Ever since I got my first camera, I took photos. Many of them. Over 1500 of those you can look at on my blog.
So I am a photographer, which is a safe thing to say.
But there is a difference between being THE photographer or just a photographer.
The difference is the reason why you do it and the demands you keep in mind.
But there came a day I was asked to take certain pictures. And there came more of these days.
So I began to take photos as a hired person. On weddings, family or friends portrait shoots I was present with a certain purpose.
And it was fun, even though there is a lot to consider and to learn in that area.
I mentioned getting a new camera, which I needed to increase flexibility and overall quality of the result I would deliver.
So now I shoot full-frame and with a resolution that makes cropping a thing I don’t have to think twice about. 😀
My journey as a professional (mind the many ways to interpret that adjective) photographer will go on in this year and I am excited to further evolve.
I brought you some impressions of those days I was out there ‘on purpose’:
