How to become a photographer from photography assistant?

Nowadays, digital cameras are very powerful, and online forums are full of things about photography technology. None of this is the point.

As a photography assistant in a studio, I think the key is to learn the photographer's experience besides shooting, such as his shooting concept, shooting angle, how to communicate with models, lighting layout and so on. Speaking of wedding photography, what posture should the bride pose to set off her beauty? From which angle can shooting cover up the shortcomings of the groom? What kind of lighting arrangement can achieve a classical atmosphere? These are all accumulated through bit by bit experience.

From the photographer's point of view, what qualities should a good photo assistant have? You must have a tacit understanding with the photographer. In other words, the photographer doesn't have to say too much, just a gesture and a look, and the assistant immediately gets the message. All the photographer has to do is press the shutter.

Of course, this requires a good relationship with the photographer, and we should often do some trivial work, such as moving props and putting the background. It doesn't matter, these are the necessary stages of photography. There are no castles in the air, and the road to success must come step by step. Besides, you are so young.

Be open-minded, studious and diligent, and believe that success is not far away.
