Hey I do it.
So I mainly do it because of the Format. I don't want to limit myself to 1:1.
Also because of copyright (people won't just screenshot your stuff and upload it somewhere else)
And somehow Astehtic. I just like the look of a framed picture.
Fair. I should've mentioned it tho.
Thanks for the thought. I tend to also photograph more ordinary people from time to time since I kind of want to fight beauty standards for myself.
But in this case thinking more about it is less about the person and more about the time I would spend since I don't have too much time for shootings (only on weekends due to school) and those are usually really packed while the person lives like 2 Hours or so away.
But generally thanks for the advice, I'll consider it a little more often from now :)
Yeah the problem is I also got to school and mostly just have time on weekends which are all full with appointments related to photography. And I'm not that mobile while that person lives in a town like 2 Hours away (if that person would live in the same city I wouldn't mind doing it but in this case other people probably just fit better into my ideas)
And yes it's stressful. I don't really have a private life but that's fine. It might sound weird but while I'm still a hobbyist yet (I want to make this my career tho) I feel like photography is so much more passion, obsession, love and life sense. It's worth the time and money invested.
And also copyright tho like to prevent people from screenshoting and claiming your work as theirs.
