How to avoid being a bad photographer?

The biggest difference between amateur photographers and professional photographers is the problem of creating income through photography. Amateur photographers are more amateurs and enthusiasts. Playing photography is more about investing than creating income through photography. To put it bluntly, photography does not make money, or occasionally does not make much money. Professional photographers rely on photography as an art form to achieve high income. First of all, if you want to reach the level of professional photography, a lot of capital investment is inevitable. Low, medium and high-end photographic equipment, including experience and basic knowledge, as well as rich photographic experience. For example, amateurs who take photos in their spare time are different from those who work for many hours with cameras every day. Their basic photography level and experience are different. Actually, photography is a bottomless skill. To put it bluntly, no matter how you study, you can't completely and completely master all the shooting skills, methods and knowledge. Even you can't master the use of all brands and models of cameras. Too many amateur photographers yearn for the road of professional photography. The first is the need for a solid foundation. Not only should you be proficient in shooting, but you should also be able to tease the shutter. Many people don't even understand the instructions of their cameras. The second is to find the right direction. Find a professional direction suitable for your own development. Professional photographers have too many fields and too many kinds. Photo photography. Outdoor photography. Travel photography. Documentary photography ... there are many kinds. Find your main direction. For example, photo photography is mostly done by photographers. If you do it in a studio, then you need to master the knowledge of studio photography, lighting, background scenery, as well as the derived knowledge of makeup, hairstyle, clothing matching, shooting American capital and so on. Finding the right direction, systematic learning is very important. Systematic learning is also complicated, which requires patience, learning ability and indispensable enthusiasm. Many people have misunderstandings. Whether I have studied photography or not, I can shoot anything. It's actually wrong. There are many kinds of photography, from the basic equipment configuration, camera selection, lens matching, photographers in different fields are completely different. If you want to change from an amateur to a professional, you must first find your own development direction, and then practice and accumulate experience. Learn more about the updated equipment information and get in touch with different photographic equipment if possible. To a certain extent, we should establish our own photography style. Employment from low to high, step by step. Photography is a road that can't succeed quickly. Even if you are very talented, you need to do it step by step. Concepts and hype cannot become eternal classics, and only experience and dedicated investment can reflect the value of photography. I hope my answer can be of some use to you. Photographer, too.
