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.

yes this is under discussion but that’s bc i needed under something and there’s no rant tag so here we r. i don’t rlly want advice unless you’ve got inspiring words or experienced something similar bc i’m on a thread🥲

i’m in honors photography which is AP but we just don’t submit our work to college board yet. which means we are working on our sustained investigations, which is basically where we experiment with photography while exploring a question ig? i can’t explain it better than that sry. but although i get to use my creativity without too many limits except 1, due dates. i love taking portraits and on top of that am a junior in high school behind in her classes, i don’t have the time to find models that matches my time frame while also working on classes i actually have to put brain into. i have so many ideas for my “hobby” photography and i don’t even have time for “class photography”. i can’t quit for too many reasons i’m not gonna list. it’s just so frustrating. and i have other hobby’s that i have that i haven’t even been doing on top of that.

Yeah you learn to either have some beautiful balance between the two and everything is going great, or you can't prioritise either one and they both start going to shit. Quite literally the first week I finished college I went on to work with Converse doing my photography and doing what I love, come out of college with a D in photography, doing better than ever in the real world!

that’s so cool! where did u go to college if u don’t mind me asking
