Year: 2019

The best thing about having a career in photography is that you can get to capture beautiful moments while earning great money all at the same time. You can take photos of people, places, and events for a fee. If you are still starting in the field of photography, there are many things that you need to remember. Allow me to share some of the strategies that I learned from the top photographers I met during the 2017 nature photography summit las vegas.

 

 

Before anything else, you have to understand that just because you own a good camera or equipment does not mean that you are already a pro. There are tons of things that you need to go through first. Make sure that you consider these tips:

 

Invest In A Good Camera

 

If you want to become an excellent photographer in the future, you may need to invest in a good camera. Take note that it is the tool that you will use to master your craft. Find for a camera that contains tons of great features at an affordable price.

 

Learn From Experts

 

Accept the fact that you are still in the process of acquiring knowledge and skills from different sources. As much as possible, find a way to connect with the best photographers in your area and learn from their stories. If you get lucky, you can also attend their seminars and workshops, regardless of whether or not it is free.

 

 

Keep On Practicing

 

No one got better without going through the rigorous process of regular practice and training. Recognize the fact that you are still in the early years of your career, which means that you still have several lessons to understand fully. Keep on practicing until people will start to notice your talent in photography.

 

Keep in mind that success does not happen overnight. You have to work hard in the field of photography if you want to build and establish your name in this industry.

 

Some people say that a pen and paper is the key to within. The 2014 Oklahoma City writing workshop made this evident. This workshop consisted of activities that not only sharpen your writing skills but also helped you understand yourself more. Here are some of the best takeaways to take note off.

We Write What We Know

When you think of a topic to write, it is usually about something you already know. We always start from an idea that we’ve experienced or heard off. Through writing, you dig deeper into discovering your interests, habits, fears, and worries. It opens up a door for you to find out who you are as a person. It serves as space for you to question your experiences and the knowledge you already know.

Peace And Self-Reflection

Writing often leaves a person in peace. To show their feelings and thoughts freely allows them to reflect on themselves. This peace also becomes a powerful tool for concentration. Thus, it puts the individual into a state of meditation. It calms your mind and opens you to questions such as your purpose in life. With such concentration, you become capable of identifying and clarifying your core values in life. This is quite helpful in writing especially when you wish to write about values such as love, kindness, compassion, loyalty or others.

You Open Your Heart

Our emotions let loose when we write. Being in such a state gives life to our writings; this makes it easier for our audience to imagine. By channeling out your emotions through writing, you allow yourself to let go of such feelings whether good or bad. Once you have done your piece, you can figure out what you’ve been going through.

When you write, it doesn’t have to be something completely formal. By writing informally, you open up the opportunity to discover yourself. Come to this workshop in the future if you wish to understand yourself more.

This was a brief topic in the 2014 Dallas Writers Summit. It is but normal that people worry a lot and this can cause stress and other related disorders.
