Dreaming To Be A Famous Photographer

[D. S.]

i hate carshow photogs. ive talk to some photogs sa mga carshow, well ang masasabi ko lang may iba mga weirdo may mga mayayabang. pero may iba okay naman

 

hindi ko nga alam bakit sila always present sa carshows eh wala nga silang alam sa kotse. losers. let alone some dont even own a car

 

may iba ang gaganda nga ng slr hindi naman marunong kumuha ng matinong shot.

 

may incident pa dati nasagi ng malakas nung isang photog yun kotseng display ko . hindi man lang nag sorry. dahil pipicturan niya ng maayos un model sa booth namin. gago talaga

Ouch!

 

Seriously speaking, Heto yung mga photographers na hindi Cars yung habol kundi mga models. Tatambay sila sa mga booths ng models na kakilala nila. Minsan nga may dalang magazines yung iba para papirmahan sa mga models eh (yan yung tinatawag na Fanboy Mode On).

Ouch!

sinabi mo pa. sobrang nakaka inis tingnan. pag tinanong mo kung anong kotse un display . hindi nila alam . pero pag tinanong mo un name ng model. alam na alam nila. pathetic

hi! question lang po... kung kukuha kayo ng model, magkano po kadalasan tf binabayad nyo?

 

d po ako prof... kadalasan landscape... people sa resort... flowers... aso... kabayo... at bagay bagay lang kinikuhaan ko... gusto ko sana i try yung glamour at may pagka sensual na shoot...

[Luis Ayala]

Sabi nila wala daw sa camera yan, at nsa skills lng daw ng photographet yun. As a weekend photographer, I could say that half of this is true, but you do need good lens along with exceptionally good photog skills to be able to capture exceptionally beautiful photos.

this pic was taken while we are in Husnes,Norway. A very nice country during summer.

I captured one of my friend walking alone. I felt sadness looking at this pic....Share ko lang. OK na ba to?

Nikon d3100

less costly - join open shoots. ask the organizer if may sexy shoot sila. makikita mo sila nagpopost ng ads sa mga fb groups.

 

if may pera ka naman, at gusto mo short cut, you can buy your way to sensual shoots easily. contact modeling agencies if this is the case.

marami dyan. pag group, usually nasa 1.5k to 2k (depende sa dami ng shooters). yung iba, full nude at 8k (pwede mo rin divide sa ilang shooters, pero di pwede maramihan).

 

but you need CONNECTIONS. di basta-basta papayag ang 'model' pag di ka kilala or walang referral.

[HateEternal]

Hi guys I'm quite new in this field, usually get to practice when there are cosplay events or local gigs.

[Mr. Black]

There are other venues to see attractive model other than a car show. Once your portfolio starts to show come credibility, models na lalapit sa yo.

 

sir...susundan ko mga posts mo dito hehehe.

yung iba pong photographers..iniindicate pa nila yung speed, shutter opening nila at lens pag nag post ng pics..

ganito rin po ba dito?

thanks in advance.

Anybody going to the Canon Photomarathon this Saturday (Nov 8)?

[Moronoxy]

Naka-sepia ba to? The color makes it sad. Nice composition!

 

 

 

Did you go? My cam is Nikon eh.

 

 

 

 

I did... I only got to send in an entry to the first theme. Hirap ng second theme. Hehe.

 

I am used to walking and taking pictures all day - but not here in the PH. Humidity and heat really made me buy juice, water, more juice, and cola. Hahaha. At least I walked the extra calories off!

[Moronoxy]

I used to join the worldwide photowalk by scott kelby before (2 years) but I stopped na and yes because of the same reason as yours. The heat of the sun is really something. Kahit naka-abusayaff look na ako at lahat. Lol!

 

 

 

 

Interesting! I wasn't aware of that photowalk...

 

If anything, the recent photomarathon reminded me how limited I can be when done in the confines of rules/themes. Maybe it's the thinking part that caught me off-guard. I normally just shoot what I find visually appealing. Obviously, that doesn't cut it in these kinds of competition.

[Moronoxy]

I agree with you. Tried also before at FPPF (where I took up my photography classes).. boom panes.

 

Hahaha! Would be good if we get to practice more! Mahirap lang kasi minsan wala talagang matinong kunan dito - unless mapili lang talaga ako.

[Moronoxy]

I think creativity differs in each one of us. Kanya kanyang talent lang talaga eh.

 

I am not fond of taking "ugly" pictures.. yun may texture daw. Also not into black and whites. Sabi yun daw ang dramatic.. ayoko pa din. Gusto ko colorful and only beautiful things. I love landscape and portrait photography. Hey I've experienced taking nude pictures na din. Weird feeling puro guys ang kasama ko tapos may babaeng hubad sa harap namin. Sabi ko lugi ako dapat may lalakeng model din eh. Hehe

 

 

 

 

Hahaha... I haven't been to a nude shoot before. I am into landscapes and architecture. I like bridges and anything that has arches in it (aqueduct, for example). No idea why... Portraits, not so much. I do like black and white photography, although I don't usually take/make them. I just appreciate them.

 

Baka akala ng mga fellow shooters mo sa nude shoot e naliligaw ka. Dapat dun ka kasama ng model. Hahaha

[praetorius]

Find what interests you, and build up on that. Karamihan sumasali sa "photography bandwagon" dahil na rin sa mga portraiture posts sa social networks.

 

To such extent that they eventually doubt ang capacity nila later on kasi di nila "makuha" ang mga effects na nakikita nila (nobody explained these were heavily photoshopped pala)

 

So ano ba talaga ang aim to start with? Kung gumaya sa "trending", then a dslr won't suffice. Photoshop skills is really up there nowadays.

 

Personally, i'm one you may consider as "minimalist". Lightroom with minor adjustments as much as possible.

 

Minsan i indulge in photoshop editing (portraiture) just to give in to the whims of the model and to simply be at par of what is expected.

 

Done most of the shoots, landscapes, portraits, nudes, boudoir, bodyscapes, still life, macro.

 

Wala lang oras (or energy) to carry my gears most of the time kaya nag settle nalang meantime sa camera phone for the mundane things, lol.

 

Even left my lights dyan sa pinas kasi hassle magbitbit sa travel.

 

Keep the passion burning. Otherwise you will feel you have purchased a very expensive set of gears for nothing.

 

And dun sa nagtanong if we will get the technical details sa mga shots na shared dito, i'll start the ball rolling on that on my next post sometime this week.

 

Para naman we have real sharing of ideas.

[Moronoxy]

Nyeh. Shempre pag nagshushoot ako ang attire ko pang-lalake, not sexy at all. Hehe

 

Pero nun photography class ko, kaya yata di ako gano natuto sa portraiture kse ako lagi pinapaupo sa harap pang-sample. Lugi. Lol!

 

 

 

 

Hahaha! Hingi ka dapat discount or refund!

 

 

 

[aXn O_o]

Keep shooting and unique sa mga subject ideas

[fireheart]

hello po, newbie po ako sa photography... ano po pwedeng DSLR for newbie?

[jpxmtc]

nikon d3100 or d3200

O kaya mag cellphone ka nlng na pwede kabitan ng lens.

[glut_func]

I'm not sure if I'm putting this in the right thread pero share ko lang din.

 

Hindi ako pro or eksperto pero pagdating sa photography, mahalaga talaga to know what you really want to do. Just bec everybody's doing it eh makiki-uso ka na din, pag ginawa mo kasi yun madali ka magsasawa at mararamdaman mo na it isn't the one for you pala. And then bibili ka ng pagkamahal-mahal na body at lente tapos di ka naman marunong gumamay ng tamang exposure so wala din.

 

Sa mga papasok sa sining na to, payo ko sa inyo mag research muna kayo ng husto online tungkol dito lalong lalo na sa basics on how to be creative hanggang sa mag build up sa inyo kung saan field ng photography yung mapupusuan nyo - mapa-macro man, portrait, landscape, atbp.

 

Mahalagang magamay mo ang fundamentals ng essence of photography, pag naintindihan mo yun kahit na anong subject na makita mo or gamit na dalhin mo sigurado makukuhanan mo ng magandang tira.

 

Last but not the least, wag ka magmayabang - learn to respect other shooter's style, wag na wag ka mandidikta against the approach that one photog chose to do. Each to his/her own.

 

IMHO lang.

[Mel G.]

I am enjoying it now.

[jinnyboy]

Ano maganda DSLR na di nako magrerely sa photoshop pag post production
