- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Craig, this sounds exciting! Can you elaborate?Soon I will be leaving photography in Jackson. I will for the first time in 12 years be in a very competitive market. Not like I'm scared, but I have a lot of work ahead of me.
Personally, photography for me is a creative outlet that I love down to my very soul. As a film-only geek, I shoot mainly B&W so I can play with my enlargements - hand coloring, bromoils, lith printing, toning, or just plain old B&W fine printing (the hardest of them all).
I've had clients for print restoration and hand coloring, and sold a bunch of stuff over the internet and at art festivals. I teach workshops in beginner's hand coloring, as well. Do I consider myself a "pro"? Nope. I think of myself as an enthusiastic hobbyist. I don't want to shoot senior portraits or get back into weddings - that's not what moves me to pick up my camera. Different strokes for different folks!
