THE HUNTING PHOTOGRAPHER - SHOOTING & EDITING
To make money as a photographer you have to create work that someone will value. It’s really that simple. In the world of Hunting Photography it’s a fact that to get considered for jobs your work must meet a certain quality standard. This standard changes from brand to brand, but being able to deliver a full gallery of high-quality images is key in getting and keeping clients. Until your skillset develops to that level the rest of what you do with your photography business will make little difference. In this course we talk about how to go about thinking about shooting photos, how to get them shot in the field, and then professionally editing and delivering them. That’s a combined 20 years of doing it in the industry and we share it all. The ultimate goal for a photographer’s work is to develop his/her eye so that the camera simply becomes a tool.
