Paul Sanders, Discover Still – book launch!

We’re pleased to help celebrate Krowji tenant Paul Sanders @discover_still launch of his mindful photography book!
 
 
Still: A Mindful Practice for Photographers by Paul Sanders (published Feb 2026) is a guide to using photography for emotional healing, calm, and self-discovery, born from the author’s recovery from burnout. It encourages slowing down, using the camera as a form of meditation, and finding meaning in the mundane, regardless of equipment used.
 
Key Themes and Practices:
Purposeful Photography: Shifting from “taking” photos to “receiving” them by connecting emotionally with the subject.
Mindful Techniques: Using the 5 senses exercise to connect with the environment—observing light, texture, and sounds to foster presence.
Mental Health Support: The practice helps manage anxiety and depression by grounding the mind in the present moment.
“Imperfectly Perfect”: Embracing the process over perfection, focusing on personal expression rather than technical perfection
