I can definitely back you up on saying you do mature faster and absolutely HAVE to be committed. You do lose a good portion of your social life and friends, and balancing school and your photographic work is EXTREMELY hard. Pulling all nighters is another very good point. I have been on shoots that have gone till 3AM or even some that have gone as late as 5AM even after a full day of school/work. Also as you said editing will also keep you up very late. Adding onto the assisting photographers point if I may: a lot of studios are always looking for interns to help them take care of things that help the studio run smoothly. This means everything from cleaning bathrooms, windows, and dishes to shooting product shots for clients, helping out other photographers, and everything in between. Most internships are unpaid, but in exchange you will receive the opportunity to assist professional photographers, you will learn TONS about equipment, be introduced to models and other people in the industry, receive help training you as a photographer, and give you full access to the studio for your own shoots. That said if someone is interested in beginning this type of work they should definitely build up a small portfolio and look around for local studios to see what there is to offer. Sorry for rambling but I think what you are doing is absolutely incredible Hanna I know how hard it can be at times. I really wish you the best of luck and hope to continue to see your work in the future.BrianJamesPhotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15908682336875581899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790417038355095409.post-58109996777800823012010-04-07T14:08:18.643-07:002010-04-07T14:08:18.643-07:00Great tips, all so very true.Great tips, all so very true.Samantha Nandezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11751172115504571792noreply@blogger.com
