Now I am a sophomore majoring in English, but I want to work in photography in the future. Is it okay? Do you choose to practice?

Photography is divided into many aspects. I am a commercial photographer, studying advertising in China, studying commercial photography and fashion design in Paris, and being a fashion photographer for N years. Generally speaking, if you want to be a fashion or commercial photographer, you must learn photography. Amateur photography is not enough. Amateur photography can only be played forever. Maybe one day you can be an artist, but you will never be a commercial photographer. It is best to live abroad for a few years to be fashionable, because what photographers lack is never technology, but insight. In our circle, more than 95% of the new photographers came back from abroad.

If you want to be a photographer in the studio, just sign up for a class and then find a studio as an assistant for a few months. This is simple, and the technical requirements are not high. Just learn more experience.

If I am a reporter, I personally don't think this is a photographer, because I often work with media photographers, and they basically don't look at photos. Just hold the camera above continuous shooting's head, so if I am engaged in this industry, I should learn more about news.
