby photographer, I never thought I would be a successful business owner and influencer. But with hard work and dedication, I’ve been able to turn my passion into a thriving career.
What sets me apart from others in my industry is my unique perspective and ability to combine my skills as a photographer and influencer to create visually stunning and engaging content for brands. I pride myself on delivering high-quality work not just for my clients but also for brand partnerships I get for myself.
What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
I would say the most rewarding aspect of being an artist and creative is the ability to connect with a diverse group of individuals and learn from them. As an artist, I find it incredibly fulfilling to be able to collaborate and exchange ideas with other creators, which helps me push my own boundaries and expand my skillset. Additionally, being able to create fresh and innovative content every day not only keeps me engaged and excited about my work, but also allows me to provide value to others. And of course, meeting new people – including clients who have become close friends – has been a truly enriching experience. Overall, being an artist and creative has opened up so many doors and opportunities for me to grow both personally and professionally.
How did you build your audience on social media?
Well, my journey to building a strong social media presence began when I first started sharing my photography work online. I realized that creating high-quality content was the key to gaining attention on social media. I made sure to take visually stunning and unique shots mostly while traveling wethere it was travel photography or fashion.
As I continued to create content, I also made it a priority to connect with other influencers and brands in my niche. I reached out to them for collaboration opportunities and made sure to engage with their followers, which helped me expand my reach and connect with new people.
Finally, I made sure to consistently post new content and engage with my audience to keep them interested and loyal. Responding to comments and messages, and making an effort to connect with my followers on a personal level, helped me build a strong community of supporters.
Overall, building a strong social media presence takes time, effort, and a lot of creativity. But by focusing on creating high-quality content, networking with others in your niche, and staying consistent with your efforts, you can build a following and achieve your goals on social media.
