A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I didn't really make a choice in the matter, it was clients who started to offer money for what I enjoyed doing anyway.

For a couple of months after getting my first DSLR (in 2010), I was shooting everything from concerts to house parties and published it all as albums on Facebook. After enough albums circulated through enough friends' and friends' friends' feeds, I eventually got a call from a couple that wanted to hire me for their wedding. The ball kept rolling from there, nowadays my photos hardly include any people anymore.
