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🍻

I am sure based on comments here that my post will be downvoted to hell, wow what a circlejerk.

not sure what is wrong with having a passion and looking to make a career out of it. All this „here comes another… „ comments- yuck. Have a look at Mark Denney, he switched careers, see what you can learn from his experience. Not sure you will end up same path, but I think you have a good start/attitude: have a means to support yourself and want to pursue something else. Here is the playlist, have a look, he is someone who actually makes money instead of demoralizing people who want to get started, and are not a confirmed genius. best of luck!
