I've been doing photography since I was 14 , I'm 22 years old , I have more than 50 international photography contests won and I just start thinking about setting up my own business in photography. I really like your video and I'm hoping that at some stage you'll have time to make an more detailed one. Thumbs up!
Should you go to school? My take, is if you can, yes. But not for photography. For business. Major in business. Learn business. Minor in Art, or art history if you want. You could minor in photography if possible, but I think it is more versatile to go with a more general degree. Now you have a degree in business, which will serve you well in a huge array of jobs, in all fields, and allows options. Your secondary minor, or even another degree, in art or art history also allows a lot of versatility in the art world well beyond just photography. No reason to super specialize at a 4 year level.
Logan Cressler totally agree. There’s no reason to go to art school. Go to a 4 year liberal arts college and major in business or marketing, minor in photography, and take the required liberal arts courses like math and science. They’re useful tools you need for more of life than just photography.
Thank you dear friend. You make me so happy... Actually I was looking for a video like this. Now I can imagine that how much stronger are you right now. I need your more help to improve my skills.
Trevor Bihm Glad you like them! I love making them, but it can be hard working full time with a family. But do you have any video recommendations you would like to see?
First of all, i am glad that i found your channel by chance. I hope you get more support on youtube soon, because you make great quality content. Secondly I am an engineering student who is looking for a way to make his hobby into profession. I have a big question mark in my head. And that is, how to price? I mean, how can i price any work i do, like product photos, portraits, wedding shoots etc. If you can make a video explaining that I would be so happy. Keep up the good work Connor!
Alperen Sakallı that’s a great idea! I could definitely make a video on that. If you want me to help you out personally, find me on Instagram and direct message me and we can talk there. @ConnorMoriarty_Photo
