Great advice happy new year
Thank you and happy new year!
Point #1 was given to me by a mentor 20 years ago and had the most impact of anything else. Point #2 is a forever exercise and I am currently studying how cinema photographers approach their craft. Point #3 is the toughest if one works in the space that I do -beauty and fashion photography. Let's be honest, without a compelling subject who commands the camera-it's a waste of time. When practising, shoot anybody and everybody (also mentor's advice) but once further along you must be more...selective. If it's commissioned work then obviously do the best with what you are given but...for GROWTH (aka personal work) one really needs next level on camera talent.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Hayward, great video. This was my first year in photography as my hobby. I just finished making a photobook of my favourite images of 2023. When I get the book delivered, I will see what progress I have made over the last 12 months. Thank you for your videos this year, they are always very practical. Have a healthy and fun 2024. Cheers, Peter
Thank you so much and happy new year!
this was great. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Happy new year 🎉
Same to you!
For a seven minute video, there is A LOT to chew on. Thanks, Hayward! Happy New Year.
Thank you - same to you!
Great thoughts Hayward .I have always thought of Photography thinking person's art form. It is not a no brainer skill! Yes there is the technical side of it. If you don't have the settings right or the way you want them, hey the camera doesn't care. When I was a young teenager, I would play golf with my dad . I would address the ball ,grip the club , take of couple of practice swings. I hit the ball and it didn't go the direction I intended. I would ask my dad why the ball went where it did. He simply replied , because that was the direction you were aiming. I thought I was doing everything correctly, but I missed a critical step , aiming at the target. Same thing you are talking about , there are no cliff notes in photography.
Thank you so much!
Thank you. I'm a new subscriber and your content really resonates
Thank you so much!
Thank you for producing these videos. I like they are short and to the point. I am a hobby photographer and use mostly good used equipment for cost reasons and the fact that i cannot make money back to justify the cost the latest and greatest out there. I am now looking at replacing my 10 year old canon eos 7d mark II with a lighter weight mirrorless camera probably used as well. But like you I don't the best just what works for me.
Happy New Year and keep the videos coming.
Jeff, In western Mass.

If you want better photographs, put better things in front of your lens. What else do we need to know?
