- Photos NOT OK to edit
Well, I'm not exactly new to Photography, but I am trying to find my "style" so to speak.
I've taken many courses on studio lighting and "creative" photography. I was mainly disappointed in the creative courses as I didn't really walk away with anything new to try out.
I've given up on portrait photography as I have a hard time posing people. I'm just not sure what I'm looking for when I do that. So, I took a shot at doing some sports photography. I'm a fan of sports, so it was a logical progression.
I did some shots at a professional NHL game (even though apparently I wasn't supposed to have my DSLR there). Anyway, got some great shots, but I can't exactly go to every game (that gets expensive). I did some local kids soccer team shoots and that went over pretty good as well.
I think this is the area I want to get into, it would either be that or landscape style photography. But I'm just not sure where to begin with all this. A studio is easy...it's right there, you set up the lights and you shoot. But landscape photography is harder. I need to find things to actually shoot. Living in a city I know I need to get out to get the better shots. Unless I go urban.
Argh. I need to figure out what to do.
Anyway, thanks for reading this and if you have any suggestions on how to get into more sports photography it would be greatly appreciated.
