A question worth thinking about: Why are you in such a hurry to be a photographer?

Because I don't want to waste time on photography assistants, this is the mentality of ordinary photographers, accounting for about 75%. Especially after digital photography, electronic settings have solved many problems of exposure control in photography, as well as instant shooting, instant framing and instant correction. Many beginners feel that "progress is very fast", so in the unconscious complacency, they think that their photography works have reached the standard requirements. But the question is, are you sure this is enough?

Why are you so eager to be a photographer? From the first time I bought the DSLR, to the second lens, and then I learned some truth about the setting of MASP, so I bought a hot shoe flash stand with full automatic function. Judging from this posture, the photographer's appearance is all there.

By chance, the entrusted friend took the first wedding photo ... so he began to take some cases of "wedding photos". What does he think of the concept of flashing lights to fill light? He said: "I have taken several lessons in flash fill light. If the shadow is too heavy, I will jump the lamp to solve the problem. The fact is, the ceiling of the wedding banquet is black, and the jumping lamp you hit can't be reflected back. They can be photographed because of the high ISO. Many people at the scene are watching you, really because your flash flashed on him.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if there is a bad PS shot! For those who are eager to be photographers, because they have not learned the basic skills well, exposure value is always full of mistakes. When they check the screen between the shutters, they don't correct the problem immediately when they see it, and immediately jump out with a sentence "Just retouch the picture on the computer later". However, no matter how powerful the digital camera is and how high the PS technology is, it can't solve the problem of overexposure or serious difference in photographic manuscripts. Finally, it was found that there were 8 photos in 10 to be deleted. More than 1000 photos were taken, but less than 100 photos could be seen. It's almost three weeks since the new person who commissioned you to take photos handed in the manuscript, but you have to say, "I'm sorry for the computer poisoning and the loss of files. I can only give you photos of 100."

Being a photographer in a hurry is not good for anyone, especially for yourself. When the newlyweds entrust you, they screw up the once-in-a-lifetime marriage record. Although actual combat is a good way to improve photography technology, it is indeed morally unreasonable to regard other people's weddings as experimental exercises.

What grade are you a photographer? A photographer who has been engaged in wedding photography for 2 years has learned lessons and experience from mistakes, setbacks and abuse. After daring to call himself a photographer, he looked back and saw a bunch of new wedding photographers who were not afraid of death grabbing business at low prices, so he accused them on the Internet. But another friend who is a photographer in a wedding dress shop asked him ... can you use the "professional studio flash"? The senior wedding photographer didn't know how to answer, so he had to look down at his 5D3 in a daze.

Wedding photography, wedding photography, then online photography clothing photographer ... and then upgraded to online commodity photographer. If you are lucky, you can be a food photographer outside the group buying network for one year, two years and three years ... what grade are you a photographer?

Is it really your profession to be a photographer? Nowadays, in a depression, after graduation season, there will be two kinds of jobs, one is a bubble tea shop and the other is a photographer. A racquet photographer said that racquet is easy to enter, but the technical threshold is too low. As long as you are one yuan more expensive than others, customers will turn away ... The same is true for racquets. There is another case in which a science and engineering graduate doesn't know what to do after graduation. Finally, under the pressure of the elders at home, he had to take out the camera of the moisture-proof cabinet and say, I will start taking pictures tomorrow!
