How do you start to be a photographer?

Ahem, I don't agree with what I said downstairs.

Go to mechanism photography, get a certificate ... old wizards are like this, right?

But you can find your favorite photographer to attend his online or offline courses.

Okay, let's start with a serious answer.

First of all, if you want to be a photographer, you must have a SLR first. If you are not short of money, you can buy a Canon 5D4 from Quan Huafu.

Money is tight, just buy a half-frame Canon 700D.

Usually a 50 mm fixed focal length lens is used.

After you have a camera, read the instructions carefully and use the camera's functions while watching. Description is the best course.

When you know how to use a camera, you have two ways. One is to find out your own shooting style, and the other is to find your favorite photographer or photography studio as an apprentice or assistant. Never go to the studio to study, because the studio is in assembly line mode, and the props of the studio scene are not updated for several years, and the style is very low. :)

Do you believe me?

Which of the two sets of pictures do you prefer?

Figure 1? Then our communication can't continue. Congratulations, the photo studio suits you very well. (smiling manually)

Figure 2? It's good. You can study in your favorite photographer or studio.

As for where to find a favorite photographer, this is not difficult. Weibo, Douban, etc. will have many photographers posting their works on it, just follow their favorite photographers. Or directly find a photography studio you like in the local area. If you find a good studio, you will grow up quickly. Becoming a photographer doesn't take a year or two as other interviewees said, unless you are really stupid. ......

Of course, you have to learn by yourself, but you may take many detours, so the only thing you have to do is to watch and shoot more, imitate other people's photos and shoot more, and then innovate.

Finally, I wish you become what you want to be as soon as possible. (Manual comparison)

That's my answer.

I'm @ Cai Wenchuan, a photographer with a cat on his head. I hope I can help you.

It's done.
