im 15 and want to pursue my dream as a photographer? - Selena - 03-24-2014 04:17 PM I am literally in love with my camera, although it's not a professional camera & i'm only 15, i would actually like some advice for where to start in life when im about 18 or so and want to create my own business or work for somebody else. I have been taking photos since i was about 10 or 11, so i'm thinking, maybe this is something i can continue on doing for years and years, it's my hobby! - Erraticstep555 - 03-24-2014 04:27 PM Well, good for you. If I were in your shoes, I would: 1 Study and learn different photographic techniques from books and websites 2 Save up for a professional camera 3 Follow pro photographers on Twitter/Blogs 4 Start building a portfolio, for example on Pinterest. Get followers and likes. Maybe get your own website. 5 Find a freelance photographer in your area and offer yourself as a part-time apprentice 6 Offer to take photos for your school website/magazine or for special events. 7 You can have a go at selling your photo art on deviantart.com or shutterstock.com - Fake Genius - 03-24-2014 04:30 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3pGxE4SjUI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gths8z60j_w PEOPLE WANT SEE SOMETHING INTERESTING |
