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 am a amateur photographer and i have a vision that i want to produce as a passion project. i have my mood board set out, i know what nails makeup clothes lighting etc i want and to be honest i wouldn’t really call it a editorial. but i’m just wondering from lighting to props to hair and makeup, nails, stylist, models, casting, set design, location, permits, food, flights, lodging, etc what is the average cost of production? to give you more context on my vision my ideas are inspired by people like Gregory Crewdson, and William Mortensen. im and also inspired by artist Henry Tanner and sculptur Richmond Barthé.

You can shoot it with natural light, your friends in your backyard for around $20 which goes to buying snacks.

Or you can fly to another country, stay in a 5star hotel with 30 professional models, eat in fancy restaurants, have expensive clothes etc and you are paying a couple million for a shoot.
