Graphic Designer turned Photographer

[RussellBrown]

Hello all,

Graphic Designer turned product photographer about a year ago. Learning by hard knocks and trial and error at the moment, looking to learn more by being here. I started my carrier taking shots at a college as part of my job and then working nights touching up photos at a professional photographers. Anyway work know for a company that specializes in sports identification products and apparel.

When I came on all the product shots were mainly photoshopped or line art of apparel, I quickly invested in a lighting kit, backdrop, and camera. Shooting with a Cannon 7D (60mm Macro and 50mm {which has recently died}). I've come a long way, but need to come further. I'm looking this summer to hire on a photographer intern, but need to be able to direct with more understanding.

Anyway, I hope to contribute and learn and maybe have a little fun in the middle. Glad places like this exist.

Congrats on the new position and wish you the best of luck.

Welcome aboard.

In case you haven't heard of it (or don't already have it), I would strongly suggest the book 'Light: Science & Magic'.
