THANKYOU!
And please if you don't know tell people who do! Photography can be a good career choice if you are business savvy and understand the strengths/weaknesses of your skill. Some photographers are famous. But some do it on the side as a secondary career or for fun. As far as the camera goes, $200 wont get you much if you want to be a professional. You would need a professional DSLR or Film SLR camera with several lenses of varying zooms, types, speeds etc. Lighting, flashes, bulbs, etc. If you want to do studio work, than you would need a space to do the work. Backdrops, etc. Side jobs...consider working in a 1 hour photo lab at your local store and learn how to develop film & digital prints. As far as classes in high school, depends on the high school and whether or not they offer photography in the cirriculum. Most colleges offer photo classes of varying sorts. You would need to designate a field you want to get into, as there are many. There are sports photograpers, wedding, nature/landscape, studio/portrait, fashion, news, movie industries, etc. There are many books on the subject that you can find in any library or book store. Read up on the subject and learn both digital, and film for both taking and developing photos. There are many facets to the world of photgraphy, find your niche, and have fun. yess u can get famous if Ur a photographer
hmm i think it is a good pay because u will have clients and clients pay
well
good luck art or media studies for a school subject.
not sure about pay.
yes plenty of famous photographers about, try martin parr, sebastio salgado (think thats spelt right), ansell adams, diane arbus, bill brandt, lewis caroll (yes he also took photo's too), Henri Cartier-Bresson, amongst others.
workin maybe at newspapers or studio, unless u have good work and can get noticed u probs have to start from the bottom as a dogs body lol.
not sure on best camera. which online is quite a good site for reviews and stuff on cameras. you really need to think what it is u want ur canera to do.
the best thing u can do to get started is go out with ur camera and take shots.
i went to college and did a photography course (just photography). u dont say how old u r tho so just have fun with it and play around. camera tossing is a fun thing to do but u need some form of light (christmas is a good time for this as it dont really work with house lights) |
