You do not need to take classes to become a photographer. Get a library card, USE IT, and experiment. If you are a visual learner, there are so many videos on the subject I am surprised anyone still goes to university for it. If you have patience, perseverance, and people around you that won't B.S. you about your work, you can do it. I am self taught and knew that I was a professional photographer when I made enough money from it to have to declare it on my taxes. :) JMHO.
How I got into photography: Parents bought a DSLR because Mum wanted the best possible photo's she could get. I got my hands on the SLR and bought a battery grip for it because my hands are big, and that's where it all started.
@yerdivue Depends on preference, of course the most common brands are Canon and Nikon. Go try them out somewhere and see what works best for your style.
This is NOT helpful. "spend time with a photographer" thats all i get? Ugh. I want to know how to do it on your own .. not gettin tips from another then 5 yrs later wen am popular the guy says he helped me learn. f*kk it. NEXT!
this video was so sad i almost cried... he says "photogr-er-ar-ph-ery" at one stage... "do i have the time..."? if your a photographer then you obviously have the time to become a photographer...
what a horrible video, thanks for finding nobody, telling them to say something random and depressing, then posting it under the name expert village....
As told, I've been an apprentice for a couple of days at a freelance photographer. I was doubting if I wanted to become a photographer, but after those few days, coming with him, doing some editting stuff and getting taught a small bit, I knew I wanted to become one.
So, next year my study will be.. Photography! Can't wait to start!
lol....a workshop 100$....then your a week end warrior...wich are a joke....if you want the title Professional Photographer then do do what im doing take a course at college, or university...and yes spending a day with a professional photographer is easyer said then done lol (most photographers wont want someone next to them during a shoot)
you can take a thousand courses at a top photography schools and be mediocre....its all about the personal talent..and vision.........what you do need is to learn how a camera functions...so..a title doesnt mean a lot
when you go for a job interview , that's the first thing they will look at, like i said unless you just want to be a week end warrior and do it for the ''art side'' of it
still nikolas shouldn't brag about his education on photography nor diss a pro who worked on his craft for years, that (education)won't mean a thing if his works are mediocre

I would personally skip all of those stages.
All you need is a camera. Thats it.
I started with no prior knowledge, and then go on and look at other work, and research.
Did Henri Cartier Bresson go out and take classes? (admittedly he was a great painter before and after his photographery work.)
Nope...He didnt, he just grabbed his Leica and went out shooting
having said that, education in photgraphy is very important, especially if you want a job. Im studying it in university nexy year
