Aspiring Photographer – Take 1

Happy New Year Musings!

My aspiring ‘start to better picture taking’ has now begun. A few years ago I was just aimlessly pointing a camera around, trying to get what I saw to show up with out taking into consideration technique or knowledge at all.

And that is pretty much what I did again for these photos below 🙂

Landscape:

Self Portraits:

I like to call these shots my ‘beginner babies’, because that is exactly what they are.

As I learn what my camera is capable of doing and watch beginner photographer videos on YouTube, I will hopefully be able to level up to a great photographer assistant in no time! And improve my selfie game along the way for future projects 🙂

Now that I am getting into the groove of this, I am beginning to understand why it takes 4 hours for a proper photo shoot – lol

And I am loving the process so far! Hopefully I’ll be able to figure out the guidelines to posting photos on Unsplash soon. Though I wonder, should I upload a Photoshop software? Or wait until I have better quality photos?

If you are also a beginner photographer, share what you have enjoyed learning so far. If you are a more advance photographer, what are some things you wished you had learned earlier on in your journey?

Let’s connect and see what develops (see what I did there – lol)

As always, be inspired and stay inspiring Musings!
