Imposter syndrome is something that can strike anyone, although I think it’s particularly prevalent in creatives. But what is it and what does it mean for photographers?
WHAT IS IMPOSTER SYNDROME?
A loose definition of imposter syndrome defines it as a belief that you don’t really deserve success and feel like a fraud. Imposter syndrome causes us to doubt our own abilities and to believe that someone is going to catch us out as a charlatan.
Imposter syndrome can lead people to question everything they do, believing that any success is down to luck rather than qualifications, experience or skill.
