Life and photography are not easy. For a young photographer just starting out in his career, the balancing act between work and pleasure is never easy. The two are very different endeavors and although many professional photographers make their own peace with the idea of working their own “photo blog”, many more find themselves gravitating to commercial photography. A blog can be just as much fun (if not more) than professional photography. Additional info found at beastgrip.
Photography of weddings has always been a popular genre for professional photographers but in these days of social media, social networks and online communities, wedding photography has become more prominent. There is so much pressure to perform and to get results that it is easier to abandon the demands of family and friends and focus solely on one’s own projects. For some photographers, this is a good thing; they have learned that the best gifts they can give to themselves are those that take them away from the pressures of the world and provide them with something much closer to the heart: time.
The pressures of family and friends can be draining; but with a digital camera, one can simply take as many pictures as one likes and have those photos professionally printed. What does this have to do with photography? Everything! Just like any hobby, photography needs to be maintained; one can’t simply post a few photo’s online and expect miracles to happen.
The life of a photographer changes drastically the more time is spent with it. Many amateur photographers don’t realize this, but the better they become at what they do; the more money they make. What does it mean to be a photographer? It means the simple things like taking photographs; the simple joy of shooting a moving object; the simple joy of a beautiful and special smile. No matter what type of photographer you want to be, it takes dedication, practice and determination to be the best. And, most importantly, to be successful.
The two cameras that I use everyday are the Canon Rebel SLi with the E-mount lens and the Nikon D90s with the full-frame camera lens. My favorite thing to shoot is actually the outdoors. The mountains, trails, beaches and forests are my favorites. I enjoy getting up in the morning and just being able to photograph these places. Taking pictures of nature just feels so good!
To me, being a photographer is much like having a job. It is a job that requires so many sacrifices and requires so many hours; days and nights. But once you get those first few good shots, you will always know what it is like to have the best equipment, the best lenses and to know your camera. So, if you are ready to jump into the wonderful world of photography, then I highly recommend you consider buying a digital camera. These two cameras are the best ones that I have ever used.
