Janelle Brooke is a Wedding Photographer who has a college degree in photography.
When she went to school she realized that a photographer has to find his/her passion. She found that she love to photograph weddings because she enjoys to interact with people.
She started with an internship in a modeling agency. She learned how to deal with setting up the equipment to get the best of it in a picture.
Starting in the wedding photography was hard for her. It was a big investment in advertizing and equipment. That is why she advice the new photographers to use free tools like facebook, myspace, blogs, etc. That is why new photographer should have a little knowledge of everything.
She loves the details before she starts shooting. this process if you get it right it will simplify the editing process in photoshop. Editing is complex and it can make the picture look too fake. Also editing needs of a lot of inspiration to take one image and then transform it.
She thinks that the best to improve your business is giving the customer what they want. You as a photographer have to listen to the costumer to get the idea of what they are looking for and use your experience to make things happen.
This presentation was really good because I was able to hear from somebody who is working in the field all the important the keys that took Janelle to success in the real world. Thanks Janelle for telling us how it looks out there and what we can do to keep in business.
