- Great job Trent, way to find the angles.
— scott winterton on Utah vs. Georgia Gymnastics - Garry that’s one thing I see as a positive in all this. Though I’m not getting a day rate, it does at least open a few new doors to me that otherwise might not open. Even at the high school level of sports they require a UHSAA credential (different scenario, but the restricted access idea is the same) While I’m not banking on the idea of spec shooting as being my largest source of income, at least for me right now I see it as a step forward.
— Michael Mangum on Questions questions - A question I have is what about credentials? As a freelancer and especially doing spec shooting, it is so difficult to get credentials. Granted great photos may be had at events without such, but getting into the inner circle where the photos are is out. There’s also the cost of events, there are times one can’t afford the cost. I remember getting into many events just showing the press I.D., for instance the zoo. Great place to find a feature photo, but can’t afford the entrance fee now, and just to get a photo to add to the portfolio...
— Garry Bryant on Questions questions - Lol, the “no worries” was in direct reference to the no gf/wife/child/dependant thought. I have plenty of worries in my life Senor Smith. And I definitely understand the idea of not needing professional sports to make great photos. I shoot a lot of concerts, and I think some of my best images were from unknown artists at Kilby Court. And while the idea is true that you can make great images no matter what scene your in, (correct me if I’m wrong) the fact of the matter is that no matter what, even a great photo at a high school...
— Michael Mangum on Questions questions - Man, I do need your life you. No worries? You must have a good stock of Diet Coke. I’m jealous. Don’t worry. They’ll come if you decide to become a freelancer or you decide to get a girlfriend. Kidding aside, spec shooting is a bad idea. I tell kids in college it’s not. Why? It’s a means of shooting and portfolio building. Is it smart? No. But when you’re in college you have a miniature world at your disposal. No real life pressures or expenses. Basically you can do whatever you want. It’s a great time to...
— Patrick Smith on Questions questions - For the most part I don’t like tilted images, but I do experiment a little sometimes. I have found that I do tend to over-tilt though. I appreciate your comment. I do wish I could see it with a straight horizon.
— Christopher Reeves on Utes vs. Ducks - See and that’s the other thing that’s edging me toward jumping in. I’m single (shut up, Jeremy), no kids, no prospects, no worries. If there ever were a personal situation to take the risk it would be now or sometime close to now. I’m sure I’d be a lot more hesitant, if not averse to attempting it if I had a child to feed or a wife to take care of. For those that advise against the spec shooting. I can understand where you’re coming from, but the question I pose is this: If I don’t do the spec shooting, what...
— Michael Mangum on Questions questions - For me, this is way too much tilt. I really don’t care about the other players on the right and would have enjoyed this sequence much more if the horizon wasn’t tilted 45 degrees.
— Chris Detrick on Utes vs. Ducks - I agree with Garry. Who may not remember that I took a basic photography class from him at the U back in the early 90s. (I digress) Photography is a tough place to make it as a freelancer, especially in Utah, even doing all of the “non-photojournalismR 21; assignments you mentioned earlier. Hundreds, if not thousands of hobbyist photographers are now shooting what it took a professional photographer to do ten years ago. I’m certainly not saying it’s impossible. Look at Patrick (not in Utah), Jimmy, George, Steve and Doug, they are...
— Brian Nicholson on Questions questions - My two cents on the matter: The last ten years in the profession has really changed drastically. Newspapers & magazines are closing almost every week. Many of the newspapers & mags that still exist use less freelancers going instead to penny stock photo agencies. Seems anyone with a camera now can take good photos thus the competition has grown and cell phone cameras have become better, thus 0pening the world to “citizen journalists.” The problem with all this is the story-telling ability isn’t the same, but the bottom dollar is...
