Although the art of photography can be considered a rather unstable and uncertain path to follow is nevertheless an exciting and creative profession! Photographers can go through different stages while exploring photography.
The first stage is rather easy to be determined as the apprenticeship. It’s the time to focus on studying the technical characteristics while practicing photography. The camera becomes a part of the daily routine and the photographer explores and experiments with different kinds of shots. The more one practices the more progress they make. This is the experimental stage when the photographer is starting to put in use all the functions available in a camera. The use of the auto mode is the starting point which will later be replaced by the manual mode, a much more complex one to use.
The second stage is a much more elaborate and internal process. It’s when the photographer is starting to pose a series of questions: What kind of photographer am I? What kind of pictures do I like to take? And most importantly: What makes me happy?
A photographer should be familiar with the basic elements and possess a general knowledge of all types of photography. This is not to say that a landscape photographer can or should do what a wedding or portrait photographer does. Each photographer should choose their field of expertise and acquire a deeper understanding of the art.
Once we have acquired an adequate amount of knowledge and have a pretty good idea of the kind of photographer we would like to become, it’s the right time to choose our equipment. Although in the beginning a camera could be a somewhat random purchase or even a gift, the moment of truth has finally come. Choosing the right equipment usually coincides with a newfound need for upgrading. This change helps us reach the next level in our work. Although it’s true that money do not make a good photographer, it is also an undeniable reality that a good camera in the hands of an experienced photographer can become a major asset.
Happiness consists in turning your hobby into a career, which is the next stage to reach. It’s the stage when we anticipate a reward for all our hard work. But are we ready to handle the transition from hobby to career? Because most of the times reality can be tough to come to terms with when pleasure turns to anxiety and desire to obligation.
The final stage of this journey is when a photographer has earned the acceptance of the public for their personal style, the one that makes them stand out. This acceptance is a clear indication that they have earned the appreciation of the connoisseurs in the photography community.
