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 find that i cannot decide on a niche i wanna focus on for my business and i ended up with doing events and portrait photography the issue is my website is very broad when it comes to what i shoot for example id put under community events Festivals, Charity Functions, Local markets etc. and i feel like that could easily be exploited but at the same i just cant decide on one single thing to specialise in and all the youtubers ive watched emphasize the importance of having one single niche to focus on im 17 and did photogrpahy since 12 but took like a 3 year break in between and i feel like i havent shot enough in every nnche

If you are trying to make money with photography, essentially what you are doing is creating a product or service as a small business. Part of that is the marketing and promotion side of things. It's going to be really hard to catch people's attention if you try to market 15 different aspects of your photography.

It's sort of like talking in a crowded room. It's so easy to blend in with the background noise, you need to find a way to really stand out to be successful.
