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.

Wanting to get into photography as a career (alien.top)

I am 19 years old and always enjoyed taking pictures of the outdoors and animals but not until the last few months did I actually start realizing I take some top tier photos. I’ve talked to a few people and understand a few ways it’s possible to start but I figured who better than the power of social media.

If anyone has any bit of hints or tips on how to kind of get my name out there that would be a dream come true.

I have plenty of photos I can send to show some of my work if need be!

Thank you to anyone who helps even the slightest🍻

Deffo is about networking. Go to local photography events, join local photography clubs, join local online photography groups (most have a Facebook page), etc. Become "known" in your community as a photographer. When I was first starting my first clients were all people I knew from previous workplaces, or old school friends, or my local area.
