In this episode of the podcast, I focus on mastering what’s within your control in photography. I share personal stories about overcoming unexpected challenges, such as weather disruptions, to emphasize the importance of capturing meaningful moments. You'll learn the value of building expertise in manual camera settings, thorough preparation, and honing your skills with the gear you already own.
THE BIG IDEAS

  • Preparation and Adaptability: Prepare for your sessions but stay adaptable. Capture meaningful moments even when plans change.
  • Client Satisfaction Over Perfection: Clients value photos that reflect their true selves more than perfect settings.
  • Maximize Current Gear: Focus on developing your skills and making the most of the equipment you have.
  • Control What You Can: Concentrate on controllable factors like lighting and composition, freeing yourself from worrying about external elements.

PHOTOGRAPHY ACTION PLAN

  1. Master Manual Settings: Spend time daily practicing manual settings, adjusting aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. Test these settings in various lighting conditions, recording your results to understand their impact.
  2. Prepare for Shoots: Create a detailed pre-session checklist: Ensure batteries are charged, memory cards are cleared, and camera settings are ready. Scout your shoot locations in advance to identify ideal shot angles and lighting scenarios.
  3. Improve Composition Skills: Dedicate weekly sessions to studying and practicing different composition techniques like the Rule of Thirds and Leading Lines. After each session, review and analyze your shots to learn what works and what needs improvement.
  4. Enhance Client Communication: Clearly discuss and agree on shot expectations with clients before the session to avoid any misunderstandings. Follow up with clients after the shoot to gather feedback and improve future sessions.
  5. Continuous Skill Development: Regularly engage in skill-building activities, such as taking online photography courses or watching instructional videos on challenging topics. Participate in photography challenges or projects to push your boundaries and expand your creative and technical abilities.
