I Used To Be a Portrait Photographer

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Once upon a time I was a wedding photographer, and this is my tale.
Thankfully, I realised this wasn't for me and I became a commercial still life photographer instead, which is much better suited to my personality type.

    I'll open a studio just so I can wear a shirt like that. And for everything else you been clickbaiting about for the past few years. Hope your back's getting better, and hope you're staying awesome, guv!

    shooting my last wedding next weekend.... been doing weddings for 14 years. So excited to be done. I love weddings, but they are the worst for photographers bodies. Now specializing in portraits and simplifying my kit. Love it.

    Now with the VR madness, I can imagine 3D product photography will be a thing. Have you tested how that could work? Product photographed in a room where people can look around and maybe interact or open new product rooms?

    As a concert or music photographer in the UK, did you go on tour with bands? Also how was it covering your local music scene? Did any of the bands you photographed make it big?

    For someone who used to cycle at a high level why don't you shoot cycling and other sports in general? It would be great to hear your insights on what that side of photography is like. How to get into it, where is the work and the do's and don'ts. Love your other work and the this channel is hugely helpful, thank you!

    I photograph my daughter at the velodrome. In short.. I need a much longer lens than my 70-210 beercan on apsc to do it justice

    Money? Stills of athletes doesn’t have a great deal of use cases…the athletic apparel brands and the bike brands themselves, maybe, but print magazines aren’t exactly flying off the shelves like they used to- For my part, I really like photographing sports, but don’t like being confined and shooting next to a bunch of other nerds with long white canon lenses. I want a better run of the field and to work even half as hard as the athletes at getting the shot

    I never considered that the stressful thing about commercial portrait photography is dealing with difficult sitters and nightmare PRs. You said the money wasn’t great when you were doing it. Is there big money in commercial portrait photography?

    Can't recognize you without the beard. You could shave it off and rob and bank and get away with it. But it sounds like life is much better doing still-life photos.
