Photography Voice
Photography, Fashion, Make-up? I can't decide. =[?
Like most people, I've been through a lot of "phases" with what I think I'd like to do as a career, but photography has always been something I love... I went through quite a few disposable cameras as a kid, haha. However, I also think doing make-up and designing clothing would be amazing... The fashion industry is really harsh, though, so I don't know if I'd want to be a designer, but fashion photography sounds fun... Then again, there are a LOT of photographers as well... It's an expensive thing to do if you don't know where you're going [equipment, travelling, and education], and I have no idea what I'd do after I spent all of that money... I have a couple of years to go before college, but high schools pressure you to know what you want...I looked in to colleges, and I'm not sure which is best. My mom says The Art institute and such are over-advertised all over tv and overpriced...I was hoping someone could voice their opinion...Thanks for your time, and for reading my rant... >_<
my dear kaite,
my kind suggestion is dont think abt photography as ur full time career. u learn photography as part time course, along witha full time course..like computers...after learning photography take up small assignments, slowly as u getting busy with assignments u can completely shift ur career,. all successful photographers did like this..
u need to do a course of ur interest, which promises a strong career, and as asecondery option think about photography...its my honest sugestion.
