The low paid/unpaid first few commercial jobs I did. Sky high expectations on a minimal budget. It literally changed my brain and made me consider my photos as a product to be delivered rather than just art or just accepting what was in focus or whatever. It was a good learning experience even if I would never do that type of work again.

Shutter drag. Start your settings with 8/8/8/8 - 1/8th second SS, f/8, ISO 800 and 1/8th flash power. If it’s too bright, reduce the flash. If it’s too dark, increase the iso before anything else because too much/too bright flash gets annoying for the subject of the photo.
They don’t want photos. They want to make you uncomfortable. They get off on the enquiry/on messaging you.
I’m in a women photographer community in the uk and there’s a few blocked numbers for guys who call photographers up to ask for increasingly sexual photoshoots and then masturbate on the call when the photographer gets uncomfortable with the request. Unfortunately blocking the number only goes so far because they can just call on withheld.
Basically, welcome to being a woman in a public space 🙄 I hate it here
