Hi all, I just wanted to say hi. I'm not the most confident on forums so forgive me if i don't contribute. Cheers Jon
Hi! I'm new to this sort of thing too. Mainly because I don't have time to do all this forum stuff. But hello anyway. Hello to all!
I'm a new member too!! Hi from Liz and hi to all. I am a professional photographer and have just signed up to the forum. This is my first forum, and seems very friendly.
Hi i'm new too, recently got a dslr and now hoping to get into freelancing and event photography so any advice will be greatly appreciated
Richard, As well as a Freelance Coach, I organise and run a big Food Festival - and we are often approached by photographers in a variety of ways. Some want to be the Official Festival Photographer, others want to offer photos post-festival for PR and website purposes; some want to sell photos to Exhibitors of their stall and customers etc. So, with my "coach hat" on, I would say rather than "try and get into Freelancing" just ACT AS IF your ARE a Freelancer, and learn as you go - be brave and just step forward; yes, you might fall flat from time to time, but you will always learn and re-group for your next step. So as a starter, I would find all the local festivals in your area. I would contact the organiser and see if they are willing to let you be the Official Festival Photographer (good for the CV). You might charge them nothing, but be allowed to hand your Business Card to exhibitors and maybe send them photos of their presence at the festival for a price. Set up a Paypal account to with prices for different kinds of photos; and send an email invoice from Paypal to those that want to buy your photos. Hope this is useful...and the best of luck - have some fun! John
Hello. I'm new to this forum, too. I'm a photographer of the digital persuasion. I'm currently concentrating on sport photography. I'm also not very good at marketing myself, so some advice on that score is what I would like to learn more about here.
Very new to this Just saying hello. I have set up a facebook page, posted on photography monthly, won a few competitions and covered one wedding. I am now looking to make this my career. I am mainly looking to cover event, sport and extreme photography. Anyone with any advice will alway be greatly appreciated.
Hi to all of you! Please welcome me too, if you don't mind... I'm also a new member here and I might be too shy at first but please take care of me!!
Sometimes people do not post or comment, they just see what other people writes or critics or posts. I believe that all people over every forum has passed this point where they just watch other people and after that one fine day they decide that they would post too and some posts and some comments. When it begins there is no going back. People do not sit back forever every thing takes time and when it comes people do not remain same as before.
Yes, you are right. We can find numerous silent readers almost on every forum. Most people join a forum only for asking a single question and then they do not use the forum. Some users just came for a solution for a querry too.
