Just an Ordinary People

If you focus on event photography you can make quite a bit of money. It is a varied and widely sought after field of photography.

How to do it

The key trick is in choosing your market slice. You must choose a slice of the market where people want to keep memories alive in print. It must also be an event that is hard to capture for a not professional so that they will need your services.

One idea is to go to kids sports events. Get permission from the coach to click pics for the parents watching and then start clicking away. If you turn up with a huge telephoto lens like the ones used for pro coverage of events, you will be taken seriously. Make sure you get all the kids doing great action shots and then hand out flyers to all the parents watching with your web address. If you can write down the parents email address so you can email them the URL of you site then upload the pics to your web site that day and email everyone. If you have a simple shopping cart set up you can make money in a few hours as people pop in to see the pics and buy them for $20 or more a pop.  Read more...

Event photography, these days is an attractive profession. People who cover events like marriages, conferences, sports events, award ceremonies etc. are known as event photographers.

People normally believe that all you need to do to become an event photographer is to bring a camera and keep taking photographs through the event. But, the truth is actually the contrary. To become a professional event photographer one must develop certain talents demanded by the job, which can be obtained and improved by taking up specialised courses on the subject.

From the outside you may believe that as the photographer runs around just snapping that there is no method in their photography. At an event there is an objective in place that must be satisfied. Getting a large spread of great high quality photographs needs skill and a great eye. Being quick off the mark is a must to snap all those unexpected shots.

Ingenuity is a must-have for an event photographer along with an instinctive quality to sense the mood of the event. For example, a wedding has to be shot in a very different manner than a sports event. Thus, the photographer should have the quality of imaginatively capturing the mood of an occasion through his images.  Read more...
