No, I'm not exaggerating... If I would have approached photography this way when I started, I would have been able to make it as a photographer way earlier! And I'm sure if you approach photography in this new way, you'll make it too!

Surely the only probable genuinely honest confession, motivational speech of and for who pursue photography. No products promos, exactly the creative necessary elements. Great indeed.

@LauraBC Год назад

Thank you so much! I’m so happy to know that you feel this way about this video. All of this is what I’ve been learning through all the years I was trying to make a living with my camera so I’m very excited to know that it helped you! Thanks a lot for taking the time to drop such a meaningful comment! ❤️📸

@BGTuyau Год назад

@@LauraBC Add to this your enthusiasm and positivity -on which others have rightly commented- for your very inspiring presentation. All I might add [from my experience] to your "success formula" is the importance [and, often for me, the challenge] of perseverance.

'I was my worst enemy putting limitations on myself'. This hit hard. I know I'm very capable of doing a lot with the skills and materials I have, but I end up being my worst enemy. Thank you for this video, I needed to hear this and I love your approach!

@guerrothecookout3096 Год назад

You are such an honest photographer, I’m deeply grateful to have come across your channel. I was mortified this week because I got the chance to photograph with models and I had NO STUDIO! That thought started flowing into “what if my camera isn’t good enough”or “how am I gonna make these look cool and different” blah blah blah. Unproductive thoughts! I’m gonna figure this shoot out like I always do, make the pictures beautiful, and you’ve given me much needed reassurance. W videos and channel. Eres genial🙏

@LauraBC Год назад

Thank you so much! So nice to know that this video made you feel better. Our thoughts and self-doubts are our worst enemies! 🤦🏻‍♀️ You’ll do a great job. Once you start shooting, you’ll feel way better. Every new photoshoot is a new challenge so we get nervous. It still happens to me with big projects. 😅 Go for it! And best of luck! ❤️💪🏼📸

@roman2374 Год назад

I also really like the advice to find clients that are at the same “level” and realising that just because you can’t charge the same as a full professional doesn’t mean you can’t make some money. And this is also a spiral - once you start having an income with photography gear will (literally) pay for itself

@SmallTimeCaptures Год назад

I will be the first to admit that even this early on, I was starting to fall into the Gear Acquisition Syndrom for sure, but the only thing I ended up doing was swapping my APS-C body for a full frame (because my hobby aspect is night street photography, and my camera really wasn't holding up for the shots I was trying to take) But I fully understand that was a want more than a need! Now I run my 35mm + 85mm primes and all in the pursuit of starting a portrait/lifestyle photography business, I finished my second shoot with another model last week and I have another lined up for next week to get my portfolio underway! You have also inspired me to try more self portraiture to experiment with my style, my first studio flash arrived today so that will be an on going theme for the next few months! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the REAL + Raw rational you bring to your videos, you have pushed me forward so much since I found your channel a few months ago and I have gotten very comfortable and super happy with MY work! Big Love from Scotland, enjoy your travels!!

@LauraBC Год назад

Hi Scot! What a joy to read this message! It makes me super happy to know that my channel is been helping you! ❤️ And everything I read makes me so proud of your choices. I think a full-frame is a must! And more with the night street photography requirements. It's super easy to fall into the Gear Acquisition Syndrome... We all become a bit "geeky" about gear and we always want more and more... 😅 Good choices with the lenses for lifestyle and portrait! the 35mm is sooooo versatile on a full-frame and the 85mm is spot on for portrait photography! 👌🏼 Also, well done with your photoshoots. Building a portfolio is the most important step before start approaching potential clients. A portfolio is our best introduction as a photographer. Again, THANK YOU for your comments because knowing that you feel that way, really really motivates me to keep creating. 🙏🏼 Sending you a big hug all the way from London to Scotland! Looking forward to knowing more about your next steps in your new business! ❤️

@jcam783 Год назад

I can definitely relate ,and congrats on the shoots ! For the most part this is a hobby , but deep down I would love to turn it into something more . I have plenty of gear to get started ,so no excuses there . All the best to you .

@dinkobilic9078 Год назад

Laura, you are a Godsent! This video is for me, and I put my learning on hold for the past few years (and now a baby arrived to my life). I was on the other, extreme side of spectrum - I lived in Canada for 5 years and spent a LOT of money on my...well, a hobby. I even purchased studio lights and stands and some backdrops, always thinking I needed more. But I never spent time to learn to use what I already have. But this video put a lot of things into perspective, it's time to take a step back, take a deep breath and go back to where I departed. Subscribed!

@LauraBC Год назад

Thank you for your amazing words! And I loved to know your story. Congratssss for the baby! 😍 Totally agree with you, time to take a deep breath and take the time to nurture your passion. You already have the gear! 😍 Big love and best of luck with your come back! 💪🏼 Thanks for subscribing! :)

@Sr_iRL Год назад

I thought that I could learn everything on RU-vid. RU-vid does help a bit after the person in front of the camera talks and rambles on for 8 minutes and then gets to the point. I started listening to a photography podcast because I thought it would be like lessons but in a way it wasn’t. The person on the podcast did have courses online and I decided to give it a try and the difference was night and day compared to learning on RU-vid. What makes it the best experience, in my opinion, is that there is no ads, there are no sponsors taking video time, it just goes straight to the point. I would highly recommend that if you resonate with a photographer/videographer and they offer courses; take them. It will literally be life changing. Wish you all the best, I know we’re all trying to learn. You guys stay safe and keep on learning.

@LauraBC Год назад

I TOTALLY agree with this. On RU-vid you have to do a lot of research to find the right videos. You learn a lot but through a lot of research. When getting a course, they are very well structured, straightforward, and well produced for anyone to learn. Plus we get to support our favourite creatives. :) Thanks for being here! I hope you enjoy my channel! ❤️📸

I have recently been developing my editing skill, and it really is exciting and rewarding. Never ending, of course, but the editors have really improved in the last decade, especially noise reduction in some of them. High ISO is no longer to be feared, even when cropping is required.

I honeymooned in Thailand In about 1995 and purchased an SLR duty free, which was the midrange Minolta Alpha/Dynax/Maxxum 700si, the camera of the year, when walking around one of the Temples, I was laying on my back and doing all sorts of things to get interesting angles and a Japanese tourist had a Nikon F4 around his neck and was using it like a point and shoot, and the photos turned out as I anticipated rich colours because I was metering more of the sky with a polarising filter, light reflecting of the gold on the Temples and Palaces and no people in the frames, and now in 2024 I have gone back to film getting a Minolta Alpha 7 SLR because one piece of gear that does matter more than average is the glass and now I can buy the F/2.8 fast APO Minolta lenses that were just a dream back in the 2000’s at a fraction of their original price and later I can add a Sony Alpha 7 DSLR which has the Minolta lens Mount, just couldn’t justify the cost of getting the good glass for digital cameras but I bought what was essentially 3000 Australian dollars worth of camera and flash and vertical grip for 540 Australian dollars and all though I have this nagging, “wish I could see how that shot turned out” I will still get the excitement of waiting for the prints and the processing place I will use do professional scans of the negatives.
