Photography Explained Podcast Episode 173 - What Are You Trying To Do With Your Photography?

What Are You Trying To Do With Your Photography? What are your hopes and dreams? Are you happy as you are taking photos with your phone? Or do you want to be a professional photographer and earn a full-time living from your photography?

This is the starting point in learning how to take better photos, which is what this series of episodes is about. Yes, taking better photos starts with you and what you want to get out of your photography. Then, you need to decide what you want to take photos of and what you will do with the photos you have created.

You need a plan, and I will help you with this.

Once you have a plan and know what you are trying to do with your photography you can begin that wonderful voyage of photographic discovery. 

In this episode, I tell you.

• How you can work out what you want to do with your photography.
• To think about what you want to take photos of.
• To think about what you are going to do with your photos.
• What people don’t know or don’t care about when they look at your photo.
• What if I use a phone to take photos and not a camera?
• What if I use a film camera?
• And finally, what I do.

All explained in plain English, without the irrelevant detail, in less than 27 (ish) minutes!
