how to become a professional photographer or not.

I never felt that i was good enough to write anything or even shoot anything. Blogging for me sounded like a longer version of tweeting.But alas i find myself writing or should i say blogging about why i don't like blogging. This is my first try and please excuse me if i ramble or miss spell, like i said its never been my strongest point, like so many other things in life.. I just wanted to write about how I'm trying to achieve the impossible, becoming a photographer. 

You see I'm in the process of shifting careers , I'm a full time cinematographer, director of photography, Dp, whatever , i shoot shit.. but my love of photography out ways it all.. and i finally think I'm ready to take the bull, or bullshit by the horns.. 

So far I've emailed people , in the photography industry and spoke to a couple of friends in the business but with no returning emails.. But i know i need to just get out and do it , hunt it down, like they say no rest for the wicked. 

So stay tuned ill keep you posted as to how it all goes ..

Well, here I am, stuck in a ship doing the photo thing on cruise ships so that I can save money and buy some decent equipment without needing to take out a massive loan from the bank, been working ok so far, just keeps me out of contact with possible land based jobs. At least there is other part to this job that can be beneficial to me in the future. All of the best to you all, we can make it work  our way . . . . .

I find myself in the same boat. I work fulltime in the film industry yet my heart belongs to photography.. It's almost comforting discovering people in the same boat as I'm in.

Im certain you will be doing great things with your work.

Wishing you all the best in your endeavors

Breaking My Bloginity

Posted by Tshwanelo Modise on May 15, 2013 at 12:19am 0 Comments

Bloginity sounds silly (in the coolest way) - especially because I'm not entirely new to blogging - it's one of those on-and-off interests that I am trying to keep...on. Or do consistantly, rather!

 

So, what to blog about?!

My take on Afrika Burns

Posted by reney warrington on May 13, 2013 at 3:30pm 1 Comment
