this is one of the other reasons. you dont get no damn followers shooting hoes. but the hoes get followers. its not the wave you want to ride if you really want bread working with brands and corporations.
Eh followers.....
I know girls that have a shyt ton of followers simply because they have blonde hair and guys on IG are thirsty as fukk.

Anyway

Finally ventured from the beach and wanted to capture some nature. Spent 16 hours shooting a wedding Saturday with this big nature lover, spent a lot of the day listening to her tell me about trees and shyt. So I went and shot that, so of course.....The one night I'm not down on the actual shore, I missed the bright pink sky over the north shore. That sucked.

One more random shot

i know what you mean...i mentioned followers cuz that IG photog mentioned it. BUT a lot of people posting for the gram are doing it for likes and followers and depending on how you want to work and who you want to work for (if you in it partially for the money) followers count. ii know photos with 5k followers booking 20k clients and photogs with 20k followers getting no money. the latter just have no idea what they're doing. but some companies wont work with a photog unless they have a minimum of 10k followers on IG, no matter what your photos look like :snoop:

Found my father's old Canon AE-1 but it's too costly to repair. So i ordered one off of Amazon. Kinda geeked to be shooting film soon
Thats what im using right now. I like film more than digital, plus the excitement of waiting to see you created is worth the wait for them to get developed.

one of you guys said you recommend having people put in part of the deposit before you see them for the shooting

can someone explain to me how you go about the process and what you use to set the deposit or whatever? im a rookie with that

do you have to make a website or something?

basically can you guys just tell me what you guys do personally

paypal or venmo, write up a contract stating the details of the shoot, as far as how much you charging, when the bread is due, and when you're delivering the photos
